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!

A horizontal wire is hung from the ceiling of a room by two massless strings. The wire has a length of 0.11 m and a mass of 0.01
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

Explanation:

The magnetic force acting horizontally will deflect the wire by angle φ from the vertical

Let T be the tension

T cosφ = mg

Tsinφ = Magnetic force

Tsinφ = BiL  , where B is magnetic field , i is current and L is length of wire

Dividing

Tanφ = BiL / mg

= .055 x 29 x .11 / .010 x 9.8

= 1.79

φ = 61° .

Tension T = mg / cosφ

= .01 x 9.8 / cos61

= .2 N .
