Question

I need to practice a little bit more. thank you.

Answer 1

In order to calculate the x-component of this vector, we can use the formula below:

$V_x=V\cdot\cos\theta$

Using V = 0.888 and theta = 205°, we have:

$\begin{gathered} V_x=0.888\cdot\cos205°\\ \\ V_x=0.888\cdot(-0.9063)\\ \\ V_x=-0.805\text{ m} \end{gathered}$

Therefore the x-component is equal to -0.805 m.
