### Problem StatementA 1555-kg automobile has a wheelbase (the distance between the axles) of \( \ell = 2.85 \, \text{m} \). The automobile's center of mass is on the centerline at a point \( 1.35 \, \text{m} \) behind the front axle. Find the force exerted by the ground on each wheel.### Part 1 of 3 - ConceptualizeSince the center of mass is located in the front half of the car, there should be more force on the front wheels than the rear ones. The sum of the wheel forces must equal the weight of the car.### Part 2 of 3 - CategorizeUse the figure as a force diagram. Apply Newton's second law and sum the torques to find the unknown forces.**Diagram Description:**- A car illustration with labeled forces: - \( 2F_f \): Force at the front wheels. - \( 2F_r \): Force at the rear wheels. - \( F_g \): Gravitational force acting downward at the car's center of mass.- Dimensions are indicated: - \( d = 1.35 \, \text{m} \) from the front axle to the center of mass. - \( \ell = 2.85 \, \text{m} \) total wheelbase length.### Part 3 of 3 - AnalyzeThe torque about the front axle is zero, so we have\[\sum \tau_f = 0 = (d \cdot F_g) - \ell (2F_r)\]Thus, the force at each rear wheel is given by\[F_r = \frac{d \cdot F_g}{2\ell}\]Attempted Calculations:\[\left(1.35 \, \text{m}\right) \times (1.555 \, \text{kg}) \rightarrow \text{Incorrect calculation, check units and accuracy.}\]Re-evaluating gives:\[= \frac{2 \left(1.35 \right) \, \text{m}}{\left(2.85\right) \, \text{m}} \rightarrow \text{Check calculations.}\]Since the sum of the wheel forces equals the weight of

It is sometimes important to determine the location of a person’s center of gravity(which coincides with the center of mass because the gravitational force is uniform at the scale of the human body). This can be done with the arrangement shown intheFigure below. A light (negligible mass) plank rests on two scales that read Fg1=380 N and Fg2=320 N. The scales are separated by a distance of 2.00 m. How far from the woman’s feet is her center of gravity?
