2D Kinematics Vector Solver implementation

Binding contract

This record describes what an executable surface must bind and validate. It does not claim that a public calculator, package, or production route is deployed.

Effect

Computation or source lookup only

Input and validation requirements

The extreme-magnitude vector produces Infinity and -Infinity through overflow in plain JavaScript arithmetic. The solver is also vulnerable to materially different results if angle units or vertical-axis/sign conventions are not enforced.

Required corrections

No binding erratum is attached to this unique-name record. Implementers must still preserve the declared units, domain, and failure behavior.

Inspectable interface fixture

The sample below is evidence for interface and validation tests, not a production implementation.
