The horizontal component of the train's speed is 5.54 m/s and the vertical component's of the train's speed is  6.85 m/s.

Horizontal component of the train's speed

The horizontal component of the train's speed is calculated as follows;

Vx = V cosθ

where;

  • V is the speed of the train
  • θ is the direction of the train.

Vx = 8.81 m/s x cos(51)

Vx = 5.54 m/s

Vertical component's of the train's speed

Vy = 8.81 m/s x sin(51)

Vy = 6.85 m/s

Thus, the horizontal component of the train's speed is 5.54 m/s and the vertical component's of the train's speed is  6.85 m/s.

The complete question is below:

a train travels 8.81 m/s in a -51.0 direction. the train accelerates 2.23 m/s². Find the horizontal and vertical component of the train's speed.
