The total cross-sectional area of the load-bearing calcified portion of the two forearm bones (radius and ulna) is approximately 2.3 cm2. During a car crash, the forearm is slammed against the dashboard. The arm comes to rest from an initial speed of 80 km/h in 5.1 ms. If the arm has an effective mass of 3.0 kg, what is the compressional stress that the arm withstands during the crash? Pa
What happens when the stress applied to the body is increased beyond the maximum value and is removed after some time? Select one: a. The body will not come back to its original position O b. The body will come back to its original position c. The body will be unaffected. d. The body will become hot. e. The body will not feel stress.
EXAMPLE. Assume a leg has 1.2m shaft of bone with an average cross-sectional area of 3x104m². What is amount of shortening when all of the body weight of 700 N is supported on this leg.
