Question

Item 8 8 of 16 > Often a vector is specified by a magnitude and a direction; for example, a rope with tension T exerts a force of magnitude T-20N in a direction 35 north of east. This is a good way to think of vectors however, to calculate results with vectors, it is best to Part A Find the components of the vector A with length a = 1.00 and angle = 15.0-with respect to the x axis as shown in (Figure 1). Enter numerically, separated by a comma, the x component followed by the y component. Figure 1 of 1 View Available Hint(s) Submit lengthbB

Explanation / Answer

x component of A = |A|* cos (angle)

= 1.00*cos 15.0

= 0.966

y component of A = |A|* sin (angle)

= 1.00*sin 15.0

= 0.259

Answer: 0.966 , 0.259
