What is the maximum range of projectile?

The maximum range of a projectile is the distance it travels horizontally before hitting the ground. It is influenced by factors such as initial velocity, launch angle, and air resistance. In a vacuum, the maximum range is achieved at a launch angle of 45 degrees.


The range of projectile is maximum when the angle of projection is?

The range of projectile is maximum when the angle of projection is 45 Degrees.


How high does projectile go?

The maximum height of a projectile depends on its initial velocity and launch angle. In ideal conditions, the maximum height occurs when the launch angle is 45 degrees, reaching a height equal to half the maximum range of the projectile.


What factor has a significant impact on a firearm's range?

The first factors are: Speed, weight, and shape of the projectile. Speed will be determined by the powder charge used to drive the bullet, and the length of the barrel. Elevation angle (the angle at which the barrel points upward) will then increase or decrease the range based on the first three factors. For most firearms the optimal elevation angle is between 30 and 40 degrees for maximum range. Other lesser factors include the weather (wind, humidity, temperature) and altitude. Even the Coriolis Effect can play a small factor.


At what launch angle or angles will the projectile land at half of its maximum possible range?

The half maximum range of a projectile is launched at an angle of 15 degree


Under what conditions will a projectile travel maximum range?

Ignoring the effects of wind and air-resistance in general, maximum projectile range results when the projectile is launched/fired in a direction 45 degrees above the horizontal.


How does the launch angle relate to the initial speed of the projectile?

The launch angle and initial speed of a projectile are both factors that determine the range and height of the projectile. A higher launch angle with the same initial speed will typically result in a longer range but lower maximum height. Conversely, a lower launch angle with the same initial speed will result in a shorter range but a higher maximum height.


How can one determine the maximum height reached by a projectile?

To determine the maximum height reached by a projectile, you can use the formula: maximum height (initial vertical velocity)2 / (2 acceleration due to gravity). This formula calculates the height based on the initial vertical velocity of the projectile and the acceleration due to gravity.
