Calculate the reactive force and reactive muscle moment at Justin Verlander’s knee for a seated leg extension, with a weight of 55, 75, and 95 lbs. Assume that the leg is held at an angle ??, and if it were fully extended, then ??=0. Assume that the load is applied in a way such that it remains perpendicular to the lower leg. Justin Verlander is 1.96 meters tall and has a mass of 102 kg. (Note the units!) a. State ALL of your assumptions. b. Calculate the force and reactive muscle moments in terms of ??. c. Solve for the force and reactive moments for each load at ?? = 90̊, 60̊, 30̊, 0̊.
