Two Dimensional Vector Magnitude Calculation
Calculate magnitude of 2D vectors (Two Dimensional Vector) for given values:
The magnitude of vector is described as the length of physical quantities which have both magnitude and direction. The magnitude or length of any two dimensional vector is denoted by |A|.
The line length shows the magnitude of the vector and arrowhead points towards direction.
The vector can be numerically represented in the Cartesian co-ordinate system as A = (Ax , Ay).
suppose Ax = 5 and Ay = 6
Hence A = (5, 6).
Let’s find the magnitude of vector A
The formula for the magnitude of vector A is |A| = sqrt(x^2 + y^2)
Therefore: |A| = sqrt[5^2 + 6^2]
= sqrt (25 + 36)
= sqrt(61)
= 7.81
