Question

A luggage wagon is being pulled with vector force v​, which has a magnitude of 700 pounds at an angle of elevation of 65 degrees. resolve the vector v into components.

Answer 1

The vector written in its components, by definition, is given by:
 $v = lvl (cos ( \alpha ) i + sin ( \alpha ) j)$
 Where,
 lvl: is the magnitude of the vector
 $\alpha$: is the elevation angle
 Substituting values we have:
 $v = 700 (cos (65) i + sine (65) j)$
 Rewriting we have:
 $v = 700cos (65) i + 700sine(65) j v = 295.8i + 634.4j$
 Answer:
 the vector v into components is:
 $v = 295.8i + 634.4j$
