Exercise 17

If the biceps brachii, attaching to the radius 2.5 cm from the elbow joint, produces 250 N of tension perpendicular to the bone, and the triceps brachii, attaching 3 cm away from the elbow joint, exerts 200 N of tension perpendicular to the bone, how much net torque is present at the joint? Will there be flexion, extension, or no movement at the joint?
