EBD Technology Quiz

What is the purpose of electronic brake force distribution (EBD) in a car?

• To individually control the amount of brake force applied to each wheel

• To reduce the weight of the car

• To decrease the friction between the tires and the road

• To increase the speed of the car

What is the function of speed sensors in an EBD system?

• To measure the weight of the car

• To calculate the distance traveled by the car

• To modulate the brake force applied to each wheel

• To determine the slip ratio of each wheel

How does EBD help in preventing oversteer and understeer while braking?

• By increasing the brake force on all wheels

• By reducing the brake force on all wheels

• By deactivating the front brakes based on the car's rotation

• By activating the rear brakes based on the car's rotation

What is the role of the Electronic Control Unit (ECU) in an EBD system?

• To calculate the slip ratio of the wheels

• To measure the tire pressure

• To adjust the steering wheel angle

• To control the engine power

How does EBD contribute to driving safety on icy or rain-slick roads?

• By increasing the speed of the car

• By reducing the traction of the tires

• By compensating for different road conditions through the slip ratio of the wheels

• By detecting road conditions directly

What is the benefit of EBD when the car is loaded with luggage in the trunk?

• It decreases the brake force on the rear wheels

• It reduces the traction on the rear wheels

• It has no effect on the braking system

• It compensates for the extra weight on the rear wheels during braking

What is the purpose of antilock braking systems (ABS) in a car?

• To modulate the brake force applied to each wheel

• To lock the wheels during braking

• To increase the risk of skidding

• To decrease the safety of the passengers

What is the function of brake force modulators in an EBD system?

• To apply brake force to the wheels hydraulically

• To measure the slip ratio of each wheel

• To calculate the speed of the car

• To adjust the steering wheel angle

How does EBD help in emergency braking situations?

• By locking the tires to reduce the ability to steer

• By increasing the risk of skidding

• By preventing oversteer and understeer

• By reducing the traction of the tires

What is the role of the yaw sensor in an EBD system?

• To measure the tire pressure

• To detect the rotation of the vehicle as it turns

• To adjust the steering wheel angle

• To calculate the distance traveled by the car
