How long must the wire be before the stress at its upper end reaches the proportionality limit, which is 8.0107N/m2 ?arrow_forwardTriceps 14- 101 2.4 cm Muscles can only contract, so they occur in pairs. In the arm, the biceps muscle is a flexor-that is, it closes the limb. The triceps muscle is an extensor that opens the limb. This configuration is typical of skeletal muscles, bones, and joints in humans and other vertebrates. Most skeletal muscles exert much larger forces within the body than the limbs apply to the outside world. Imagine that a person is pushing down on a tabletop with their hand as shown in the figure. If the person applies a downward force of 70 N with their hand (thats about 16 lbs of force) what force does the triceps tendon exert on the lower arm? The unknown force is indicated by the red arrow in the figure. Ignore the weight of the arm in your calculation. O 5.6 N 70 N 280 N 875 N 30 cm 945 Narrow_forward
- When you bend your knee, the quadriceps muscle is stretched. This increases the tension in the quadriceps tendon attached to your kneecap (patella), which, in turn, increases the tension in the patella tendon that attaches your kneecap to your lower leg bone (tibia). Simultaneously, the end of your upper leg bone (femur) pushes outward on the patella. Shown is how these parts of a knee joint are arranged. What size force does the femur exert on the kneecap if the tendons are oriented as in the figure and the tension in each tendon is 60 N?arrow_forwardWhen you carry a heavy load with one arm, why do you tend to hold your free arm away from your body?arrow_forwardPlease answer it within 30 minutes.
