rock.freak667 said:You have your formula for the range as
[tex]d = \frac{{v_{0}}^2 sin2 \theta}{g}[/tex]
For you to throw it at the max range, you'd need to throw it such that your angle θ and hence sin2θ is maximum.
What is the maximum value that sin2θ can be?
Projectile motion is the motion of an object through the air that is influenced by gravity and has a constant horizontal velocity. It follows a curved path known as a parabola.
Regular motion is the motion of an object that is not influenced by external forces, while projectile motion is affected by gravity. This means that the object will follow a curved path rather than a straight line.
The horizontal and vertical motion of a projectile are independent of each other. This means that while the object is moving horizontally at a constant velocity, it is also accelerating vertically due to the force of gravity. The two motions combine to create the curved path of the projectile.
The trajectory of a projectile is affected by the initial velocity, the angle at which it is launched, and the force of gravity. Air resistance can also play a role in altering the trajectory.
Projectile motion has many real-life applications, such as in sports like baseball or golf, where the trajectory of the ball is crucial for scoring. It is also used in engineering for designing and launching rockets, missiles, and other projectiles. In addition, it can be used in physics experiments to study the effects of gravity and motion.
