The x component formula, Δx =|Δr|•cos(Θ), /attachments/d010adf8-e6d1-11e5-9770-bc764e2038f2/V2 - r.png Vector r componentscomputes the x component of the vector r .

INSTRUCTIONS: Enter the following:

  • (Θ)  The angle between the x axis and the vector r.
  • (|Δr|) The magnitude of vector r

The calculator returns the x component (Δx) in kilometers.  However, this can be automatically converted to other length units via the pull-down menu.
