When the palmaris longus muscle in the forearm is flexed, the wrist moves back and forth. If the muscle generates a force of 53.5 N and it is acting with an effective lever arm of 2.25 cm , what is the torque that the muscle produces on the wrist

1.20Nm

Explanation:

Given data

Force= 53.5N

Perpendicular distance= 2.25cm= 2.25/100= 0.0225m

The expression for the torque is given as

Torque= Force* Perpendicular distance

Torque= 53.5*0.0225

Torque= 1.20Nm

Hence the toque produced is  1.20Nm
