The magnitude of a vector can be found by taking the square root of the sum of the squares of the vector's components. For a vector in n-dimensional space, use the formula: ||v|| = √(v1^2 + v2^2 + ... + vn^2).
What is the magnitude of vector?
The magnitude of a vector is the length of the vector, representing the distance from the origin to the endpoint of the vector.
How do you find the resultant magnitude of two vectors?
The magnitude of the resultant vector can be found by using the law of cosines. The formula is: r = √(A^2 + B^2 - 2ABcosθ), where A and B are the magnitudes of the original vectors,and θ is the angle between the vectors.
Is the magnitude of a vector a scalar?
The magnitude of a vector is a scalar quantity, which means it is a single value without a direction.
