Avector is 0.888 m long and points in a 205 degree direction.
find the x-component of the vector.

-0.805 m

Explanation:

The x-component of a vector is given by:

where

v is the magnitude of the vector

is the angle of the vector with respect to the positive x-direction

In this problem we have

v = 0.888 m

so we have

answer; equivalent to a one(1) horsepower motor;
