Course Home Chapter 3 HW Item 7 7 of 20 Part A Learning Goal: To introduce you to vectors and the use of sine and cosine for a triangle when resolving components The figure shows the standard way of measuring the angle. The angle is measured to the vector from the x axis, and counterclockwise is positive Express F, and Fy in terms of the length of the vector F and the angle 8, with the components separated by a comma. Vectors are an important part of the language of science, mathematics, and engineering. They are used to discuss multivariable calculus, electrical circuits with oscllating currents, stress and strain in structures and materials and flows of atmospheres and fluids, and they have many other applications. Resolving a vector into components is a precursor to computing things with or F, B, Figure 1 of 1 Submit Part B Complete previous part(s) Part C Complete previous part(s) Part D Complete previous part(s) Part E Complete previous part(s) Provide Feedback Next > leExplanation / Answer
The x component of vector F is
Fx = F cos theta
the y component of vector F is
Fy = F sin theta
Fx, Fy = F cos theta, F sin theta
