The table presents the mass percentages for various body segments. The moments of inertia for the foot, leg (shank) and thigh, and the distances between their respective centers of mass and the hip joint, are shown in the figure. A male participant has a total moment of inertia for rotations about the hip for these three segments of 2.06 kg*m. What is his whole-body mass? 0.1052 kg.m Head & Neck Trunk Upper Arm Forearm Hand Thigh Shank Foot Segment Percentages of Total Body Weight Males Females 0.30 m 0.45 m 6.94 43.46 2.71 1.62 0.61 14.16 4.33 1.37 0.53 m 6.68 42.58 2.55 1.38 0.56 14.78 4.81 1.29 0.0504 kg-m 0.0038 kg-m The table presents the mass percentages for various body segments.

Answer rating: 100% (QA)

To solve for the wholebody mass of the male participant we should first recognize that the moment of inertia I provided 206 kgm2 is for rotations abou... View the full answer
