1. The horizontal component of the velocity is 14.74 m/s

2. The vertical component of the velocity is 10.32 m/s

Data obtained from the question

The following data were obtained from the question:

  • Initial velocity (u) = 18 m/s
  • Angle of projection (θ) = 35 °
  • Horizontal component of velocity =?
  • Vertical component of velocity =?

1. How to determine the horizontal component of velocity

  • Initial velocity (u) = 18 m/s
  • Angle of projection (θ) = 35 °
  • Horizontal component of velocity =?

Horizontal component of velocity = u × Cosθ

Horizontal component of velocity = 18 × Cos35

Horizontal component of velocity = 14.74 m/s

2. How to determine the vertical component of velocity

  • Initial velocity (u) = 18 m/s
  • Angle of projection (θ) = 35 °
  • Vertical component of velocity =?

Vertical component of velocity = u × Sineθ

Vertical component of velocity = 18 × Sine35

Vertical component of velocity = 10.32 m/s
