45 баллов!!! Прочитать текст и найти в нём ответы на вопрсы: мне нужны ответы в английском варианте!!! (((ТЕКСТ))) Brakes are used to slow or stop the car where it is necessary. It is one of the most important mechanisms of the car as upon its proper performance the safety of passengers depends. Car brakes can be divided into two types, namely: drum brakes and disc brakes. The drum type may be either a band brake or a shoe brake. Depending on their functions, the automobile has foot brakes and hand brakes (parking brakes). According to their mode of operation, the brakes are classified as: mechanical brakes, hydraulic brakes, airbrakes, electric brakes. Brakes are controlled by the brake pedal. Most braking systems in use today are hydraulic. This system consists of a master cylinder mounted on the car frame and wheel cylinders. When the driver pushes down on the brake pedal, it forces the piston to move in the master cylinder and brake fluid is delivered from it to the wheel cylinders. The piston movement causes brake shoes to move and the brakes are applied (the brake shoes are pressed against the brake drums). The air brake uses compressed air to apply the braking force to the brake shoes. Electric brakes use electromagnets to provide the braking effort against the brake shoes. Formerly brakes were applied only to the two rear wheels, but now all cars are equipped with all-wheels brakes. Today many improvements are being made in brakes. _____________________________________________________________ ((((ВОПРОСЫ)))) 1. What is the function of the brakes? 2.

Answer 1

1The function of brakes is to provide safety of passengers.

2Brakes are divided into drum brakes and disc brakes.

3 I know mechanical brakes,hydraulic brakes,airbrakes and electric brakes according to their mode of operation .

4Hydraulic braking systems are mostly used today.

5Brakes are controlled by the brake pedal.

6At present brakes are applied to all four wheels.

Answer 2

Function of Brakes

The function of brakes in a car is to slow down or stop the vehicle when necessary. Brakes are one of the most important mechanisms in a car because the safety of passengers depends on their proper performance [[1]].

Types of Brakes

Brakes can be divided into two types: drum brakes and disc brakes. The drum type can be further classified as a band brake or a shoe brake. Depending on their functions, cars have foot brakes and hand brakes (parking brakes) [[1]].

Brakes According to Mode of Operation

Brakes can be classified based on their mode of operation. The different types of brakes according to their mode of operation are as follows: - Mechanical brakes - Hydraulic brakes - Air brakes - Electric brakes [[1]].

Braking Systems Used Today

Most braking systems in use today are hydraulic. This system consists of a master cylinder mounted on the car frame and wheel cylinders. When the driver pushes down on the brake pedal, it forces the piston to move in the master cylinder, and brake fluid is delivered from it to the wheel cylinders. The movement of the piston causes the brake shoes to move, and the brakes are applied (the brake shoes are pressed against the brake drums) [[1]].

Control of Brakes

Brakes are controlled by the brake pedal. When the driver presses down on the brake pedal, it activates the braking system and applies the brakes [[1]].

Application of Brakes

Brakes are applied when the driver wants to slow down or stop the vehicle. By applying the brakes, the brake shoes are pressed against the brake drums or discs, creating friction that slows down or stops the car [[1]].
