Given a vector, speed is the magnitude of the velocity vector, |v|.

Consider vector V= IVx + JVy + KVz the magnitude is

|V| = ( Vx2 + Vy2 + Vz2)1/2

How do you find vector components when given the vectors are parallel and the magnitude of each vector is equal to 1?

If they are parallel, you can add them algebraically to get a resultant vector. Then you can resolve the resultant vector to obtain the vector components.


Which is vector speed or velocity?

"Speed" is a scalar; "velocity" is a vector.


Is Speed is a vector quantitys?

Speed is not a vector quantity, because it has no direction. When you combine speed with a direction, then you have a vector, called "velocity".
