Answer:
The torque about his shoulder is 34.3Nm.
The solution approach assumes that the weight of the boy's arm acts at the center of the boy's arm length 35cm from the shoulder.
Explanation:
The solution to the problem can be found in the attachment below.
Answer:
293.7 degrees
Explanation:
A = - 8 sin (37) i + 8 cos (37) j
A + B = -12 j
B = a i+ b j , where and a and b are constants to be found
A + B = (a - 8 sin (37) ) i + ( 8cos(37) + b ) j
- 12 j = (a - 8 sin (37) ) i + ( 8cos(37) + b ) j
Comparing coefficients of i and j:
a = 8 sin (37) = 4.81452 m
b = -12 - 8cos(37) = -18.38908
Hence,
B = 4.81452 i - 18.38908 j ..... 4 th quadrant
Hence,
cos ( Q ) = 4.81452 / 12
Q = 66.346 degrees
360 - Q = 293.65 degrees from + x-axis in CCW direction
