The lubrication of bone joints is a subject of ongoing medical research. two bones connected at a joint do not touch. the bones are covered in articular cartilage, and are surrounded by lubricating synovial fluid. rheumatoid arthritis results in overproduction of synovial fluid, swollen joints, and difficult and painful movement. other joint disorders degrade the synovial fluid, directly increasing the friction between the bones, resulting in painful motion.

part a

to measure the effective coefficient of friction in a bone joint, a healthy joint (and its immediate surroundings) can be removed from a fresh cadaver. the joint is inverted, and a weight is used to apply a downward force

16. a brave but inadequate rugby player is being pushed backward by an opposing player who is exerting a force of 800 n on him. the mass of the losing player plus equipment is 90.0 kg, and he is accelerating at 1.20m/s2 size 12{1 "." "20"" m/s" rsup { size 8{2} } } {} backward. (a) what is the force of friction between the losing player’s feet and the grass? (b) what force does the winning player exert on the ground to move forward if his mass plus equipment is 110 kg? (c) draw a sketch of the situation showing the system of interest used to solve each part. for this situation, draw a free-body diagram and write the net force equation.
