4. In a hydraulic airplane rudder control system, the diameters of the larger and the smaller cylinder, connected through a pipe, are related as 10:1. The maximum force transmitted to the rudder is 5000 N. a) What is the force that needs to be applied to a small cylinder to transmit that maximum force to the rudder? b) What is the ratio of displacements of the rudder steering mechanism and the pedals that pilots use? If the pilot sinks one of the pedals 15 cm deep, what will be the resulting displacement of the rudder steering? Suggest how rudder deflection angle can be increased (by mechanical or other means).
