Mechanical advantage = ideal mechanical advantage x efficiency = 3.5 x 0.6 = 2.1
The mechanical advantage of the inclined plane is 2.1
Buoyant force is the force that is a result from the pressure exerted by a fluid on the object. We calculate this value by using the Archimedes principle where it says that the upward buoyant force that is being exerted to a body that is immersed in the fluid is equal to the fluid's weight that the object has displaced. Buoyant force always acts opposing the direction of weight. We calculate as follows:
Fb = W
Fb = mass (acceleration due to gravity)
Fb = 64.0 kg ( 9.81 m/s^2)
Fb = 627.84 kg m/s^2
Therefore, the buoyant force that is exerted on the diver in the sea water would be 627.84 N

The total displacement is equal to the total distance. For the east or E direction, the distance is determined using the equation:
d = vt = (22 m/s)(12 s) = 264 m
For the west or W direction, we use the equations:
a = (v - v₀)/t
d = v₀t + 0.5at²
Because the object slows down, the acceleration is negative. So,
-1.2 m/s² = (0 m/s - 22 m/s)/t
t = 18.33 seconds
d = (22 m/s)(18.33 s) + 0.5(-1.2 m/s²)(18.33 s)²
d = 201.67 m
Thus,
Total Displacement = 264 m + 201.67 m = 465.67 or approximately 4.7×10² m.
