The correct answer is B. The safety only prevents you from pulling the trigger, but does not stop the pin from striking the primer. For example, if you drop the firearm, the pin may hit the primer and fire the firearm. It is always responsible to keep the firearm pointed in a safe direction so that if this happens, no consequences come out of it.

Ivanshal [37]

Answer: Multicellular organism

Explanation:

Multicellular organisms refer to living things that have more than a single cell as opposed to unicellular organisms such as bacteria. Humans as well as all animals and land plants fall under this classification.

Multicellular organisms can live longer because new cells can be produced when others die. They are also larger due to the presence of many different cells which then specialize in different roles to ensure the survival of the organism.

Given that,

Electrical energy of the motor = 2280 J

Kinetic energy = 1606 J

Wasted energy in thermal and sound energy = 550 J

To find,

The efficiency of the motor in percent.

Solution,

Efficiency is defined as the ratio of useful output energy to the total energy.

Total energy = 2280 J

Useful energy = 1606 J

\eta=\dfrac{1606}{2280}\times 100\\\\=70.43\%

So, the efficiency of the motor is 70.43%.
