How do you find the optimal angle of a projectile motion? Since all paths meet at one point, we know we have found the launch angle for which the projectile’s horizontal path distance reaches a maximum. c = s 2hgv2 + v4 2agv2 + g2 . Recall c = v2/g cot✓m, so we find that the optimal initial angle, ✓m, is ✓m = arccot g v2 s2hgv2 + v4 2agv2 + g2 !
Why is 45 the best angle for projectile motion? The sine function reaches its largest output value, 1, with an input angle of 90 degrees, so we can see that for the longest-range punts 2θ = 90 degrees and, therefore, θ = 45 degrees. A projectile, in other words, travels the farthest when it is launched at an angle of 45 degrees.
Why is 45 degrees not the best launch angle? Optimal launch angle is around 25 degrees, not higher than 45. It wouldn’t get any distance before the air slowed it down if it were higher than 45.
At what angle the projectile motion is maximum? The textbooks say that the maximum range for projectile motion (with no air resistance) is 45 degrees.
