6-63 The wrecker truck of Fig. P6-63 has a weight of
15,000 lb and a center of gravity at G. The force exerted on
the rear (drive) wheels by the ground consists of both a
normal component By and a tangential component B, while
the force exerted on the front wheel consists of a normal
force Ay only. Determine the maximum pull P the wrecker
can exert when e- 30° if B, cannot exceed 0.8B, (because
of friction considerations) and the wrecker does not tip over
backward (the front wheels remain in contact with the
ground).

- In our first example, we will see that we can use a lever arm to greatly increase the torque without having to provide more force. Suppose, for instance, that an amateur plumber, unable to loosen a pipe fitting, slips a plece of scrap pipe (sometimes called a "cheater") over the handle of his wrench, He then applies his full weight of 900 N to the end of the cheater by standing on it. The distance from the center of the fitting to the point where the weight acts is 0.80 m, and the wrench handle and cheater make an angle of 19° with the horizontal (Figure 1).
