Belkis is pulling a toy by exerting a force of 1.5 newtons on a string attached to the toy. The string makes an angle of 52 degrees with the floor. What could be the vertical and horizontal components of the force? a. ≈ 1.18N; ≈ 0.92 E
b. ≈ 1.07N; ≈ 0.09 E
c. ≈ 1.18N; ≈ 0.09 E
d. ≈ 1.07N; ≈ 0.92 E

Respuesta :

Answer: (A) 1.18 North, 0.92 East

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertical component is sin 52° times the Force of 1.5 newtons

⇒ 1.5 sin 52° = 1.18

The horizontal component is cos 52° times the Force of 1.5 newtons

⇒ 1.5 cos 52° = 0.92

Answer:

a. ≈ 1.18N; ≈ 0.92 E
