Question

Can someone help me find this torque?

Answer 1

When the palmaris longus muscle in the forearm is flexed, the wrist moves back and forth (the figure below). If the muscle generates a force of 46.0 N and it is acting with an effective lever arm of 22.5 cm, what is the torque that the muscle produces on the wrist?
