The Magnitude of 2 dimensional Velocity Vector calculator computes the speed of an object as a scalar value given the velocity components in the X and Y directions:

INSTRUCTIONS: Choose units and enter the following:

  • (vx) - x component of the velocity vector in the Cartesian coordinate system's x-direction
  • `(vy) - y component of the velocity vector in the Cartesian coordinate system's y-direction

2D Vector Magnitude(|v|): The magnitude is returned in meters per second.  However this can be automatically converted to compatible units via the pull-down menu.
