public void Velocity(double[] doub)
{
    double speed;
    // MY CODE for speed aquisiction
    speed = deltax/deltat //the deltas are calculated above, no need to show it here

Passing Textbox is not a very good option. As you are creating a function so it would be more meaningful that function does its work and return calculated value. So wherever I required to get the value, I can get by simply calling a function.

In this way I can use the value in whatever purpose I would like e.g. setting the text of textbox.

It would be great if you do something like this

public double Velocity(double[] doub)
{
    double speed;
    // MY CODE for speed aquisiction
    speed = deltax/deltat //the deltas are calculated above, no need to show it here
    return speed;
}

// update the text of textbox by calling the function wherever required.
Boxname.Text = Velocity().ToString();
