Problem

A particle is subjected to two displacements. The first displacement has magnitude 10 m10\,\text{m} at 60∘60^{\circ} above the positive x-axis. The second displacement is 5 ı^−12 ȷ^ m5\,\hat\imath - 12\,\hat\jmath\,\text{m}. What is the y-component of the resultant displacement? (a) 8.7 m8.7\,\text{m} (b) −3.3 m-3.3\,\text{m} (c) −12 m-12\,\text{m} (d) −7.0 m-7.0\,\text{m}
