The contact point between the femur and tibia bones of the leg is at A. If a vertical force of 175 lb is applied at this point, determine the components along the x and y axes. Note that the y component represents the normal force on the load-bearing region of the bones. Both the x and y components of this force cause synovial fluid to be squeezed out of the bearing space.
