Force Components

The force components describe how the force is distrubuted along the x and y axes of a surface.

The x component of the force is the force times the cosine of the angle. The y component of the force is the force times the sine of the angle.

Formula

{QuantityVariable[Subscript["F", "x"], "Force"] == Cos[QuantityVariable["θ", "Angle"]]*QuantityVariable["F", "Force"], QuantityVariable[Subscript["F", "y"], "Force"] == QuantityVariable["F", "Force"]*Sin[QuantityVariable["θ", "Angle"]]}
