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 term best describes an 89.9 degree angle?
acute
What is the the best catapult launch angle?
in a frictionless vacuum, 45°, otherwise (on earth), aim to have the projectile release when the arm is at about 40° from the base
What is the best way to hold the upper slide when using it to spread the inoculum across the slide being stained?
At a 45 degree angle
How do you kick people?
Good Question. I will explain the best i can.First you lift your leg at a 90 degree angle so if you look at the side of your body its like a "Z".Next you push only the bottom half of your leg out so now it looks like a 45 degree angle of a triangle by a side view.Finally hit the target. =D Hope this was useless.Haha have fun. you just want to put a question on here.
Find the measure of an angle whose supplement added to its complement is 240 degrees?
15 degrees.Though the problem uses geometric terminology, it's actually best done with algebra.Knowing that an angle and its complement add to 90, we can express the angle's complement as (90 - x).Similarly, since an angle with its supplement add to 180, we can express the supplement as (180 - x).Now we can put these together to0 create the basis for finding x.(90 - x) + (180 - x) = 240All that's left is to simplify step by step until we get our solution.90 - x + 180 - x = 240270 - 2x = 240-2x = -302x = 30x = 15And to verify, a 15-degree angle has a 75-degree complement and a 165-degree supplement. Sure enough, 75+165=240.
Does the angle of a catapult affect the distance of a ball?
Hello: * Yes, the angle of a catapult does affect the distance. And this applies to both changing the angle of the catapult and changing the angle of the terrain under the catapult. If you shoot the catapult at say 45 degrees, you have very good distance. If you shoot it at 30 degrees, while it may be further, it would be lower to the ground and perhaps not travel as far hitting trees and running into wind-shear. If you shoot at say 80 degrees, while the lob goes high up in the air, it won't travel very far. So your best bet, for maximum distance, is to take your catapult to the highest possible altitude, aim for 45 degrees, taking into account the wind direction and speed, and lob away. Don't hit anyone. :) Answer Actually, the maximum distance that can be achieved from a catapult is at an angle of 45 degrees. Every degree increase from 0 up to 45 approaches the maximum distance that something can be thrown. Every degree from 45 to 90 decreases the distance.
Where is the best angle to shoot a basketball from?
From the top of the key.
What is the best type of catapult?
A Trebuchet Catapult
What term best describes an 89.9 degree angle?
acute
Which angle best repersents an acute angle?
Well since an acute angle is everything with a smaller degree than a right angle, there is no perfect acute angle. However, to demonstrate an acute angle, i would go with around a 20-25 degree angle.
What is the the best catapult launch angle?
in a frictionless vacuum, 45°, otherwise (on earth), aim to have the projectile release when the arm is at about 40° from the base
What is the best angle for greenhouse glass for 36 degree lat N 90 degree W?
36
Which tool is best suited for transferring a 35 degree angle from a drawing to a shop project?
it is a try square
What is the best way to describe a right triangle?
Any triangle with a 90 degree angle is a right triangle.
Best blade angle?
the best angle is "45 degree" because the air speed coming out of the fan is giving by this equation V=v.tanθ were : V: air speed,,, v: is the blades speed and we got the maximum of the speed by making the angle 45
What kind of wood is best for a catapult?
Catapults are made from wood!
What are best ways to build a successful catapult?
The best way to build a catapult successfully is to use quality components based on a reliable design. This will ensure the device works effectively and safely.
