A force of 20 N acts at 30^circ to the x-axis. Its x- and y-components are:

  1. Fx = 17.3 N, Fy = 10 N
  2. Fx = 8.66 N, Fy = 5 N
  3. Fx = 20 N, Fy = 20 N
  4. Fx = 10 N, Fy = 17.3 N
Answer

A) Fx = 17.3 N, Fy = 10 N

Fx = Fcostheta, Fy = Fsintheta: Fx = 17.3 N, Fy = 10 N. SLO P-11-B-01 · Understanding
