The rear-wheel-drive bakkie (pick-up), with its centre of gravity at G, is to negotiate a bump from a standing start in the position shown. The static and kinetic coefficients of friction between the tires and the pavement are 0.18 and 0.15 respectively. Determine the largest slope angle θ that can be negotiated assuming that the drive wheels are spinning. Determine the largest slope angle θ that can be negotiated assuming that the drive wheels are not spinning. Determine the largest slope angle θ that can be negotiated assuming that the bakkie has front-wheel drive and the drive wheels are spinning. Determine the largest slope angle θ that can be negotiated assuming that the bakkie has front-wheel drive and the drive wheels are not spinning.
