A rope is attached to a block. The rope pulls on the block with a force of 240 N, at an angle of 40 degrees to the horizontal (this force is equal to the tension in the rope). What is the x-component of the force on the block due to the rope?

X Component is 183.85N

Explanation:

The x component of the force on the block due to the rope;

X = F cos @ where if is the force, @ is the angle mad with the block.

X = F cos @

X = 240 cos 40

Cos 40= 0.7660, so

X = 240 × 0.7660

X component= 183.85N// rounded to two decimal places.

answer: the direction of the wind is expressed as the direction from which the wind is blowing. for example, easterly winds blow from east to west, while westerly winds blow from west to east.

explanation:

from

explanation:

wind is defined by the direction it blows from.   for example, a wind blowing from north to south is called a northerly wind.
