Drawing a shows a displacement vector (450.0 m along the y axis). In this x, y coordinate system the scalar components are Ax 0 m and Ay 450.0 m. Suppose that the coordinate system is rotated counterclockwise by 35.0, but the magnitude (450.0 m) and direction of vector remain unchanged, as in drawing b. What are the scalar components, Ax and Ay, of the vector in the rotated x, y coordinate system

x ’= 368.61 m,  y ’= 258.11 m

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must find the projections of the point on the new vectors of the rotated system  θ = 35º

            x’= R cos 35

            y’= R sin 35

The modulus vector can be found using the Pythagorean theorem

            R² = x² + y²

            R = 450 m

we calculate

            x ’= 450 cos 35

            x ’= 368.61 m

            y ’= 450 sin 35

            y ’= 258.11 m
