A cannon fires a cannon ball with a force of 120N at 20° compared to the ground. How much of the force is in the x-direction and how much of the force is in the y-direction?

The x-component of the force is Fₓ = 112.76 N

The y-component of the force is Fᵧ = 41.04 N

Explanation:

A cannon fires a cannon ball with a force of 120N at 20° to the ground

A diagram depicting the force and its direction is attached to this solution.

As evident in the attached image, the force is given in the x and y components as

Fₓ = 120 cos 20° = 112.76 N

Fᵧ = 120 sin 20° = 41.04 N

Hope this Helps!!!

i believe it is conserved or stays the same.

Explanation: energy cant be destroyed no matter what and no energy is being created

I hope this helps a thank and a brainlist would be greatly appreciated
