To calculate MA = force needed/force used
Example
MA = 60/30 = 2
The mechanical advantage is 2
I could be wrong but I believe it’s 1/2
As we know that the formula of kinetic energy will be

now here we know that
m = 2 kg
v = 1 m/s
so from the above equation we have


Answer:
The smallest distance the student that the student could be possibly be from the starting point is 6.5 meters.
Explanation:
For 2 quantities A and B represented as
and 
The sum is represented as
For the the values given to us the sum is calculated as

Now the since the uncertainity inthe sum is 
The closest possible distance at which the student can be is obtained by taking the negative sign in the uncertainity
Thus closest distance equals
meters
<span> the answer is 1,500 & 1,700
