What isthe corresponding valuo of 7? 2.6, Rectangular Components of a Fore, Unit Vectors. In many problems it will be found desirable to resolve a force {nto two components which are perpendicular to each other. In Fig. 2.18, the force F has been resolved into a component AF, along the x axis and a component F, along the y axis, The parallelogram drawn to obtain the two components is a ree- tangle, and ¥,, and F, are called rectangular components, ‘The x and y axes ave usually chosen horizontal and vesticel, respectively, as in Fig. 2.18; thoy may, however, be chosen in any two perpendicular directions, as shown in Fig. 2.19. In determining the rectangular components of a force, the stu. dent should think of the construction lines shown in Figs, 2.18 and 2.19 as being parallel to the x and y axes, rather than per- the properties established in Ses. 2. and 27 may be realy extendeto the ‘cetangular components of any vector quantity.B a “ Rigid Bodies.
