Name and state the principal on which the hydraulic brakes of a car works.

What should be the ratio of area of cross section of the master cylinder and wheel cylinder of a hydraulic brake so that a force of 15 N can be obtained at each of its brake shoe by exerting a force of 0.5 N on the pedal ?

A : Hydraulic lift is based on Pascal’s Law. R : Hydrostatic pressure is a scalar quantity

A hydraulic breaks has brake lever piston of area 0.01 m^(2) . The wheel drum piston has area of 0.25 m^(2) .If the driver exerts a force on the lever of 10 N, find the force on the wheel drum .

Explain the working of a hydraulic brake with a simple labelled diagram.

Assertion: When brakes are applied on a wet road, a car is likely to skid. Reason: Brakes prevent rotation of the wheels, and there is not sufficient friction between the road and the whells.

Electromagnetic brakes work on the principle of electromagnetic induction. If a metallic disc or a coil is rotating in a uniform magnetic field, it will experience a torque due to induced currents set up in the disc. According to Lenz's law, induced current is in a direction so as to oppose the rotation. Hence a retarding torque is produced. The rotating wheel of a vehicle is connected to a coil placed in a uniform emf is used to charge a battery. Thus kinetic enery of wheel is stored as chemical energy. The drawback of electromagnetic brake is that induced current or retarding torque is directly proportional to speed of rotation. The speed, therefore, decays exponentially and vehicle will take a long time to stop. Thus, mechanical brakes are used simultaneously. The advantage of electromagnetic brakes is that
