Lecture

Muscle Contraction: Length vs. Force

Description

This lecture explores the effects of changing the length of a muscle on the force of its contractions, demonstrating how extreme lengthening or shortening can impact the generated force. Through an experiment, the instructor adjusts the muscle length incrementally, observing changes in force and passive tension, ultimately highlighting the relationship between muscle length and force generation.
