Question
When a muscle lifts a load, it does so according to the "fundamental equation of
muscle contraction," also known as Hill's equation, (L + m)(V+ n) = k where L is the
load that the muscle is lifting, Vis the velocity of contraction of the muscle, and m.n.
and k are constants. Use implicit differentiation to find dv/dL.
