Answerx-component = 35.0 Ny-component = 60.62 NExplanationThe x-component (Fx) of 70.0 N can be found using the trigonometric ratio sine.sin = opposite/hypotenusesin30 = [tex]\frac{Fx}{70}[/tex]Fx = 70 × sin30 = 35 NThe y-component (Fy) of 70.0 N can be found using the trigonometric ratio cosine.cos30 = [tex]\frac{Fy}{70}[/tex]Fy = 70 × cos30 = 60.62 N
Suggested Answer
for the horizontal (x) component: use Fx=F(cosФ)Fx= 70N (cos 30°) = 60.6 Nfor the vertical (y) component: use Fy=F(sinФ)Fx= 70N (sin 30°) = 35.5 N
