In a cargo plane the center of gravity must be between the


In a cargo plane, the center of gravity must be between the front and rear landing gears in order to maintain a torque equilibrium. The front landing gears help counteract the torque provided by the rear landing gears in this case. A jet transport has a weight of 1.00 106 N and is at rest on the runway. The two rear wheels are 17.8 m behind the front wheel, and the plane's center of gravity is 11.0 m behind the front wheel.

(a) Determine the normal force exerted by the ground on the front wheel.

N

(b) Determine the normal force exerted by the ground on each of the two rear wheels.

N
