Horizontal Range
Asked by Mahima A · 2 years ago
What is the formula for the maximum horizontal range of a projectile?
1 Answer
The formula for the maximum horizontal range of a projectile is:
R = (u2 * sin2θ) / g
Where:
R = horizontal range
u = initial velocity
θ = angle of projection
g = acceleration due to gravity (9.8 m/s2)
The maximum range occurs when sin2θ = 1, which happens at an angle of 45°.
R = (u2 * sin2θ) / g

θ = angle of projection
g = acceleration due to gravity (9.8 m/s2)
