What type of bicycle tire pump nozzle is needed for a Kenda tire?
The type of nozzle you need isn't determined by the tire, but by the tube. And you can put any kind of tube in any tire. You need to look at the tube to determine if it's a Schrader (like on a car), a Presta(narrower) or a Dunlop (unlikely). Schrader-to-Presta adapters are available at pretty much every bike store and only cost a few dollars.

How is it possible to put air inside the tire of a bicycle?
Well, you need a pump, or a compressor with the right type of nozzle for the type of valve you're using. Then, if you have a Presta valve, you need to know how to open it. Once you have that it's no problem inflating a bicycle tire.
What kind of tube does a mountain bike need?
You need one that match your tire size and your type of valve. The tire size is written on the tire sidewall. Doesn't have to be a perfect match in width, but the right diameter is fairly important. If the valve is the same type as on a car tire, then look for a tube with a "Schrader" valve. If it's a narrow thing, it's probably a "presta" valve.

Mechanical advantage of presta valve of bicycle?
Don't think I understand what you're asking about. A Presta valve have two moving parts. They're rarely moved and don't see much load. Mechanical advantage as it's defined just isnt particularly important for a Presta valve. In use there's a small design advantage to Prestas since they are narrower than Schraders. Meaning there's less strength lost to a rim drilled for Presta than for Schrader.
