The mountain bike has a mass of 40kg with center of mass at point G1?, while the rider has a mass of 60kg with the center of mass at point G2?. When the brake is applied to the front wheel, it causes the bike to decelerate at a constant rate of 3 m/s2. Determine the normal reaction the road exerts on the front and rear wheels. Assume that the rear wheel is free to roll. Neglect the mass of all the wheels. (25%)
