A superhero flies 285 m from the top of a tall building at an angle of 20 ◦ below the horizontal. What is the horizontal component of the superhero’s displacement?

Respuesta :

Answer:

267.81 m

Explanation:

The horizontal component of a vector can be found by multiplying the vector with cosine of the angle with the horizontal.

[tex]x = r\cos(\theta)[/tex]

In this case,

[tex]x = 285\cos(20) = 267.81~m[/tex]
