Guys how do i convert velocity of target from pci coordinates to numbers I'm on the verge of making a missile?
Edit:🤦???... i had no idea this was called the magnitude or length of a vector, and also had no idea what a vector was haha

@sflanker i found the lenght thanks but i am really working towards making interception i already have time to target,velocity of target and distance to target already in numbers (i mean actuall m/s,seconds etc) )but i am trying to piece it together do you have any formulae anything would be helpfull?

What do you mean, "to numbers?" You have a vector, do you want its length? Its x, y, and z components? Do you mean you want to plot an intercept course in heading & pitch based on your position, your target's position, and your target's velocity?
If you want length or x/y/z components there is an expression that takes a vector and has a drop down that defaults to length, that's the one you want.

lateral velocity=lv
vertical velocity=vv
speed=sqrt((lvlv)+(vvvv))
Am I right?
