If the escalator pulls you up a slope of 30.0o​ ​ and moves with a velocity of 3.10m/s. What is the vertical component of your velocity? What is the horizontal component of your velocity?

Answer:

[tex]1.55\ \text{m/s}[/tex]

[tex]2.68\ \text{m/s}[/tex]

Explanation:

v = Velocity of the elevator = 3.1 m/s

[tex]\theta[/tex] = Angle of the slope = [tex]30^{\circ}[/tex]

Vertical component is given by

[tex]v_y=v\sin\theta\\\Rightarrow v_y=3.1\sin30^{\circ}\\\Rightarrow v_y=1.55\ \text{m/s}[/tex]

The vertical component of the velocity is [tex]1.55\ \text{m/s}[/tex].

Horizontal component is given by

[tex]v_x=v\cos\theta\\\Rightarrow v_x=3.1\times \cos30^{\circ}\\\Rightarrow v_x=2.68\ \text{m/s}[/tex]

The horizontal component of the velocity is [tex]2.68\ \text{m/s}[/tex].
