View written solutionFree
Correct answer: B
-
Let the vector have magnitude and make an angle of with the -axis.
-
Since the angle is given with the -axis: and
-
Given: So,
-
Use :
-
Now find the -component:
-
Hence, the magnitude of the -component is:
-
Checking options:
- A:
- B: ✅
- C:
- D:
Therefore, the correct option is B.
