Hydraulic brakes use pascal’s principle. The driver exerts a force of 100 n on the brake pedal. This force is increased by the simple lever and again by the hydraulic system. Each of the identical wheel cylinders receives the same pressure and, therefore, creates the same force output f2. The circular cross-sectional areas of the pedal and wheel cylinders are represented by a1 and a2, respectively. How much pressure is transmitted in the hydraulic system? express your answer in pascals and in atmospheres.

Pressure transmitted in the hydraulic system is 100/A1 N/m² or 100/A1 pa or 100/(101325× A1) atmWhat is Pascal's law ?According to Pascal's law, whenever the pressure in a confined fluid increases at any point, it does so uniformly throughout the rest of the container.The formulas that relate to this are given below:P1 = P2 (since the pressures are equal throughout).P2 is the pressure transmitted in the hydraulic systemN.B : P= Force/ AreaTherefore we have  F1/A1 = P2F1= the force exerted by the driver = 100N  P2= 100/A1 N/m² or 100/A1 pa or 100/(101325× A1) atmYou can learn more about Pascal's law from the given linkhttps://brainly.com/question/21318730#SPJ4
