The diagram below shows a force of 5N acting on an object P at an angle of 30° to the horizontal. By drawing appropriate lines on the diagram using a ruler to determine:
a.)The horizontal component of the 5N force.
b.)The vertical component of the 5N force .

The astronauts on the space shuttle flights experienced an acceleration of 29 m/s2 (about 3 "g's") during lift-off. what upward force must the astronaut's seat apply to the astronaut in order to cause this acceleration? assume the astronaut's mass is 70 kg, and compute this force when the acceleration is near the earth's surface so their weight equals latex: mg m g .
