It would require less force because the torque for each newton of force from the biceps is greater.

It would require more force because the force is less nearly perpendicular to the moment arm.

It would require more force because the force acts closer to the heavy bowling ball. -this one selected

It would require more force because of the larger distance between the elbow and the location where the force from the biceps acts. this one selected
