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!

Answer:

A jar of mixed nuts is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A heterogeneous mixture is a type of mixture that is not uniform in the appearance and composition varies throughout.

The heterogeneous mixture consists of multiple phases.

A jar of mixed nuts is an example of the heterogeneous mixture because they do not have a uniform composition component differ in proportion and they do not mix, instead, they form two different layers and they can be easily separated.

A 6 kg box with initial speed 5 m/s slides across the floor and comes to a stop after 1.9 s. What is the coefficient of kinetic
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

\mu_k=0.27

Explanation:

According to the free body diagram, in this case, we have:

\sum F_x:-F_k=ma\\\sum F_y:N=mg

Recall that the force of friction is given by:

F_k=\mu_k N

Replacing and solving for the coefficient of kinetic friction:

-\mu_kN=ma\\-\mu_k(mg)=ma\\\mu_k=-\frac{a}{g}

We have an uniformly accelerated motion. Thus, the acceleration is defined as:

a=\frac{v_f-v_0}{t}\\a=\frac{0-5\frac{m}{s}}{1.9s}\\a=-2.63\frac{m}{s^2}

Finally, we calculate \mu_k:

\mu_k=-\frac{-2.63\frac{m}{s^2}}{9.8\frac{m}{s^2}}\\\mu_k=0.27
