Dear all,
I have the x and y positions of a certain object at 1 second intervals in time. The x positions are stored inside a 1xn matrix, where n is the number of seconds for which the data was obtained. The y positions are also stored inside a 1xn matrix, where n is again the number of seconds for which the object was observed. Now I need to obtain the velocity of the object. I could obtain the x and y velocities separately and store them inside two new matrices by using the diff() function on both x and y position matrices, but I need the velocity of the object as a whole. Can anybody please advise what to do? Thanks.
