Problem a) The vector shown below has a magnitude of 200 N and is acting 15° from the vertical axis. Determine the magnitude of the x and y components of vector P. (hint: treat P, x, and y as a right triangle and find the lengths of x and y). P=200N 15% b) When broken down into x and y components, the vector shown below has a magnitude of 12 lb in the horizontal direction and a magnitude of 5 lb in the vertical direction. Determine the magnitude of the vector and the angle (6) that it acts from the horizontal axis. magnitude 1216 5 b
