A component force is a single force in a system that acts in a specific direction, often representing a part of a larger force that is broken down into its horizontal and vertical components. These component forces are calculated to analyze forces in a system in a simplified manner.

Can you increase the horizontal component of the force that you exert on the mower without increasing the magnitude of the force?

No, the horizontal component of a force is directly related to the magnitude of the force. Increasing the horizontal component of the force would require increasing the magnitude of the force itself.


What force or component of a force acts as the centripetal force when a curved road is banked?

The horizontal component of the normal force acts as the centripetal force when a curved road is banked.


Can a force at any angle perform work?

certainly. The force vector can be resolved into one component parallel to the motion of the object under force and another component perpendicular to the motion. The parallel component does the work; the perpendicular component does no work


Joint force air component commander and joint force land component commander are examples of what?

Combatant command


What is the x-component of the force exerted on the particle by the magnetic field?

The x-component of the force exerted on the particle by the magnetic field is the force acting in the horizontal direction.


Which force opposes gravity?

Any force with an upward vertical component does.


A force of 10N is acting along y-axis Its component along x-axis is?

0 N, since there is no x component of the force.


How are the imput and output forces of the parts of a compound machine related?

In a compound machine, the input force is applied to the first component, which then transmits this force to the subsequent components. Each component may amplify or redirect the force before passing it on to the next component. The output force of the compound machine is the final force generated by all the components working together.


Does the direction of the force change in an incline plane?

Yes, in an inclined plane, the force has both a component parallel to the incline (the gravitational force) and a component perpendicular to the incline (the normal force). The normal force always acts perpendicular to the surface, while the gravitational force acts parallel to the incline.


Why does pressure force acts perpendicular to the body?

If that force is not perpendicular to the surface, then there is a component of the force that's parallel to the surface. That component would move fluid around, until there were no longer any force parallel to the surface ... and the whole force would again be perpendicular to the surface.


A 25N force acts along the X-axis. Find its Y-Component is?

Force is only acting on x axis so y component is actually 0


Which force is responsible for holding a car in a frictionless banked curve?

The Horizontal Component of the normal force.
