Factors that determine a vehicle's braking power are being discussed. Technician A says the coefficient of friction between the pad and rotor or shoe and drum is a factor. Technician B says heat dissipation from brake components is a factor. Who is correct?
A)A only
B)B only
C)both A and B
D)neither A nor B

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Both the coefficient of friction between the pad and rotor or shoe and drum and heat dissipation from brake components are crucial factors in determining a vehicle's braking power. The coefficient of friction affects how effectively the brake pads or shoes can slow the wheel, while heat dissipation is important because brakes can become less effective if they overheat.
