When a car is accelerating on a horizontal road , friction acts in the forward direction on the rear wheel and in the backward direction on the front wheel . But I am not able to understand why the friction acting on the rear wheel is greater in magnitude than the friction acting on the front wheel ? Is this because the car is accelerating forward and the net force should act in the forward direction ?
