Sketch a vector representing a 10 Newton force which acts vertically downward.
• Position an x-y coordinate plane so that the initial point of your vector is at the origin, and the angle of the vector as measured counterclockwise from the positive x axis is 250 degrees. This will require that you 'rotate' the x-y coordinate plane from its traditional horizontal-vertical orientation.
answer/question/discussion:
The x and y axes are tilted so that the 10N force is pointed straight down from the origin at 250 degrees. The equilibrant of the force is 10N at 70 degrees.
• What are the x and y components of the equilibrant of the force?
answer/question/discussion:
x component=10N*cos(70)=3.42
y component=10N*sin(70)=9.40
