Lever Mechanics of the Human Arm 3D Render.

Diagram of a human arm demonstrating a third-class lever, with labeled components including the elbow joint as the fulcrum, muscle force applied by the biceps, load force due to a spherical weight, and the distances representing the lever of force and resistance.

This illustration depicts the mechanics of the human arm as a third-class lever, commonly used in anatomy and physics textbooks to explain muscle force, load resistance, and lever principles. It demonstrates how the biceps muscle generates force to lift a load, with the elbow acting as the fulcrum. Ideal for anatomy and biomechanics education, showing real-world applications of lever systems in the human body.
