Answer to Question #241383 in Physics for paul warren ilagan

Question

1. What are the vector components of the following: Round off your answer to two decimal numbers.

a. G = 10m, 1500°

b. L = 10m, 900°

c. A = 10m, 3600°

d. D = 10m, 360° N of W

Answer 1

(a)

$$G_x=10\cos1500^{\circ}=5.00\:\rm m$$

$$G_y=10\sin1500^{\circ}=8.66\:\rm m$$

(b)

$$L_x=10\cos900^{\circ}=-10.00\:\rm m$$

$$L_y=10\sin900^{\circ}=0.00\:\rm m$$

(c)

$$A_x=10\cos3600^{\circ}=10.00\:\rm m$$

$$A_y=10\sin3600^{\circ}=0.00\:\rm m$$

(d)

$$D_x=10\cos180^{\circ}=-10.00\:\rm m$$

$$D_y=10\sin180^{\circ}=0.00\:\rm m$$
