The transit method requires watching the light output of a star over long periods of time. A transit occurs when the planet crosses in front of its star from earths point of view. Since there is a small object (the planet) now blocking some of the star, it appears to dim a little bit for a while until the planet passes. If we are in a position where that occurs regularly (most paths of planets do not happen to be on the line of sight between earth and their star) we can deduce the period of orbit. From the amount of dimming and the period you can estimate the mass
A. IMA: 4
The Ideal Mechanical Advantage (IMA) is given by:
where
is the input distance
is the output distance
For the pulley system in this problem, 
and 
, so the IMA is
B. MA: 3.59
The actual mechanical advantage (AMA), or simply the Mechanical Advantage (MA), is given by
where 
is the output force and 
is the input force. For the pulley system in this problem, 
and 
, so the MA is
C. Efficiency: 89.8 %
The efficiency of a machine is equal to the ratio between the MA and the AMA:
Therefore, in this case,
Answer:
Explanation:
Has an acceleration directed towards center of its path
Answer:
"Narrow the focus of research question"
Explanation:
O Narrow the focus of research question
This is good! You can still use your question, but focus in on something so you have a proper research project.
O Add another research question
Would adding another question to an already broad question help? No.
O Use the very first source you find for your project
If your question is too broad, you should not use whatever you see first as it may be incorrect or does not answer the question
O Change the scope of your project
You could, but if you have a set scope for your project (a) you might not be able to change it (b) you don't need to restart
Have a nice day!
I hope this is what you are looking for, but if not - comment! I will edit and update my answer accordingly. (ノ^∇^)

Answer:
A car traveling south with its cruise control set
Explanation:
Turning could cause anything to slow down but going forward could mean that anything could go faster.
