Given:
v = 12.2 m
Angle = 245 degrees
Let's find the y-component of the vector.
Let's first sketch a free body diagram representing the vector.
We have:
To find the y-component of the vector, apply the formula:
[tex]d_y=dcos\theta[/tex]
Where:
θ = 25 degrees
d = -12.2 m
Thus, we have:
[tex]\begin{gathered} d_y=-12.2cos25 \\ \\ d_y=-11.1\text{ m} \end{gathered}[/tex]
Therefore, the y-component of the vector is -11.1 m.
