Hydraulic brake system working model,
in this course introduces learners to the science and engineering behind one of the most important safety mechanisms in vehicles. This course explains how hydraulic brakes use the principle of Pascal’s Law, where pressure applied to a confined liquid is transmitted equally in all directions, allowing a small force on the brake pedal to generate a larger braking force on the wheels. Students will design and build a working model using simple materials such as syringes, plastic tubes, water, and a wheel setup to demonstrate how the braking force is applied. Step-by-step guidance makes it easy to assemble and test the system, showing how pressing one syringe (the master cylinder) transfers fluid pressure to another (the slave cylinder), stopping the wheel. The course also explores the real-life applications of hydraulic braking in cars, motorcycles, and bicycles, highlighting its efficiency and reliability. Perfect for school projects, science fairs, or engineering demonstrations, this hands-on activity develops problem-solving, creativity, and technical understanding while connecting classroom theory to real-world safety systems. howtofunda
