A warehouse worker pushes a crate along the floor, as shown in the figure , by a force of 10.0 N that points downward at an angle of 45.0 degree below the horizontal.

Question

A. Find the horizontal component of the push.

B.Find the vertical component of the push.

Answer 1

Horizontal (x)=Fcos(a)
10N(cos(45))=7.07

Vertical (y)=Fsin (a)
10N(sin(45))=7.07
