Calculate the mass m needed in order to suspend the leg shown in the figure(Figure 1). Assume the leg (with cast) has a mass of 14.5 kg , and its CG is 34.5 cm from the hip joint; the sling is 76.5 cm from the hip joint.
Calculate the mass m needed in order to suspend the leg shown in the figure(Figure 1)....
The leg and cast in the figure below weigh 250 N, with the center of mass as indicated by the blue arrow in the diagram. The counterbalance w1 weighs 145 N. Determine the weight w2and the angle α needed so that no force is exerted on the hip joint by the leg plus cast.
The femur of a human leg (mass 10 kg, length 0.9 m) is in traction, as shown in the figure. The center of gravity of the leg is one-third of the distance from the pelvis to the bottonm of the foot. Two objects, with masses m and m2, are hung at the ends of the leg using pulleys to provide upward support A third object of 8 kg is hung to provide tension along the leg. The body provides tension...
The femur of a human leg (mass 10 kg, length 0.9 m) is in traction, as shown in the figure. The center of gravity of the leg is one-third of the distance from the pelvis to the bottom of the foot. Two objects, with masses m1 and m2,are hung at the ends of the leg using pulleys to provide upward support. A third object of 8 kg is hung to provide tension along the leg. The body provides tension as...
5. (12 points, partial credit) A sandwich board advertising sign is constructed as shown. The sign's mass is 8.00 kg. Calculate the tension in the chain assuming no friction between the legs and the sidewalk. Hinge 1.10 m Chain Problem 9-14 CG CG It is only necessary to analyze the equilibrium of one-half of the structure. We analyze the left leg. From symmetry, it can be deduced that the force the hinge gives to the left leg, FH (assumed positive...
Calculate the forces that the supports A and B exert on the diving board shown in (Figure 1) when a 56-kg person stands at its tip. Calculate the force that the support A exerts on the diving board. Ignore the weight of the board. Calculate the force that the support B exerts on the diving board. Ignore the weight of the board. Calculate the force that the support A exerts on the diving board. Take into account the board's mass...
Consider the traction apparatus shown in the figure, which applies a force to the lower-leg of a patient. Determine the magnitude and direction of this force applied by the traction apparatus if the leg is stationary. The angle is given by θ = 25 degrees and the mass hanging from the chord in the traction apparatus is m = 13 kg. Draw clearly labelled free body diagrams where necessary. QUESTION 2 [6] D С Consider the traction apparatus shown in...
Place an unknown mass at the 10 cm mark of the meter stick. Suspend from the other side a counter mass m2 = 300g and adjust its position until the system is in static equilibrium. Using, Στ = 0 calculate the unknown mass m². Remove the unknown mass and determine its mass on the laboratory balance. See Figure. This is the accepted mass. Calculate % error. % Error lexperimentalacceptedy 100 accepted X axis X X2 m m, m=? X =...
Suspend a mass m, =100g at or near the zero end of the meter stick. Move the meter stick in the support clamp until the meter stick is in equilibrium. Record this new equilibrium position as x," Using the total mass of the meter stick, calculate the clockwise and counterclockwise torques, and then calculate a percent difference. In this calculation, you will include the mass of the meter stick as if it were concentrated at its center of mass, x,...
An ACL patient is doing leg extensions to strengthen his quadriceps muscles. With no additional weight added, the patient's lower leg (shank+foot) has a mass of 6.25 kg. The center of mass of the lower leg segment is located 32 cm from the axis of rotation of the knee joint. The leg is flexed 25 degree down from horizontal. The quadriceps muscle acts through the patellar tendon, which inserts 5 cm from the axis of rotation of the knee joint...
how do i do number 8 part a and d? thanks 6. (10 pts) A patient with a broken leg was placed in traction using the system shown below at left. Once the cast is off of the foot, the system can be modeled as shown at right where m is the mass of the cast. In a most unfortunate incident, the cast slips off of the patient's foot and is flung by the traction system. In this problem, model...
