43) 46 2. 5. A parked car on inclined pavement. These equations provide the brake force and reaction forces under the front and rear tires. 46) Example 46 Increasing the inclination angle. 2). By increasing the inclination angle, the normal force under the front tires of a parked car decreases and the normal force and braking force under the rear tires increase. The limit for increasing φ is where the weight vector mg goes through the contact point of the rear tire with the ground. Such an angle is called a tilting angle.
1. 15. Illustration of a wheel and its dimensions. Front tires, especially on front-wheel drive vehicles, wear out more quickly than rear tires. 7 Wheel and Rim When a tire is installed on a rim and is inflated, it is called a wheel. A wheel is a combined tire and rim. The rim is the metallic cylindrical part where the tire is installed. Most passenger cars are equipped with steel rims.
