Why does a catapult shoot best from a 45 degree angle?
The [horizontal] range of a projectile is maximised when it shoots at a 45 degree angle. This is true if air resistance is ignored so that the only force acting on the projectile is gravity.
What angle the gun can fire the maximum range?
Theoretically, ignoring air friction, 45 degrees. But that also depends on muzzle velocity. If you can fire a projectile at a speed great enough, it would become an orbiting 'satellite' if fired parallel to the ground.
A cannon shoots a projectile at an angle of 60 degrees above the horizontal with an initial speed of 30.0 ms. Calculate the maximum height of the projectile and its range?
vx = 30.0 * cos 60 = 15.0 m/s vy = 30.0 * sin 60 = 25.9 m/s ax = -9.81 m/s/s; ay = 0 m/s/s At the maximum height, vf = 0 m/s 0 = 25.92 - 19.62dy dy = 34.1 m Range I don't know
Is 200 degree an obtuse angle?
No. An obtuse angle has a measure in the range (90, 180) degrees. The angle in question is greater than the maximum value for an obtuse angle.
Why there are two possiles angles for the same range of projectile?
When a projectile is shot at ground level the range formula is this... d = (v2/g) * sin 2*theta d=range v=velocity g=speed of gravity sin= sine function theta=angle that you make when the projectile is shot In your question you are asking about theta. The maximum distance you will get is when theta is 45 degrees. This is because of gravity. Gravity is pulling down on the object. When something is shot above 45 degrees gravity pull down on the object the same way as it pulls down on the corresponding angle below 45 degrees. When I say corresponding angle look below. Basically the answer to your question is because of gravity. Corresponding angles... 44 and 46 50 and 40 10 and 80 15 and 75 89 and 1 30 and 60 90 and 0 If you notice they all add up to 90 degrees. 90 degrees is the highest angle that can be shot. If it is greater than 90 degrees then the projectile will go behind you.
The angle of projection of a projectile for which the horizontal range and maximum height are equal?
45 degrees.
A projectile is fired in such a way that its horizontal range is equal to 14.5 times its maximum height What is the angle of projection?
15.42 degrees
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
How many the range of projectile is maximum when it is projected at an angle?
At 45° angle.
What is the maximum angle needed to have a longest range in projectile motion?
45 degrees is the furthest one
What is maximum rang of projectile motion?
Suppose a projectile is fired from a gun, we know that "g" remains constant and as we use horizontal component of velocity in range sov0 also remains constant. Only sin2θ responsible for change in range. The range will be maximum if sin2θ has its maximum value that is 1.for maximum range:sin2θ = 12θ = sin-1 (1)θ = 90/2θ = 45 (degree)therefor if projectile is projected with the angle of 45(degree) its range will be maximum.
How the angle of projection affect the range of the projectile?
Without considering any effects of air resistance and wind, the angle of projection that delivers the greatest horizontal range is 45 degrees above the horizon. Anything different ... either more or less than 45 degrees ... reduces the range.
What factors have a significant impact on a firearms maximum projectile range?
Speed, weight, and shape of the projectile- along with the angle at which the barrel is raised above the horizonatal.
What is a factor on a firearms maximum projectile range?
Factors include the angle at which it is fired, the speed of the projectile, its shape (ballistic coefficient) the air pressure and humidity.
What is the angle for maxium altitude?
A baseball, cannonball, or other projectile launched at a 45° angle above the horizon will achieve maximum horizontal range. A projectile launched straight up will achieve maximum altitude, but you kind of have to watch it and be careful when it returns.
Explain the effect of changing the angle of projection on the magnitude of maximum height?
"the higher the altitude the lower the range "
How do you calculate range of projectile from ground at A degrees if you know its range is 200 meters if its launched from height of 2 meters at A degrees?
You cannot. You need to know either the initial speed or angle of projection (A).
