Question

A hydraulic clutch of a motor car works as follows: A foot pedal with a mechanical 
advantage of 2,5:1 acts on the master cylinder which is 15 mm in diameter. Hydraulic 
fluid is displaced to the slave cylinder which is 20 mm in diameter. The force from the 
slave cylinder on the clutch is 850 N and the foot pedal moves 70 mm when pressed 
in.
1.1 Determine the force which must be applied to the foot pedal.
1.2 Determine the distance that the slave cylinder will move if the foot is depressed 
fully.
