How much pressure is transmitted in the hydraulic system considered in Example 14.3? Express your answer in atmospheres. Consider the automobile hydraulic system shown in Figure 14.18. Suppose a force of 100 N is applied to thebrake pedal, which acts on the pedal cylinder (acting as a "master" cylinder) through a lever. A force of 500 Nis exerted on the pedal cylinder. Pressure created in the pedal cylinder is transmitted to the four wheel cylinders.The pedal cylinder has a diameter of 0.500 cm and each wheel cylinder has a diameter of 2.50 cm. Calculate themagnitude of the force F, created at each of the wheel cylinders. A10.5 cmF, 0.040 m0.20 mPedalF= 100 NcylinderF22.5 cmWheelcylinderFigure 14.18 Hydraulic brakes use Pascal's principle. The driver pushes the brake pedal, exerting a forcethat is increased by the simple lever and again by the hydraulic system. Each of the identical wheel cylindersreceives the same pressure and, therefore, creates the same force output F2. The circular cross-sectional areasof the pedal and wheel cylinders are represented by A1 and A2, respectively.
