  2. Brake fluid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brake_fluid

    The brake fluid in the tubes, in turn, pressurizes the brake slave cylinders, which are on each wheel. [22] [23] The slave cylinder pistons press down the brake pads. They encompass and compress the brake disk, and the rotation of the wheels slows down. In addition to transmitting pressure, brake fluid also keeps the brake system working optimally.

  6. Mathematics education in the United States - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematics_education_in...

    Mathematics education has been a topic of debate among academics, parents, as well as educators. [4] [9] [195] [38] Majorities agree that mathematics is crucial, but there has been many divergent opinions on what kind of mathematics should be taught and whether relevance to the "real world" or rigor should be emphasized.

  7. Brake pad - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brake_pad

    Brake pads should be checked at least every 5,000 miles for excessive or uneven wear. Although brake pad wear is unique to each vehicle, it is generally recommended that brake pads be replaced every 50,000 miles, [6] while brake discs (or rotors) typically last longer, needing replacement every 70,000 miles.

  8. Fluid mechanics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluid_mechanics

    Fluid dynamics is a subdiscipline of fluid mechanics that deals with fluid flow—the science of liquids and gases in motion. [4] Fluid dynamics offers a systematic structure—which underlies these practical disciplines—that embraces empirical and semi-empirical laws derived from flow measurement and used to

  9. Brake-specific fuel consumption - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brake-specific_fuel...

    BSFC numbers change a lot for different engine designs, and compression ratio and power rating. Engines of different classes like diesels and gasoline engines will have very different BSFC numbers, ranging from less than 200 g/(kW⋅h) (diesel at low speed and high torque) to more than 1,000 g/(kW⋅h) (turboprop at low power level).
