. The forces exerted by the bicep muscle and acting on the elbow when a 12 kg barbell is being curledcan be modeled based on the diagram above. The bicep muscle can be treated as a vertical cable. Themass and length of the forearm are 2 kg and 32 cm, respectively. The center of mass of the forearm is adistance of 14 cm from the point P, while the bicep connects to the forearm at a point 4.5 cm from P.a) Determine the tension in bicep muscle and the force of the humerus acting downward on the elbowat point P. b) Assuming the tension in the bicep muscle continues to be oriented vertically, determinethe tension in the bicep muscle and the force acting at P after the barbell has been raised by an angleof 30 relative to the horizontal.
Four objects are situated along the y axis as follows: a 1.98-kg object is at +2.94 m, a 3.08-kg object is at +2.49 m, a 2.43-kg object is at the origin, and a 3.99-kg obgect is at -0.496m where is the center of mas of these objects?
