Question:
The figure shows the quadriceps and the patellar tendons attached to the patella (the kneecap). If the tension T in each tendon is 1.30 kN, what are the magnitude and direction of the contact force F(vector) exerted on the patella by the femur? The weight of the patella is negligible in this situation.
