I will assume a vector in a plane - in two dimensions. The idea of polar coordinates is that the vector is expressed as its length, and an angle.
If you already have the vector in rectangular coordinates, i.e. the x and y components, most scientific calculators have a function that might be labelled R->P, to convert from rectangular coordinates to polar coordinates. Otherwise, use basic trigonometry - but using the specialized function is much faster, if your calculator has it.

Vector component greater than the vectors magnitude?
can a vector have a component greater than the vector magnitude
Can a vector have a component greater than the vector's magnitude?
No.
Can a vector have a component greater than the magnitude of the vector?
No.
Can a component of vector greater than vector magnitude?
No.
Can a vector have zero magnitude if one of its component is not zero?
No. The magnitude of a vector can't be less than any component.
What is the difference between a resultant vector and a component vector?
The resultant vector describes the complete vector, magnitude and direction; while the component vector describes a single component of a vector, like the x-component. If the resultant vector has only one component, the resultant and the component are the same and there is no difference.t
Can a vector have a component greater than the magnitude of vector?
no a vector cannot have a component greater than the magnitude of vector
Will a vector be zero if anyone of its component is zero?
If any component of a vector is not zero, then the vector is not zero.
Vector component greater than the vectors magnitude?
can a vector have a component greater than the vector magnitude
What is Vector quantity?
Associates the direction taken with the speedAny quantity that has direction and magnitude associated with it is considered a vector quantity. An example of a vector quantity would be velocity. It must be expressed with reference to a direction.-aerol_
What are vector components?
prrpendicular projections of a vector called component of vector
Can a vector have a component greater than the magnitude of the vector?
No.
Can a vector have a component greater than the vector's magnitude?
No.
Can a component of vector greater than vector magnitude?
No.
How do you find the component of a vector perpendicular to another vector?
The component of a vector x perpendicular to the vector y is x*y*sin(A) where A is the angle between the two vectors.
Can the component of a vector ever be greater than the magnitude of the vector?
No.
When can a nonzero vector have a zero horizontal component?
When the direction of the vector is vertical. Gravitational force has zero horizontal component.
