A mechanical advantage less than ' 1 ' means the output <u>force</u> is less than the input
force. But <em>distance</em> is gained ... the load moves farther than the driving force moves.
An example of all this is a big father and his little 4-year-old daughter playing
on the see-saw in the park. He adjusts the board so that he's much closer
to the pivot than she is, and that way, their weights can balance each other.
It's set up so that the mechanical advantage from him to her is less than ' 1 '.
Now, look at what happens when Dad sits down on his end of the see-saw,
and pushes it down with his 180 pounds of force. At the other end, the board
is barely lifting her with a force of just 30 pounds. BUT ... as he sinks down
only 1 foot against his end of the board, <em>her</em> end rises 6 feet off the ground.
Given that:
time (t) = 20 s ,
S = ?
We know that S = ut + 1/2 at² meters
since free fall, a = g = 9.81 m/s² ; u =0 ;
S = 0 + 1/2 × 9.81 × 20²
<em> S= 1962 m</em>

Answer:
The probability is 0.2212
Solution:
As per the question:
Poisson rate, 
Now,
Let
X: time of waiting for the next vehicle on the highway
Now,
To find the probability of the next vehicle to arrive after 10 s
The probability distribution function is given by:
Now,
P(X < x) = 
For X> 0,
P(X > x) = 
P(X < 5) = 
A is only the area of one tile. It wants the area of the whole floor.
area of parallelogram is b*h=0.952. There are 9500 of them so 0.952*9500=904.4 (answer c)
