The vertical component is B) 7.9 m/s
Explanation:
A vector can be resolved into its horizontal and vertical components. The horizontal and the vertical components form the sides of a right triangle, in which the resultant corresponds to the hypothenuse, so we can use Pythagorean's theorem:
where
R is the resultant vector
Rx is the horizontal component
Ry is the vertical component
In this problem, we have:
R = 12 m/s is the resultant vector
Rx = 9 m/s is the horizontal component
Solving the formula for Ry, we find the vertical component:
