The idea behind multiple gears on a bicycle -- whether it's an older "10-speed" bike or a modern mountain bike with 24 gears -- is to let you change the distance that the bike moves forward with each pedal stroke.

The accelerator pedal. Also known as a gas pedal.
Using the calf muscles in the pedal stroke; making the ankle move.
In automotive terms, it is the pedal on the right that makes the vehicle go. Also known as the "accelerator".
There's no way of telling, as that would depend on the wheel size and gear ratio, which can vary from bike to bike. The Online Gear Calculator (in the relevant links section below) is very useful for calculating the distance traveled on a single pedal stroke, if you have some parameters to input.
The DW Accelerator pedal decreases the distance between each stroke making it a necessity when speed and sensitivity is needed. The DW Turbo, however, creates a direct relationship between the foot pedal and mallet, creating large, powerful hits.
The flywheel smooths out the pulse of the power stroke and its inertia allows the crank shaft to continue rotating to bring the next piston into position to fire. Look at it like this: You could pedal your bicycle with one foot if the pedal had a flywheel on it.
Yes, as long as both are bass pedals. also known as kick drum pedals.
I'm not sure what your asking but i will give it a try. When you put your foot down on the pedal of a newer car it sends a signal to the computer that changes the timing and the amount of fuel that is injected per stroke of the piston. When in an older car that is cable driven instead of the newer wire driven I'm not sure.
When cycling forward in a straight line, the knee joint flexes and extends, rather than rotating about an axis. The rotation occurs at the hip joint, allowing the leg to move in a circular motion as the pedal is pushed downward.
Anna Hughes is best known for her book "Pedal Power: Inspiration and Ideas for the Long Distance Cyclist." This book explores her cycling journey around Britain to promote sustainable transport and raise awareness about environmental issues. She is also an advocate for sustainable living and contributes to various publications on topics related to cycling and environmentalism.
