Question

A schematic of the towing configuration is shown below. The car weighs 6176 lb, which is as large as the company expects their tow trucks to service. Calculate the tension in the cable just as the front of the car begins to lift off the ground. Assume the center of mass (CM) of the car is positioned exactly halfway across its length, the geometry of the wheels and front/rear of the car is symmetrical and that the coefficient of friction between the road and tires is sufficient to maintain no acceleration in the system.
