Question
when resolving gravity into components
Fg (x component) = Fg sin theta
when you get the units you get
Newton times a degree
how come we just ignore the degree
for example if it was 9 N you wouldnt say 9 N (degrees) why not? How do the degrees just magically dissapear not to mention you could use radians and such instead

theta has units of degrees. sin(theta) does not.
