Question

If you throw a ball at 35° and 10.0 m per s, what is the horizontal component of velocity?
8.2 m per s
10 m per s
0.0 m per s
5.7 m per s
I pick A.

Answer 1

Horizontal component will have magnitude \[\10*cos 35^\circ\approx 8.2\text{m/s}\]so you picked well :-)

Answer 2

But you didn't pick nearly so well when you chose to post this in the chemistry forum!

Answer 3

Yeah haha, I instantly realized that's why I closed it :) @whpalmer4 thank you so much though!
