Solution

The process of splitting a vector into its components is called resolution of the vector. The components, when added vectorially, will yield the same vector. Generally, we resolve a vector into three components viz.

component along the x-axiscalled x-component

component along the y-axis called y-component

component along the z-axis called z-component
