Resolve a force F = 10N along x and y-ax...

Resolve a force F = 10N along x and y-axes. Where this force vector in making an angle of `60^@` from negative x-axis towards nagetive y-axis?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

`F_x = 10 cos 60^@ = 5 N` (along negative x-direction)
`F_y = 10 sin 60^@` = 5sqrt3N` (along negative y-direction)
