A bicep muscle shown in Fig. P2.3 can apply a force F measured in Newtons (N) as a function of the elbow angle ϕ, measured in degrees as described by the quadratic equation F(ϕ) = 6ϕ − 0.04ϕ2.
For a bicep force of F = 200 N, solve the equation for ϕ by each of the following methods: factoring, completing the square, and the quadratic formula.
Using your solution from part (a), determine the elbow angle ϕ where the force exerted by the bicep is maximum. In addition, calculate the maximum force Fmax.
Plot F versus ϕ and clearly indicate the maximum force on the graph. Also clearly label the x-intercepts on the graph.
Two masses m1=4 Kg and m2=12 Kg are
connected with string and pulled with a force
F=28 N that makes an angle 0=53° with a
smooth horizontal surface as shown in the
figure. Find the tension in the string
(Newton).
