A loading car is at rest on a track forming an angle of 25? with the vertical. The gross weight of the car and its load is 5500 lbf, and it is applied at a point 30 in. from the track, halfway between the two axles. The car is held by a cable attached 24 in. from the track. Determine the tension in the cable and the reaction at each pair of wheels (that is determine the forces exerted by the track surface on the wheels of the car;

Note: Wheels are part of the car, do not consider them separately, include them in the outline of the car when drawing a FBD).

24 in. 25 25 in. 25, in. G 30 in.
