An object travels with velocity v = 4.0 meters/second and it makes an angle of 60.0° with the positive direction of the y-axis. Calculate the possible values of vx.
vx=cos60(4) x-component of velocity If you think about it, it makes a right triangle when you combine all the different types of forces together such as v, vx and vy. Then, you can use trigonometry and soh cah toa in order to figure out vx.
