Exercise 20
A hand exerts a force of 90 N on a scale at 32 cm from the joint center at the elbow. If the triceps attach to the ulna at a 90° angle and at a distance of 3 cm from the elbow joint center, and if the weight of the forearm and hand is 40 N with the hand/forearm CG located 17 cm from the elbow joint center, how much force is being exerted by the triceps?
