The correct angle of throwing a javelin is 45 degree.The physics concept behind this is known as impulse.According to this law if an object is thrown at an angle of 45 degree it travels much range(horizontal distance) than throwing at any other angle this law not only applies for javelin but also for firing an cannon or shooting a gun on an arrow into the space.

Is there an optimal angle to throw a javelin?

Throwing a javelin at the optimal angle. Throwing a javeline at the optimal angle is throwing a javelin at the angle which the air flows efficiently around the javeline.The center of pressure is the aerodynamic force of drag and lift on the javelin.before the 1986 change in javelins , some of the best throwers in the world would throw the javelin with as little as 30 degree angle but greater speed because they were able to hold onto the javelin for longer , producing more force . Good throwers still use this method but the most commen method is releasing the javelin at about a 40 degree angles,causing a longer flight for the javelin.
