How do you find the vector components only given the magnitude and angle?

One component = (magnitude) times (cosine of the angle).
Other component = (magnitude) times (sine of the angle).
In order to decide which is which, we have to know the angle with respect to what.

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.
How do you find the y-component of a vector if you are given the magnitude?
The magnitude alone can't tell you anything about its components. You also need to know its direction.
How do you find speed given a vector?
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
In a 2 - dimensional cartesian coordinate system the y-component of a given vector is equal to the vector magnitude multiplied by which trigonometric function with respect to the angle between vector?
I disagree with the last response. It is implied that the angle you are speaking of is the angle between the x-axis and the vector (this conventionally where the angle of a vector is always measured from). The function you are asking about is the sine function. previous answer: This question is incorrect, first of all you have to tell the angle between vector and what other thing is formed?
If you are given the magnitude of a vector but no directionhow can you represent this vector graphically?
You cannot, unless it is a null vector. As a point.

The figure shows two vector B and C along with magnitude and direction . D is given by D =B -C. What is the magnitude of vector of D What angle does vector D make with the +x-axis?
Nothing
How do you find the y-component of a vector if you are given the magnitude?
The magnitude alone can't tell you anything about its components. You also need to know its direction.
When do you get a magnitude of 0 in vector?
The magnitude of a vector is 0 if the magnitude is given to be 0.The magnitude of the resultant of several vectors in n-dimensional space is 0 if and only if the components of the vectors sum to 0 in each of a sewt of n orthogonal directions.
Why is angular displacement a vector quantity?
Angular displacement is a vector quantity because it has both magnitude and direction. The direction of angular displacement is determined by the axis of rotation and follows the right-hand rule, while the magnitude is given by the angle of rotation. As a vector, angular displacement can be added, subtracted, and resolved into components, making it useful in calculations that involve rotational motion.
The angle between two vector force of magnitude?
using the "dot product" formula, you can find the angle. where |a| denotes the length (magnitude) of a. More generally, if b is another vector : where |a| and |b| denote the length of a and b and θis the angle between them. Thus, given two vectors, the angle between them can be found by rearranging the above formula: : :
Magnitude direction point of application and line of action are the four components of force.?
The four components of force are the scalar/real component, fr and three vector components,Fv= Ifx + Jfy + Kfz. The force is F = fr + Ifx + jfy + Kfz.= fr + Fv. The line of action of the force is the vector Ifx + Jfy +kfz. The rotation angle around the vector axis is given by the arctangent Fv/fr.
