A vector of magnitude `10 N` acting in X-Y-plane has componets `8 N` and `6 N` along positive X-axis and positive Y-axis, repectively.The coordinate system is rotated about Z-axis through angle `90^(@)` in anti-clockwise direction. Find x-components and y-component in new coordinate system.

A

`F_(x)= 8 N, F_(y)= 6N`

B

`F_(x) = 6 N, F_(y)= 8N`

C

`F_(x)= 6N, F_(y)= -8 N`

D

`F_(x)= 0N, F_(y)= 10N`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

In new coordinates system,

`F sin 37^(@)= 6N`
`F cos 37^(@)= 8N`
x-component `F_(x)= F sin 37^(@)= 10xx3/5= 6N`

y-component `F_(y)= -F cos 37^(@)`
`= -10xx4/5= -8N`
