4. Traction-Limited Acceleration Analysis (Longitudinal Load Transfer). Consider a 2900-
\(\rightarrow \mathrm{lb}\) front-wheel drive van undergoing friction-limited acceleration (likely the case at low speeds, for which the power-limited acceleration is quite high) on a rainy asphalt with a coefficient of 0.3. The CG is \( h=2.5\mathrm{ft}\) above the roadway, and falls \( b=4\mathrm{ft}\) aft of the front axle; the wheelbase is \( L=10\mathrm{ft}\). Considering longitudinal load transfer, estimate the maximum acceleration possible.
