Where are the clutch, brake, and accelerator located in a manual transmission car?
1 Answers
In a manual transmission car, the leftmost pedal is the clutch, the middle one is the brake, and the rightmost is the accelerator. The clutch is the component in the car's transmission system that is directly connected to the engine. It is responsible for disconnecting and engaging the power and transmission system, ensuring smooth starts when the car begins to move, smooth gear shifts, and preventing overload in the transmission system. The brake, also known as the stopping device, refers to the action of stopping or reducing the speed of a moving motor vehicle or other transportation machinery. It is divided into drum brakes and disc brakes. The accelerator, also known as the throttle or gas pedal, is part of the car's fuel supply system. By controlling the amount of pedal pressure, it adjusts the engine throttle opening, controls the air intake, and the computer regulates the fuel amount, thereby controlling the engine's speed.
