Calculate vector magnitude and direction with this easy-to-use tool
A vector is a mathematical construct that has both magnitude and direction. Vectors are used to represent quantities such as force, velocity, and acceleration in physics and engineering. The magnitude of a vector is its length, while its direction is the direction in which it points.
This calculator allows you to compute the magnitude and direction of a vector given its components. It supports both 2D and 3D vectors, making it a versatile tool for various applications.
To use the calculator, simply input the components of your vector, select the dimension (2D or 3D), and click 'Calculate'. The calculator will then display the magnitude and direction of your vector.
| Vector Components | Magnitude | Direction |
|---|---|---|
| (3, 4) | 5 | 53.13° |
| (1, 2, 3) | 3.74 | (63.43°, 56.31°, 36.7°) |
