Question

A force of 10N is along z-axis,its component along x-axis and y-axis is

Answer 1

Answer:

For any angle θ of a vector quantity (A) considered from the x-axis, the components along the axes will be;

x axis = Acosθ

y axis = Asinθ

In the given case,

A = 10 N

θ = 90°

So the component along x axis = Acos(90°) = 0.

Ans. Zero.
