a vector veca with a magnitude of 17.0 ...

a vector `veca ` with a magnitude of `17.0` m is directed at angle `theta=56.0^(@)` countercloskwise from the +x axis. What are the components (a) `a _(x) and (b) a _(y)` of the vector ? A second coordinate system is inclined by angle `theta'=18.0^(@)` with respect to the first. What are the components (c ) a and (d) `a _(y)`in this primed coordinate system ?

To solve the problem step by step, we will break down the vector into its components and then transform it into the new coordinate system. ### Step 1: Find the components of vector `vecA` in the original coordinate system. Given: - Magnitude of vector `vecA` = 17.0 m - Angle `theta` = 56.0° (counterclockwise from the +x axis) ...
