Question 2(8 marks)
Consider a person pertorming strentitier coversises using a chubbeil. The forces acting on the Arm and a madel of the system are sthewn in the figere.
Point O is the axis of ratation of the shouldier joint, A is the point of attachment of the deltold muscle to the humerus, point 3 is che cevere of graity of the arm, and point C is the centre of gravity of the dumbibell, Points A and B are at distances of a=17cm and b=33cm, from the shoulder respectively (see top figure). Fru is the force applied by the muscle and R is the reaction force at the joint 0.
The mass of the dumblell is Fr0=6.524kg. The magnitude of the muscle force is estimated to be FA=1051N, at an angle of =18. The reaction force R makes an angle with the horizontal of =122.
a) Determine the magnitude of the reaction force R.
(2 marks)
b) Determine an equation in terms of the reaction force magnitude (R) for the weight of the arm, W.
(3 marks)
c) If W=47N, find the length from the shoulder joint to the dumbbell, C .
