Exercise 6

Using the same force/cross-sectional area estimate as in Problem 9, and estimating the cross-sectional area of your own biceps brachii, how much force should the muscle be able to produce?
Problem 9
Muscle can generate approximately 90 N of force per square centimeter of cross-sectional area. If a biceps brachii has a cross-sectional area of 10 cm 2 , how much force can it exert?
