Lets do the sum of the forces about the elbow joint.
Fm = Force of Muscle; Fe = Force Elbow; Fb = Force Ball
Sum Force about Joint = (-2.5)Fm + 12.5Fe + 30Fb = 0
(-2.5)Fm + 12.5(2.8) + 30(6.9) = 0
Fm = 96.8kg
Fm = 96.8 * 9.8 = 948.6N
Do you understand why the -2.5 is negative?
<span>
Because I put the origin at the joint. So when you go left it is negative and when you go right it is positive. </span>

Answer:
<h2>17.1 N</h2>
Explanation:
The force acting on an object given it's mass and acceleration can be found by using the formula
force = mass × acceleration
From the question
3800 g = 3.8 kg
We have
force = 3.8 × 4.5
We have the final answer as
<h3>17.1 N</h3>
Hope this helps you
