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!!!

How will heat flow between objects?
alukav5142 [94]
Without an external agent doing work, heat will always flow from a hotter to a cooler object. Two objects of different temperature always interact. There are three different ways for heat to flow from one object to another. They are conduction, convection, and radiation.

A falling skydiver has a mass of 105 kg. What is the magnitude of the skydiver's acceleration when the upward force of air resis
LenKa [72]
F-free = m*g - F_air = m*a

F_air = 1.2 * m

a= (105 kg * 9.8 m.s^2 - 5*105) / 105 kg

a = 9.3 m/s

En la siguiente expresión matemáticas w=mg el peso w con relación a se relaciona con la masa m en una proporción
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

a) Directamente proporcional

Explanation:

El peso se puede definir como la fuerza que actúa sobre un cuerpo o un objeto como resultado de la gravedad.

Matemáticamente, el peso de un objeto viene dado por la fórmula;

Peso = mg

Donde;

m es la masa del objeto.

g es la aceleración debida a la gravedad.

De la expresión matemática, podemos deducir que el valor del peso de un objeto es directamente proporcional a la masa del objeto.

Por lo tanto, un aumento en la masa de un objeto provocaría un aumento en el peso del objeto y viceversa.

What affects sounds at their source? MENTION DOPPLER EFFECT AND VIBRATIONS
wel

Answer:

Doppler effect, the apparent difference between the frequency at which sound or light waves leave a source and that at which they reach an observer, caused by relative motion of the observer and the wave source. This phenomenon is used in astronomical measurements, in Mössbauer effect studies, and in radar and modern navigation.
