The  force vector that has a magnitude of 12.0 N. and is oriented 60° to the left of the (y) has the followings components:

  • v(x) =6 N
  • v(y) = 10.39 N

To solve this exercise the formulas and procedures we will use are:

  • v(x) = v * cosine (angle)
  • v(y) = v * sine (angle).

Where:

  • v= magnitude of the vector
  • v(x) = component of the vector on the (x) axis
  • v(y) = component of the vector on the (y) axis
  • angle = angle

Information about the problem:

  • angle = 60º
  • v = 12.0 N
  • v(x)= ?
  • v(y)= ?

Applying the formula of the component of the vector in the (x) axis we have:

v(x) = v * cosine (angle).

v(x) = 12.0 N * cosine (60º)

v(x) =6 N

Applying the formula of the component of the vector in the (y) axis we have:

v(y) = v * sine (angle)

v(y) = 12.0 N * sine (60º)

v(y) = 10.39 N

What is a vector?

It can be said to be a straight line described by a point (a) and (b) that has direction and sense.
