There are many different sizes and styles of harp. Typically the larger ones, like in a symphony orchestra, do have pedals while smaller ones do not. The pedals facilitate a wider range of notes than what you could get without them.
Ashton manufacture drum pedals with a flame and V logo for their digital drum sets.
Most people don't consider it a percussion instrument, as most percussion involves directly striking the surface that makes the sound (thus the definition of percussion), whereas depressing piano keys cause hammers to strike stretched strings. Due to the fact that a Piano has strings, it is usually classified with guitars, harps, and other stringed instruments as a Chordophone. The classification is arguable though, as pianos have many similarities with the xylophone, vibraphone, and marimba, which are considered percussion instruments. As per my 5th grade music class, it is a percussion instrument and is listed as such in many 5th grade music books. The second paragraph of Wikipedia's page on Pianos briefly addresses the classification issue (see related link).
No, the English horn (in F) is the tenor oboe. The alto oboe is the oboe d'amore which is in A. Disagree: the English Horn is an ALTO-pitched instrument in 3-foot F. The oboe (in 2-foot C) is a SOPRANO instrument. The oboe d'amore is pitched between soprano and alto, so is called MEZZOSOPRANO in pitch. A 4-foot oboe is at TENOR pitch, but is usually misnamed the baritone or bass oboe. For guidance, simply check the saxophone family at the same (or very close) lengths and pitches. The 1 1/2 foot instrument is SOPRANINO, the 2-foot instrument is SOPRANO, the 3-foot ALTO, and the 4-foot TENOR. Then BARITONE for 6-foot pitch and BASS for 8-foot pitch. We can the add the 12-foot pitch and call it SUBBASS, then 16-foot pitch is CONTRABASS (there is no saxophone at the 16-foot pitch, but there is a 16-foot CONTRABASS tubax [look it up]). The sarrusophone family are also conical double reed woodwinds, made of brass with a wide bore. They are named exactly as are the saxophone family; logically, from SOPRANINO 1.5-foot to CONTRABASS 16-foot..
The pedalboard on the organ is laid out exactly like the regular keyboards, except the "keys" (pedals) are much larger because they are played with the feet. Beginning with low "C", they go up to the "G" two and a half octaves above that. They are connected to the largest (deepest) pipes in the organ. They play the deep bass notes.

The different types of bicycle foot pedals available in the market include platform pedals, clipless pedals, and toe clip pedals. Platform pedals are flat and provide a large surface area for the foot. Clipless pedals require special cycling shoes with cleats that attach to the pedal. Toe clip pedals have a cage that secures the foot in place with adjustable straps. Each type of pedal offers different benefits for cyclists based on their preferences and riding style.
This type of brake is called a coaster brake, or a foot brake.
There are three main types of pedals for bicycles: platform pedals, clipless pedals, and toe clip pedals. Platform pedals are the most common and have a flat surface for your foot to rest on. Clipless pedals require special cycling shoes with cleats that attach to the pedal for a secure connection. Toe clip pedals have a cage that your foot slips into to help keep it in place while pedaling.
The traditional type are pulled by person on foot and are called rickshaws. The wheeled type in which a driver operates the foot pedals of a bicycle-type front are called becaks.

Flat pedals are basic pedals where the rider's foot rests on a flat surface, providing freedom to easily remove the foot. Clipless MTB pedals use a cleat system to attach the rider's shoe to the pedal, offering better power transfer and control. For mountain biking, clipless pedals are generally preferred for more technical terrain and efficiency, while flat pedals are often chosen for beginners or those who prioritize easy foot removal.

Clipless pedals require special cycling shoes with cleats that attach to the pedals, providing a secure connection between the foot and pedal. This allows for more efficient power transfer and control. Flat pedals, on the other hand, are standard pedals that do not require special shoes and offer more freedom of movement for the foot.
