Basically, you just give the magnitude of the vector and the angle (from the positive x-axis) that the vector is pointing. Here is an example (using the same vector from before): ...

A vector describes a movement from one point to another. A vector quantity has both direction and magnitude (size).

What is a vector, and how can we use it in electrical design? According to the “IEEE Standard Dictionary of Electrical and Electronic Terms,” a vector quantity is “any physical quantity whose ...

Vector: velocity (most physicist reserve the word “speed” to mean just the magnitude), acceleration, force, momentum, displacement, electric field ...
