Question

Calculate the mass $m$ needed in order to suspend the leg shown in (Figure 1). Assume the leg (with cast) has a mass of 14.5 kg, and its CG is 33.5 cm from the hip joint; the sling is 81.0 cm from the hip joint. Express your answer to three significant figures and include the appropriate units. $m$ = Value Units

Step 1

5 \, kg$. The distance of the center of gravity (CG) of the leg from the hip joint is $d_l = 33.5 \, cm = 0.335 \, m$. The distance of the sling from the hip joint is $d_s = 81.0 \, cm = 0.810 \, m$. We need to find the mass $m$ such that the system is in Show more…
