vector's

Magnitude and direction's

Vector's is the possessive form of vector.

A vector is something that carries or conveys—in biology, an organism that transmits disease: The mosquito vector's bite spreads malaria.

In mathematics and physics, a vector is a quantity with both magnitude and direction: The vector's components determine its trajectory.

The word extends to any carrier or course: The company changed its vector's direction.
