Question: A 2 0 1 0 - lbf rear - wheel drive tractor carrying 9 0 0 lbf of gravel starts from rest and accelerates forward

A 2010-lbf rear-wheel drive tractor carrying 900 lbf of gravel starts from rest and accelerates forward at 1.93 ft/s2. Please note that for rear-wheel drive vehicles, static friction is applied only to the rear wheels.
1. Determine the reaction at each of the two rear wheels A. FA = i + j (lbf)
2. Determine the reaction at each of the two front wheels B. FB = i + j (lbf)
