Tech- A is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Leverage is defined as using a tool to gain mechanical influence. The measure of the benefit gained depends on what kind of lever is used and how it is utilized.
  • Leverage is designed in such a way that it can reproduce the force from your leg many times before any force is transferred to brake fluid.
  • The brake pedal size and the measure of leverage received depends on the overall design of the brake system.
  • The second-order lever is used in the brake pedal. The brake pedal applies leverage to populate the force employed to the master cylinder. The effort needed to drive a load depends on the corresponding distance of the load and the work from the fulcrum. The proportion of load and work is known as mechanical advantage.
