Here, you need to use your "Protractor" as it is given in the question, but we can calculate the value with the help of our mathematical calculation too:
[ Protractor can be use only in real life, not here ]

Draw an imaginary line from initial position to final position.
Now, In that triangle, tan x = P/B
tan x = 1.4 / 2
tan x = 0.70
x = tan⁻¹ (0.70)
x = 35  [ tan 35 = 0.70 ]

In short, Your Answer would be 35 degrees

Hope this helps!

Which form of the law of conservation of energy describes the motion of the block when it slides from the top of the table to th
Mnenie [13.5K]

By definition we have that the energy at the top of the ramp is equal to the energy at the bottom of the ramp. This is due to the principle of energy conservation.

We have then:

E1 = E2

The energy at the top is only potential energy:

E1 = mgh

Where,

  • <em>m: mass </em>
  • <em>g: acceleration of gravity </em>
  • <em>h: vertical height of the ramp </em>

The energy when it falls is transformed into kinetic energy and therefore:

E2 = \frac {1} {2} mv ^ 2

Where,

  • <em>v: object speed. </em>

Therefore we have:

mgh = \frac {1} {2} mv ^ 2

Answer:

The potential energy is transformed into kinetic energy.

mgh = \frac {1} {2} mv ^ 2

A thug pushes some 100 kg punk with 300 N of force. How much is the punk accelerated?
astra-53 [7]

Answer:

Acceleration generate by punk = 3 m/s²

Explanation:

Given:

Weight of punk = 100 Kg

Force applied on punk = 300 N

Find:

Acceleration generate by punk = ?

Computation:

Acceleration = Force / Mass

Acceleration generate by punk = Force applied on punk / Weight of punk

Acceleration generate by punk = 300 N / 100 Kg

Acceleration generate by punk = 3 m/s²
