Question

If the horizontal and vertical components of a force are negative, then that force is acting in between

पर्याय

• North and East

• North and West

• South and West

• South and East

Answer 1

South and West

Explanation:

Angle = `pi + theta`

Horizontal component = `|vecF| cos (pi + theta)`

= `- |vecF| cos theta` (Negative)

Vertical component = `|vecF| sin (pi + theta)`

= `- |vecF| cos theta` (Negative)

Hence, force is acting in between south and west.
