Question

In the power assisted kind of brake the bellows applies force to master cylinder piston
A. Through Diaphragm Linkage
B. Directly
C. Through Mechanical Linkage
D. Through Kinematic Linkage

Answer 1

The brakes are the devices that are used to stop the vehicle or to slow down the speed of the vehicle. So there would be a kind of system or links to process the requirement action. So such a process consists of a number of links. A link is a connection of the two parts or rods.

Complete step by step answer:
So the vehicle is completely a mechanical device and the complex part of the vehicle will be processed by the mechanical linkages, similarly each device consists of different links to commit an action so the braking is system when we apply force on the brake pedal the vehicle will slow down and even stop
To fulfill this action there will be a number of links and joints that help so the bellows apply force to the master cylinder piston through the mechanical linkage only.
As we can say that the linkages are the main source for any action in the vehicles, links are constructed with a number of joints to move in a particular direction whether it is in rotary motion or linear motion.
Therefore, through the mechanical linkage the bellows applies force to master cylinder piston.

So, the correct answer is “Option C”.

Note:
Here we can be confused between mechanical and kinematic linkages because both are the concepts used in physics, so the kinematics is the motion of the body where we did not consider the forces that applied on it so it could not be the answer for our question.
