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.

The pipe assembly of the figure is supported by a fixed support at point A. A couple-moment and a force are applied at points B and C, respectively. In Cartesian coordinates, the applied couple-moment is MB = -150 k N-m, and the applied force is Fc = + 200ĵ Newtons. You may neglect the weight of the pipe assembly. 1. Draw a FBD which is suitable for solution of this problem, when seeking the unknown force and moment reactions at the fixed support, Point A. You may use the existing drawing given below. Your FBD must clearly/correctly show the force and moment reaction vectors. Use double arrowheads to distinguish moment vectors from force vectors. 2. Calculate F°MA, which is the moment generated at A due to the force applied at Point C. 3. Write the equations of equilibrium and solve to find the reactions at Point A. Specifically, find the force-reaction vector, A and the moment-reaction vector, *MA-
