A woman is trying to train her fox terrier to properly walk on a leash. However, her dog is continuously pulling with a force of 70 N at an angle of 30 degrees. Find the x and y components of the applied force.
Fx = 30 N
Fy = 61 N
Fx = 50 N
Fy = 40 N
Fx = 70 N
Fy = 82 N
Fx = 61 N
Fy = 35 N
George is parasailing. He sits in a seat harness attached to a speedboat by a tow rope. The rope has a tension force of 331 N, and the rope is at an angle of 61.7 degrees above horizontal. Find the x and y components of the applied force.
Fx = 180 N
Fy = 290 N
Fx = 150 N
Fy = 254 N
Fx = 211 N
Fy = 380 N
Fx = 157 N
Fy = 291 N

Determine the components of the following vectors.
Cx = 10.4 m
Cy = 6 m
Cx = 6 m
Cy = 10.4 m
Cx = 6.2 m
Cy = 29.3 m
Cx = 29.3 m
Cy = 29.3 m
Determine the components of the following vectors.
Cx = 10.9 m
Cy = 43.7 m
Cx = 43.7 m
Cy = 10.9 m
Cx = 9.9 m
Cy = 9.9 m
Cx = 29.3 m
Cy = 29.3 m
