You can't derive the direction only from the magnitude. A vector with the same magnitude can have different directions. You need some additional information to make conclusions about the direction.

That's it! You know everything there is to know about it. It's not as if you have to wander through a crowd of vectors and find one that matches the description. "Find the vector" means figure out its magnitude and direction. If the problem already gave you the magnitude and direction, then it's unlikely that it's asking you to 'find' that same vector.
The magnitude alone can't tell you anything about its components. You also need to know its direction.
Use trigonometry.
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
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.
