Question

Length of upper body (including head), L = 69cm OC = 0.554m Mass of body, M = 62kg OA = 0.304m /...... Mass of head and arms, m = 8.06kg OB = 0.414m W1 = 20+8.06=28.06kg W2 = 24.8kg please help to answer Investigation2-Vertically straight back Aim The aim of investigation 2 is to compare the compression force found in investigation 1 above with the compression force in a situation where you pick up the 20 kg mass with a vertically straight back by bending your knees. 1. Draw a force diagram for a situation where the upper body is vertical. 6. Determine the magnitude of the compression force in the situation where you pick up the 20 kg mass with a vertically straight back by bending your knees and keeping it static. 7. Draw a conclusion about the best practice for picking up the 20 kg mass based on your results

in-fig-12-44-a-15-kg-block-is-held-in-place-via-a-pulley-system-the-persons-upper-arm-is-vertical-th

In Fig. $12-44,$ a 15 kg block is held in place via a pulley system. The person's upper arm is vertical; the forearm is at angle $\theta=30^{\circ}$ with the horizontal. Forearm and hand together have a mass of 2.0 $\mathrm{kg}$ , with a center of mass at distance $d_{1}=15 \mathrm{cm}$ from the contact point of the forearm bone and the upper-arm bone (humerus). The triceps muscle pulls vertically upward on the forearm at distance $d_{2}=2.5 \mathrm{cm}$ behind that contact point. Distance $d_{3}$ is 35 $\mathrm{cm} .$ What are the (a) magnitude and (b) direction (up or down) of the force on the forearm from the tri- ceps muscle and the (c) magnitude and (d) direction (up or down) of the force on the forearm from the humerus?

the-drawing-shows-a-human-figure-approximately-in-a-sitting-position-for-purposes-of-this-problem-th

The drawing shows a human figure approximately in a sitting position. For purposes of this problem, there are three parts to the figure, and the center of mass of each one is shown in the drawing. These parts are: (1) the torso, neck, and head (total mass $=41 \mathrm{~kg}$ ) with a center of mass located on the $y$ axis at a point $0.39 \mathrm{~m}$ above the origin, (2) the upper legs (mass $=17 \mathrm{~kg}$ ) with a center of mass located on the $x$ axis at a point $0.17 \mathrm{~m}$ to the right of the origin, and (3) the lower legs and feet (total mass $=9.9 \mathrm{~kg}$ ) with a center of mass located $0.43 \mathrm{~m}$ to the right of and $0.26 \mathrm{~m}$ below the origin. Find the $x$ and $y$ coordinates of the center of mass of the human figure. Note that the mass of the arms and hands (approximately $12 \%$ of the wholebody mass) has been ignored to simplify the drawing.
