What is the maximum possible acceleration of the vehicle


he engine of a 1000 kg car generates thrust. This force is applied at the interface of the wheels and the road. It is the friction of the tire against the road that propels the car forward. This friction can be related to the normal force by Fr = ?N. The CG of the vehicle is located .5 m up from the road and the wheel axles are located 1 m ahead and 1.5 m behind the CG. What is the maximum possible acceleration of the vehicle without having the wheels ‘spin' if the vehicle is rear wheel drive?
