A force is inclined at 60 to the horizontal


Asked by admin @ in Physics viewed by 279 People


A force is inclined at 60 degree to the horizontal if its rectangular component in the horizontal direction is 50 and then magnitude of the vertical component of force is approximately

Answered by admin @



The force is inclined at 60° from the horizontal....
The horizontal component is 50.....

Let the force be f
Therefore the force is given by.....
f x cos 60° = 50
f = 50 x 2
f = 100 units

The vertical component of the force is given by.....
f x sin 60° =  vertical component
vertical component = 100 x √3/2
                               = 173.2/2
                               = 86.6 units
Let me know if i am wrong....
