Question

Magnitude of velocity vector at 30° with
horizontal is 50 m/s. Find horizontal and
vertical components in m/s​

Answer 1

Answer:

Horizontal component = 50 cos 30°

                                      = 50 × $\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2}$

                                      = 25$\sqrt{3}$ $ms^{-1}$

Vertical component = 50 sin 30°

                                 = 50 × $\frac{1}{2}$

                                 = 25 $ms^{-1}$
