Question
An eighteen-wheel truck is rated at a gross (total) load carrying capacity of 260,000 lbs (including truck and trailer). If each tire has a contact area of 12" x 12", determine the tire pressure needed to safely carry the rated load. Assume weight distributed equally to all tires.

Many new cars are equipped with antilock brakes that prevent tires from sliding on slippery roads during sudden stops. A Honda Accord is traveling at a speed of 17.9 m/s (about 40 mi/h) on a snow-packed road when the driver applies the brakes. The effec- tive coefficient of static friction with and without antilock brakes is 0.764 and 0.615, respectively. How much less is the stopping distance with antilock brakes than without antilock brakes?arrow_forwardHelp me please i need send the homework today _II_ The center of gravity of the eccentric wheel is at point G.
