To find the components of a vector lying in the x-y plane with a given magnitude and angle, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the problem We have a vector \( \vec{A} \) with a magnitude of 3 that makes an angle of \( 30^\circ \) with the x-axis. We need to find its components along the x-axis and y-axis. ### Step 2: Identify the components The components of the vector can be found using trigonometric functions: - The x-component (\( A_x \)) can be calculated using the cosine of the angle. ...
