The Horizontal component is 554.889N and the vertical component is

9.8235 Newton

Resolution of Forces

Given Data

  • Force = 555 Newton
  • Angle of Applied force = 44°
  • Fx = Horizontal component of the applied force
  • Fy = the vertical component of the applied force

Resolving the vertical force

Fy = 555 sin44°

Fy = 555 *0.01770

Fy = 9.8235 Newton

Resolving the horizontal force

Fx = 555 cos 44°

Fx = 555 *0.9998

Fx = 554.889 Newton
