Electric Power Steering exercise

What is the primary function of Electric Power Steering (EPS) in a vehicle?

• To enhance the vehicle's audio system

• To replace the vehicle's braking system

• To assist the driver in moving the steering wheel

• To increase fuel consumption

Which component of the EPS system detects the position of the steering wheel?

• Steering Position Sensor

• Electric Motor

• Vehicle Speed Sensor

• Electronic Control Unit

How does EPS contribute to energy efficiency?

• By requiring frequent maintenance

• By using a hydraulic pump that runs continuously

• By using an electric motor that only works when needed

• By increasing the vehicle's weight

What role does the Electronic Control Unit (ECU) play in the EPS system?

• It provides mechanical force to the steering wheel

• It measures the vehicle's fuel efficiency

• It detects road conditions

• It processes sensor data and controls the electric motor

Which of the following is NOT an advantage of Electric Power Steering?

• Improved fuel economy

• Better energy efficiency

• Increased maintenance requirements

• Integration with electronic systems

What does the torque sensor in the EPS system detect?

• The position of the steering wheel

• The amount of torque applied to the steering wheel

• The temperature of the engine

• The speed of the vehicle

How does EPS adjust the level of assistance provided?

• By changing the vehicle's color

• By adjusting the tire pressure

• Based on vehicle speed, steering wheel position, and road conditions

• By altering the vehicle's suspension system

Which component is responsible for converting rotational motion into linear motion in an EPS system?

• Vehicle Speed Sensor

• Fuses and Relays

• Electric Motor

• Rack and Pinion or Electric Gearbox
