During a wrestling match, a 135 kg wrestler briefly stands on one hand during a maneuver designed to confuse his opponent. By how much does the upper arm bone shorten in length? The bone can be represented by a uniform rod 41 cm in length and 1.9 cm in radius. Young's Modulus is 1.6 x 1010 N/m2. Give your answer in microns.

Answer #1

The expression for the youngs modulus is FL AAN The upper arm bone shorten in length is ds (135)(980)(041) = 2.989×10-5 m .

=29.9 microns

    During a circus act, one performer swings upside down hanging from a trapeze while holding another performer, also upside-down, by the calves. The legs (femurs) of the lower performer undergo deformation due to the upward force from the upper performer. If the upward force on the lower performer's legs is 3mg (three times her weight), how much do the bones (the femurs) in her upper legs stretch in meters? You may assume each bone is equivalent to a uniform rod...
