Question

The drawing shows a hydraulic system used with disc brakes. The force vector F is applied perpendicularly to the brake pedal. The pedal rotates about the axis shown in the drawing and causes a force to be applied perpendicularly to the input piston (radius = 8.99 10-3 m) in the master cylinder. The resulting pressure is transmitted by the brake fluid to the output plungers (radii = 1.51 10-2 m), which are covered with the brake linings. The linings are pressed against both sides of a disc attached to the rotating wheel. Suppose that the magnitude of vector F is 9.07 N. Assume that the input piston and the output plungers are at the same vertical level and find the force applied to each side of the rotating disc. no idea how to do this, please show work, answer should be in newtons http://www.webassign.net/CJ/11_38.gif
