Mechanical advantage is resistance force divided by effort force:

MA = \( \frac{F_r}{F_e} \) = \( \frac{350 lbs.}{70 lbs.} \) = 5

To simplify a radical, factor out the perfect squares:

\( \sqrt{8} \)
\( \sqrt{4 \times 2} \)
\( \sqrt{2^2 \times 2} \)
2\( \sqrt{2} \)

Kinetic energy is the energy posessed by a moving object. Potential energy is stored energy in a stationary object based on its location, position, shape, or state.

Calculate the number of vans needed by dividing the number of people that need transported by the capacity of one van:

vans = \( \frac{97}{8} \) = 12\(\frac{1}{8}\)

So, it will take 12 full vans and one partially full van to transport the entire team making a total of 13 vans.

Angles around a line add up to 180°. Angles around a point add up to 360°. When two lines intersect, adjacent angles are supplementary (they add up to 180°) and angles across from either other are vertical (they're equal).

Cylinder number and arrangement depends on the purpose of the engine. Smaller (four and six cylinder) engines in front-wheel drive vehicles often use an inline design which orients cylinders vertically over the crankshaft and aligns them in a row. Other common orientations are a horizontal/opposed design which places cylinders flat facing each other with the crankshaft between them and a V-type design common in six and eight cylinder engines that features one cylinder head per block of cylinders oriented at a 60 to 90 degree angle to each other with the crankshaft at the bottom of the V.

The volume of a cylinder is πr²h:

v = πr²h
v = π(1² x 9)
v = 9π

Convection is the transfer of heat by the circulation or movement of the heated parts of a liquid or gas. Examples of heat transfer by convection include water coming to a boil on a stove, ice melting, and steam from a cup of coffee.
