a boy shot a slingshot at a 30 degree angle from the horizontal at a speed of 10 m/s. what is the horizontal component of this vector?

OpenStudy (ask_if_im_a_ghost):

The horizontal component is the velocity times the cosine of the angle In this case \[v_{x} = 10*\cos (30)\]

OpenStudy (shamim):

x=horizontal component of R

OpenStudy (shamim):

y=vertical component of R

OpenStudy (shamim):

u know \[x=Rcos \theta\]

OpenStudy (shamim):

\[y=Rsin \theta\]

OpenStudy (shamim):

u hv \[R=10 m/s\]

OpenStudy (shamim):

\[\theta=30\]

OpenStudy (shamim):

u hv to find out horizontal component=x=?
