KIN 3112 Homework #3 Perform a dynamic analysis for a knee extension movement. The knee extensors insert on the tibia at an angle 0-30° and at a distance d-5.2 cm from the axis of rotation of the knee. The combined weight of lower leg and foot is F 48 N and its center of mass is r 0.27 m away from the knee joint axis. The joint angle with respect to the left horizontal is A-70 (Note: this is not...
A person is sitting with one leg outstretched and stationary, so that it makes an angle of 30.0° with the horizontal, as the drawing indicates. The weight of the leg below the knee is 45.0 N, with the center of gravity located below the knee joint. The leg is being held in this position because of the force M applied by the quadriceps muscle, which is attached 0.100 m below the knee joint (see the drawing). Obtain the magnitude of...
An ACL patient is doing leg extensions to strengthen his quadriceps muscles. With no additional weight added, the patient's lower leg (shank+foot) has a mass of 6.25 kg. The center of mass of the lower leg segment is located 32 cm from the axis of rotation of the knee joint. The leg is flexed 25 degree down from horizontal. The quadriceps muscle acts through the patellar tendon, which inserts 5 cm from the axis of rotation of the knee joint...
PROBLEM 2 Knee Extension - The angular motion of the lower leg about the knee joint, and the forces and torques produced by the muscles crossing the knee joint during knee flexions and extensions have been investigated by a number of researchers utilizing different experimental techniques. One of these techniques is discussed here. Consider the person illustrated in Fig. 10.12. The test subject is sitting on a table, with the back placed against a back rest and the lower legs...
The drawing shows a uniform horizontal beam attached to a vertical wall by a frictionless hinge and supported from below at an angle ? = 44o by a brace that is attached to a pin. The beam has a weight of 338 N. Three additional forces keep the beam in equilibrium. The brace applies a force P ¯ to the right end of the beam that is directed upward at the angle ? with respect to the horizontal. The hinge...

The drawing shows a uniform horizontal beam attached to a vertical wall by a frictionless hinge and supported from below at an angle theta = 35degree by a brace that is attached to a pin. The beam has a weight of 342 N. Three additional forces keep the beam in equilibrium. The brace applies a force P to the right end of the beam that is directed upward at the angle theta with respect to...
13 Figure 12-31 shows the anatomical structures in the lower leg and foot that are involved in standing on tip- toe, with the heel raisecd slightly off the loor so that the foot effectively contacts the floor only at point P. Assume distance a- 50 cm, distance b 15 cm, and the Calf muscle Lower leg hones person's weight W 900 N. Of the forces acting on the foot, what are the (a) magni tude and (b) direction (up or...
The figure shows a jet engine suspended beneath the wing of an airplane. The weight W of the engine is 13600 N and acts as shown in the figure. In flight the engine produces a thrust 7 of 61000 N that is parallel to the ground. The rotational axis in the figure is perpendicular to the plane of the paper. With respect to this axis, find the magnitude of the torque due to (a) the weight and (b) the thrust....
