Question

1)

Approximately what magnitude force, FM, must the extensor muscle in the upper arm exert on the lower arm to hold a 7.1-kg shot put (Figure 1) ? Assume the lower arm has a mass of 2.6kg and its CG is 12cm from the elbow-joint pivot.

Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.

2) The gauge pressure in each of the four tires of an automobile is 220kPa .

If each tire has a "footprint" of 200cm2 (area touching the ground), determine the mass of the car.

3)

How high would the level be in an alcohol barometer at a pressure of 0.92atm? The density of alcohol is 0.79

FM =

Explanation / Answer


net torque = 0

M*g *L + m*g*l = Fm*x

(7.1*9.8*0.3)+(2.6*0.06)=Fm*0.025


Fm = 841.2 N

==============


P = F/A

F = P*A = (220*1000*200e-4) = 4.4e+3 N

m = F/g = 448.97 kg = 449 kg

3)


dP = rho*g*h

h = dP/gh = (0.79*1000)/(9.8*0.92*1.013*100000)


h = 8.6497*10^-4 m = 8.65*10^-4 m = 0.86 mm
