A property common to both vectors and scalars. In the graphical representation of a vector, the vectorâ€(tm)s magnitude is equal to the length of the arrow.
The "amount" associated with a vector; the vector stripped of any information about its direction.
The magnitude indicates the current value of a quantity.
a number assigned to the ratio of two quantities; two quantities are of the same order of magnitude if one is less than 10 times as large as the other; the number of magnitudes that the quantities differ is specified to within a power of 10
Magnitude is a property that can be quantitatively described, such as the volume of a sphere or the length of a vector.
The value of a scalar, the length of a vector, the area of a bivector, the volume of a trivector, or the sum of all these in a mixed multivector.
scalar value having physical units.
An amount equal to 10 times a given value; thus if some quantity was 10 times as great as another quantity, it would be an order of magnitude greater; if 100 times as great, it would be larger by two orders of magnitude
Magnitude is a scalar quantity and consists of a number assigned to a quantity enabling comparisons to be made on the basis of the ratio of any two such quantities.
The length of a magnetization vector. In MRI the square root of the sum of the squares of M and M components of transverse magnetization. [ Chapter 2
The value of quantity, such as the number of volts of voltage or the number of amperes of current.
Mathematics. a. A number assigned to a quantity so that it may be compared with other quantities. b. A property that can be quantitatively described, such as the volume of a sphere, the length of a vector, or the value of a voltage or current waveform.
