Power assist has a brake booster, which is a vacuum assisted unit. I dont know the exact formula for the multiplying of force, but it at least doubles the effort of the drivers effort on the pedal.
Power operated....bend the steering wheel to stop if you're not ready.

A disc brake is type of brake there a rotating disc (AKA rotor) is pinched between two brake pads mounted in a caliper to make the wheel stop turning.

With mechanical/cable operated brakes the cable basically turns a screw which pushes one brake pad towards the other, pinching the rotor and slowing the bike down.

Pumping gently will reduce friction, produce less heat and help the brakes last a little longer. This procedure is not recommended if you have a truck with air operated brakes.

What is the difference between a throttle cable and a brake cable?
The throttle cable goes from the 'gas' pedal to the carburetor or throttle body to control the speed of the engine. On cars the brake cable goes to the emergency brake, on some motorcycles the brake cable goes to the brakes. (The main brakes for cars and some motorcycles are hydraulically operated, not by a cable.)
