- Homework Statement
- A 89.0 kg person stands on one leg and 90% of the weight is supported by the upper leg connecting the knee and hip joint-the femur. Assuming the femur is 0.650 m long and has a radius of 2.00 cm, by how much is the bone compressed?
- Relevant Equations
- weight supported by femur=0.9(85.0kg)= 76.5kg
L= 0.650m
A=(pi)(0.02m)^2=0.1256m
Thats how far I got with my equation. Help me please.
