Concept explainers

Center of Gravity of a system

The centre of gravity is a property that is based on the geometry of a rigid body or any particle. It is described as an equilibrium point or a hypothetical location where the total weight of the body is concentrated.

A person is holding a mass of 13 kg in their hand in equilibrium. One can picture this as the forearm being a thin uniform rod with a mass of 2.5 kg and length of 36 cenitimeters (the hand is at the end of the rod). The bicep exerts a force on the forearm at an angle of say 60 degrees exerted on a point 7 centimeters from the elbow. There are also forces on the elbow itself (in the x and y direction). What is the magnitude of the total force exerted on the elbow in Newtons? 600
