QUESTION 17 The insertion for the vastus lateralis is as follows: (if needed, use your mini skeleton model for a visual reference) a. Fibular head b. Posterior surface of the medial tibial condyle. c. Anteromedial aspect of the proximal tibia d. Posterior calcaneus via achilles tendon e. Tibial tuberosity via the quadriceps/patellar tendons

Use the following information to answer questions #2, #3, #4. An individual is performing a hamstring curl exercise and is positioned similarly to the image on the right. Here is what you know: • Femur is horizontal • Knee flexed 25° above horizontal. • Mass of 15kg attached to the leg • Length of the tibia is 0.6 2. (1pt) What is the length of the moment arm of the ankle weight relative to the knee joint center? 3. (1pt) How much torque is created at the knee by the ankle weight? 4. (1pt) if the moment arm of the hamstring muscle is 0.05m, how much force must the hamstring muscles generate to keep the leg in a condition of static equilibrium?
