Constants A 71.0 kg weight lifter is doing arm raises using a 7.50 kg weight in her hand. Her arm pivots around the elbow joint, starting 40.0 below the horizontal. (See the figure(Figure 1).) Biometric measurements have shown that both forearms and the hands together account for 6.40 % of a person's weight. Since the upper arm is held vertically, the biceps muscle always acts vertically and is attached to the bones of the forearm 5.50 cm from the elbow...

Consider a person holding a bag like in the diagram, palm facing
upwards, forearm parallel to the floor, and upper arm making a
right angle with their forearm. Masses are added to the bag until
the subject can no longer comfortably keep the angle between their
upper arm and forearm at 90 degrees.

Most of the motion generated by joints in the human body are examples of levers. An example of a third class lever is the forearm; the force which generates the motion is located in between the pivot point and the resistance force. The elbow acts as the pivot point, the biceps muscle pulls up on the forearm to move the mass which is held in the hand. Imagine you are holding an object in your hand with your forearm horizontal...

2. Bill is holding a 12 kg barbell in his hand. His upper arm is perpendicular to the ground, and his elbow is flexed to produce a 40º angle at the elbow joint. His forearm has a mass of 12 kg. The distance from the elbow joint to the weight in his hand is 35 cm. The center of mass (COM) of his forearm is located 14 cm from the elbow joint. Draw a free body diagram of this scenario....
