Air brakes allow you to use less force when hitting the brakes. Heavy equipment takes a lot of force to make them stop and without the air brakes we would have to use a lot of strength in order to stop the vehicle.

Because of friction, Friction is what causes moving objects to slow down and eventually stop. This is an important science idea we can use to describe the force that pushes back on a moving object and makes it slow down and stop.

Pull the transmission shifter into LOW or 1 to allow the engine to help stop the vehicle. Grab the parking brake and use it to stop the vehicle without locking up the rear brakes. Stopping distance is greatly increased with only the parking brake so steer away from objects or other vehicles.
The brakes automatically adjust every time you back up and use the brakes to stop. The automatic adjustment is common in most automobiles.
Mostly it's because vehicles that don't have 4 wheel disc brakes are designed to use the front disc brakes to stop your vehicle. All the force needed to stop is taken out on the front brake pads and rotors and that's why it is important to keep an eye on the wear of your pads. Once they go away, your rotors will quickly follow, then you have a whole bigger mess to deal with.
No, they use air pressure or actually the lack of air pressure to stop the vehicle. The brakes are fully on until pressure builds up in the tank releasing the brakes. When you push the brake pedal this removes air from the system and applies the brakes.
