How does a piano pedel make the note quieter?

In a Grand Piano the piano pedal that makes the tone softer (The 'Una Corda' pedal) works by moving all of the keys slightly sideways so that the hammer inside the piano only hits two of the three strings used to make a note. In an upright piano it works by moving the hammer's resting position closer to the strings, meaning less momentum can be achieved when playing a note and therefore you get a softer tone. The Una Corda pedal only works if you are already playing quietly otherwise the difference between playing with the pedal engaged and without is not noticed. In an electric piano the tone is artificially dampened.
