When a wheelchair is about to ascend a carpet or a small step, which forces acts on the wheel(s)?
Say the wheelchair is about to ascend the carpet with both two front wheels, will it be easier to analyze both of the wheel at once or just one? which force will act then?
Say the wheelchair have 4 driven wheels, how will the FBD change when the only driven wheels is the 2 front wheels?
(no slip between the surfaces and all is done very slowly so the acceleration won't be felt and)
