What can you say about the velocity of a moving body that is in dynamic equilibrium? Draw a sketch of such a body using clearly labeled arrows to represent all external forces on the body.
Why are the forces exerted on the outside world by the limbs of our bodies usually much smaller than the forces exerted by muscles inside the body?
A person carries a plank of wood \({\rm{2}}\;{\rm{m}}\) long with one hand pushing down on it at one end with a force \({{\rm{F}}_{\rm{1}}}\)and the other hand holding it up at \({\rm{50}}\;{\rm{cm}}\) from the end of the plank with force \({{\rm{F}}_{\rm{2}}}\). If the plank has a mass of \({\rm{20}}\;{\rm{kg}}\) and its center of gravity is at the middle of the plank, what are the magnitudes of the forces \({{\rm{F}}_{\rm{1}}}\) and \({{\rm{F}}_{\rm{2}}}\)?
