Q1. Biomechanics Based Design (10 Marks) You are designing a pair of pliers based on the size of your hand b a Ꮎ F a. Measure the breadth of your hand (1 Mark) b. Determine how many standard deviations your hand breadth size is away from the average, using the anthropometry table in the Anthropometry slides. (2 Marks) c. Assuming your hand is the smallest (if less than average) or largest (if larger than average) for the design population, determine the range of hand breadths that can use your pliers using a symmetrical standard deviation from average. (1 Mark) d. Using your hand breadth, determine the largest force your pliers can exert on an object if a = 3*b = 9 cm, and you exert a 200 N force on the pliers (6 Marks)
