  1. A 100 kg shot-putter pushes forward and upward on a 4 kg shot with a force of 1000 N. This force acts at an angle of 60° above horizontal.

  1. How much of this 1000 N force acts in the upward direction?
  1. How much of this 1000N force acts in a horizontal direction?

  1. What is the resultant force?

Solutions

Expert Solution

This question is solved by using the concept called resolution of vectors. Since force is a vector , it can easily be resolved into its components and this is done to calculate the force in upward and horizontal direction.

Including the force of gravity, that is , weight of the shot, resultant force on the shot in calculated.
