Question

A person of mass 75 kg is standing on the tiptoes of both feet. The heel is lifted just above the ground, so the foot can be treated as horizontal. There are three forces acting on each foot; the upward vertical force N exerted by the floor on the toes, the downward vertical force F sub 2 exerted by the leg bone (tibia) on the ankle (talus), and the upward vertical force F sub 3 exerted by the Achilles tendon on the heel. The distance from the toes to the ankle is 12.5 cm, and the distance from the ankle to the heel is 6.5 cm. a.)construct a model of the foot and draw a free-body diagram showing the relevant forces and distances b.)assuming the feet remain in equilibrium, determine the forces exerted by the leg bone and the Achilles tendon
