2D Force

Problem 002
Compute the x and y components of each of the four forces shown in Fig. P-002.
 

Problem 001
Problem Determine the x and y components of the forces shown below in Fig P-001.
 

Forces acting at some angle from the the coordinate axes can be resolved into mutually perpendicular forces called components. The component of a force parallel to the x-axis is called the x-component, parallel to y-axis the y-component, and so on.
