The brake in most cars makes use of a hydraulic system. This system consists of a fluid filled tube connected at each end to a p

iston. Assume that the piston attached to the brake pedal has a cross sectional area of 3 cm2 and the piston attached to the brake pad has a 2 cross section area of 15 cm . When you apply a force of 50 Newton to the piston attached to the brake pedal, how much will be the force at the brake pad

Answer:

The force at the brake pad = 250 N

Explanation:

The hydraulic brake system works on the Pascal's Principle for pressure transmission in fluids; the pressure applied to a fluid is transmitted undiminished in all directions.

For hydraulic systems, the pressure applied to the brake pedal is transmitted undiminished through the fluid filled tube, connected at each end to a piston, to the brake pad.

Hence, mathematically,

P(brake pedal) = P(break pad)

Pressure is given as the force applied divided by the cross sectional Area perpendicular to the direction of applied force.

P(brake pedal) = (Force applied on the brake pedal) ÷ (Cross Sectional Area of the brake pedal)

Force applied on the brake pedal = 50 N

Cross Sectional Area of the brake pedal = 3 cm²

P(brake pedal) = (50/3) = 16.67 N/cm²

P(brake pad) = P(brake pedal) = 16.67 N/cm²

P(brake pad) = (Force applied on the brake pad) ÷ (Cross Sectional Area of the brake pad)

Force applied on the brake pad = F = ?

Cross Sectional Area of the brake pad = 15 cm²

16.67 = (F/15)

F = 16.67 × 15 = 250 N

Hence, the force at the brake pad = 250 N

Hope this Helps!!!

What would happen if you tried to use a prism to disperse a beam that contained only green light?​
Margaret [11]

It is determined by the nature of the green light. Because lasers create light at almost a single frequency, green laser light would appear as a thin line of pure green. Other sources of "green" light emit light at a variety of frequencies, including yellow and blue, resulting in a strong green band in the center that fades into blue-green and yellow-green at the borders.

For example, here’s a graph of the spectrum of a green LED, showing the color range: Attachment #1

and here’s a graph of the transmission spectra of several standard photographic filters, including green: Attachment #2
