Explain how anatomical pulleys affect the magnitude and direction of a muscle force (Fms)
What will be an ideal response?
ANS: Anatomical pulleys (always single pulleys) do not affect the magnitude of Fms but do change the
direction of pull. The change in action line generally brings the action line away from the joint
axis, thus increasing the moment arm or rotatory component of the applied force.
