Answer

$2\sqrt {11}$

Work Step by Step

Let us consider that vector $v$ is given by: $v=pi+qj+rz$ The magnitude of a vector can be determined using the formula $||v||=\sqrt{p^2+q^2+r^2} ...(1)$ We will use the formula (1) to obtain: $||v||=\sqrt{(6)^2+(2)^2+(-2)^2}\\ =\sqrt{36+4+4}\\ =\sqrt{44} \\=2\sqrt {11}$
