The four-wheel drive all-terrain vehicle (ATV) has a mass of 300 kg with center of mass G2. The driver has a mass of 92 kg with center of mass G1. If all four wheels are observed to skid momentarily when the driver tries to move forward, what is the normal reaction on each of the rear tires? The coefficient of friction between the tires and the ground is 0.43
