A force of 15 N makes an angle of 60° with horizontal. Its vertical component will be ____?

15 N

10 N

13 N

7 N

The vertical component of the force is:

Vertical component = Force × sin(angle)

= 15 N × sin(60°)

= 15 N × 0.866

= 13 N

So, the vertical component of the 15 N force at an angle of 60° is approximately 13 N.
