8₁ 02 9. The diagram of the leg shows the femur (1) and tibia (2). The quadriceps muscle (3) applies a force to the lower leg via a tendon (4) that is embedded with the kneecap (5). If the force applied by the muscle to the tendon is F 570 N, what is the force of the femur on the kneecap, if the leg is in equilibrium? A simplified model of the leg is shown next to the diagram. The leg bones are represented by two beams attached by a pin. The tendon is modelled by a rope and the kneecap acts like a pulley. The tendon above the kneecap makes an angle 8, = 38° with respect to the vertical, and the portion of the tendon below the kneecap makes an angle of 6₂ = 10° with respect to the vertical. Enter the x component, followed by the y component. Answer 1 of 2: Answer 2 of 2: Submit All Answers

The following problem model your leg as a system of two beams attached to each other. In this model, your leg is extended. To keep your leg in that position, a force T is exerted in the tendon which must balance the force of gravity of your lower leg and the force of gravity on your foot. Find the necessary tension on the tendon to keep the leg extended when the tendon is at angle of 25° with the tibia. Assume the lower leg has a mass of 30,6 kg and the foot, a mass of 1,27 kg. The leg is extended at an angle of 40° with the vertical and the tension of the tendon is located at a point one fifth of the way down the leg. 25.0° Quadriceps - Tendon - Tibia F
