Question

A force of 5 N acts on a particle along a direction making an angle 60 degree with vertical. Its vertical component be

Answer 1

Answer:2.5 N

Explanation:

The side with which the angle is made is always taken as in the cosine function. The vertical component is the cosine one here.

So , 5 cos 60° = 5× 1/2 = 2.5

Answer 2

Given :

As the Force 5N acts on a particle along a direction making an angle of 60 degree with vertical.

The vertical component of force would be :

Product of Force and Cos θ

⇒F COSθ

⇒5xCOS60°

⇒5x1/2

⇒2.5N
