Chapter 3, Problem 10IP
Two children sit on opposite sides of a playground seesaw. Joey, who weighs 220 N, sits 1.5 m from the axis of the seesaw, and Suzy, who weighs 200 N, sits 1.7 m from the axis of the seesaw. How much torque is created at the axis by each child? In which direction will the seesaw tip?

Two lifter's knees are of interest at a specific moment in their lifts. In both lifts,
the knee extensor torque is 100 Nm, requiring quadriceps tendon/patella
ligament forces of 1000 N (about 220 Ibs). Despite equivalent knee torques and
quadriceps forces, patellofemoral joint forces are higher on the knees of lifter A.
Briefly explain why.
