Aweightlifter is attempting a biceps curl with a 200 n barbell. the moment arm of the barbell about the elbow joint is 40 cm. the moment arm of the elbow flexor muscles is 4 cm. how much force must be produced by these muscles to hold the 200 n barbell in static equilibrium?

Weight of the barbell W = 200 Ndistance of the joint is r = 40 cm = 0.4 mtorque created by the weight at the joint is                  τ = F*r                     = 200 N*0.4 m                     = 80 N.mat equilibrium condition ,    Στ = force*distance - 80 N.m = 0             F'*0.4 - 80 N.m = 0             F'*0.4 = 80          force F' = 200 N

Sorry i don’t know what to do
