A school bus varies on weight depending on how big it is and how many passengers are in it. Normal school buses go from 10,000 pounds to a whopping 36,000 pounds.
The most common cause of a stuck handbrake is when the rear brake shoes "rust/stick" onto the drums. This can normally be released using "percussive maintenance" (IE Hitting it). Hit the drum with a hammer once, sharply, on the stuck side. Experience is require to know how hard is "hard enough," so start gently, and if that does not work, hit harder. If access to the drum is limited, put a socket over one of the wheel nuts/bolts, and hit the socket. DO not hit the wheel or nuts/bolts directly as this may cause damage. (Hitting the drum is OK, as cosmetic damage is much less of an issue than it would be if you hit the wheel directly. Hitting the nuts/bolts may prevent a socket fitting so making removal to replace tyres difficult, hence the suggestion to put a socket over the nut/bolt, and hit that.) This problem could also be caused by a seized brake cable (again possible due to rust) a faulty hand-brake lever, a failure of the components inside the drum (A detached brake lining, or a detached component within the drum.) It should also be noted that some vehicles have a hand-brake that operates through a brake-calliper onto disks (rotors) rather than in a drum. In the above mentioned other causes percussive maintenance is unlikely to be of help, and the assistance of an experienced motor vehicle service engineer should be sought.
chances are that one you ride the brakes, or you tend to brake at the last moment...
how much is a penny weight of 10k gold worth
Weight of drum + Weight of soil = weight of drum and soil. Get some scales.
Too much heat would result in brake damage, which is absorbed in the brake drum.

A new brake pad and new drums together will cost about 250 dollars or somewhere in that neighborhood. It depends on different brake pad and drum brands.
Depends on the vehicle and grade of drum you want to buy.
Brake drums typically can withstand temperatures that exceed 700 degrees Fahrenheit. A brake drum would have to experience temperatures of more than 1000 degrees in order to explode.
depends on the size of the drum. If you want to the weight to include the weight of the drum then the material which the drum is made and its specifications such as wall thickness and type of opening would be required.
It depends on what brand or what the drum is made of average weight Is about 30-40 pounds.

Only the rear brakes are drum brakes. The front brakes are disc brakes. To answer your question, twist the end wing nut by your drum brake. It tightens and adjusts how much you have to press on your rear brake lever.
The Brake Booster increases the force applied to the brake lever so that the brake disc or drum recieves more force. Without it the brakes would be much harder to apply.
rear brake shoes are pretty much the same on all cars and truck. basically you remove the tire remove the brake drum retaining clips. unadjust the brake adjuster. this is doen by removing the plug on the back of the brake backign plate. then turn the star to let the brake shoes back off from the drum. once the pressure is off the shoes the drum will come off. then you remove the shoes by taking off the springs and stuff that hold the shoes on. putthe new shoes on and the drum. readjust the brakes with turning the star the other way. spin the drum to see if they are free or stuck if they are stuck you went too much. unadjust them to get them to where they barely rub. and you are done.
