Find the x-components of this vector: 15.3m, 65 degrees. Angles are measured from the +x axis.

I'm having some difficulty seeing the diagram clearly.but the question says there's a net inward force on the object.so we know right away,  from newton's 2nd law of motion, thatthat baby is accelerating.  it doesn't even matter which way thenet force is pointing.  if there's any net force, then either theobject's speed or else its direction must be changing.

The net force would equal 13 newtons , forward. the mass will accelerate. balanced forces: when forces are in balance, acceleration is zero. velocity is constant and there is no net or unbalanced force.hope this : )
