Question

If the component of a force along x-axis is Fx = 20 kN and along y-axis is Fy = 30 kN,  and if “t” is an axis making an angle of 30o in the counter clockwise direction with respect to x-axis, what would be the components of this force Ft and Fn along the orthogonal axes “t” and “n”, respectively?


 

Select one:
Ft = 2.32 kN and Fn = 35.98 kN
Ft = 15.98 kN and Fn = 32.32 kN
Ft = 35.98 kN and Fn = 2.32 kN
Ft = 32.32 kN and Fn =15.98 kN
