This document appears to be an exam for a Biomechanics course, outlining 8 questions to be answered in the allotted time. It provides instructions to attempt all questions, make assumptions where needed, and indicates the point value for each question. The questions cover a range of biomechanics topics, including definitions for terms like buoyancy and viscosity; whether blood is Newtonian or non-Newtonian; electrical modeling of blood flow; modes of heat and mass transfer; stiffness and strength of the musculoskeletal system; control of body pressure; skeletal muscle characteristics; parameters related to the cardiac cycle; analysis of gait motion; friction; effects of turbulence; fatigue failure of bone; structural properties of bone and cartilage.
