The components are Nx= Ncosθ and Ny= -Nsinθ
<h3>What is a Vector?</h3>We know that the vector quantities are those quantities that have magnitude as well as direction.
Each vector quantity can be divided into two parts a horizontal and vertical component, the vertical component is known as the sine component while the horizontal component is known as the cosine component.
A vector component is the product of its length and the component angle.
Generally, F sinθ is the vertical component and F cosθ is the horizontal component,
Now, from the diagram the horizontal component of vector 'r' is
Nx= Ncosθ
and, the vertical component will be
Ny= -Nsinθ
this is in the opposite direction
