The horizontal and the vertical components of the vector are -8.86 and -1.566 respectively.
What is a vector?
A vector is a quantity that has both magnitude and direction.
To calculate the horizontal components of the vector, we use the formula below.
Formula:
- Vx = Vcos∅............ Equation 1
Given:
Substitute into equation 1
- Vx = 9cos190°
- Vx = 9×(-0.9848)
- Vx = -8.86
Also, to find the vertical component of the vector, we use the formula below
- Vy = Vsin∅............. Equation 2
Also, substitute these values above into equation 2
- Vy = 9sin190°
- Vy = 9×(-0.174)
- Vy = -1.566
Hence, the horizontal and the vertical components of the vector are -8.86 and -1.566 respectively.
