Question

The four-wheel drive vehicle of weight W attempts to climb a vertical
obstruction at A. The center of gravity of the vehicle is at G, and the coefficient
of static friction is µs at A and B. Find the smallest µs necessary to initiate the
climb. (Hint: Slipping must impend at A and B simultaneously.)
