Mass of car
Distance between front and back axles
Distance between center of gravity and front axle
Let and be the forces exerted by the level ground on the back and front wheels respectively.
At translational equilibrium:
For rotational equilibrium, on taking the torque about the C.G., we have:
Solving and gives
The force exerted on each front wheel =
The force exerted on each back wheel =
The force exerted on each back wheel =
