Figure 4.11
-Fig. 4.11 illustrates an otolith near the membrane surface of the utricular macula, with the head tilted sideways by angle è. Dendrites near the otolith illustrate the geometry of the otolith-membrane-dendrite interaction. Sketch the free body diagram with three forces acting on it: its weight the normal force and a force parallel to the surface layer of the otolithic membrane Give the reasoning behind your choice of any coordinate system chosen.
