Question

The magnitude of the force F is 650 lb. Express F as a vector in terms of the unit vectors i and j. Identify both the scalar and vector components of F.

Answer 1

Answer: Vector components of F are

Fx= -372.85i

Fy= 532.45j

The scalar components are

Fx= -372.85Lb

Fy= 532.45Lb

Step-by-step explanation:

F = (Fcos125°)I + (Fsin125)j

F=650cos125)i + (650sin125)

F= (-372.85i + 532.45j)Lb
