Question

Constants Part B 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 select a coordinate system and manipulate the components of the vectors in that coordinate system Find the components of the vector B with length b= 1.00 and angle 20.0 o 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. View Available Hint(s) Hint 1. What is the x component? The x component is still of the same form, that is, Lcos(6) igure 1 of 1 SubmitP Previous Answers Request Answer length= . 8 length = a Incorrect; Try Again; 8 attempts remaining Part C

Explanation / Answer

B)

x-component:

Bx = 1cos(20) = 0.94

y-component:

By = 1sin(20) = 0.34

Ans: B = 0.94, 0.34
