Answer:
Magnitude of Vector = 79.3
Explanation:
When a vector is resolved into its rectangular components, it forms two vector components. These components are named as x-component and y-component, they are calculated by the following formulae:
x-component of vector = (Magnitude of Vector)(Cos θ)
y-component of vector = (Magnitude of Vector)(Sin θ)
where,
θ = angle of the vector with x-axis = 27°
Therefore, using the values in the equation of y-component, we get:
36 = (Magnitude of Vector)(Sin 27°)
Magnitude of Vector = 36/Sin 27°
Magnitude of Vector = 79.3
