Velocity is a vector, with two
components: Speed and direction
That is wrong as well! Correct: Velocity is a vector, pointing in the direction where the object (the rocket) is going. Its length reflect the speed at which the object is going. In Cartesian 3-space, any vector has 3 components. (x,y,z)
