If a force is 100 N and is pointing 37 degrees north of east. (a) Draw a diagram of this force. (b) Draw the force's x and y components. (c) Find the force's x and y components quantitatively.

Respuesta :

Answer

given,

force = 100 N

Point 37 degrees north of east

a) and b) part is shown in the diagram attached below.

c) to find the x and y component of the force

x- component of the force

[tex]F_x = F cos \theta[/tex]

[tex]F_x = 100\times cos 37^0[/tex]

[tex]F_x = 79.86 N [/tex]

y- component of the force

[tex]F_y = F sin \theta[/tex]

[tex]F_y = 100\times sin 37^0[/tex]

[tex]F_y = 60.18 N [/tex]
