Physics: Optimal angle for a projectile part 1: Components of initial velocity
Description
You want a projectile to fly as far as possible, at which angle should you launch it? We'll start with formulas for the initial velocity.
Physics
Learn about the basic principles that govern the physical world around us. Solid understanding of algebra and a basic understanding of trigonometry necessary.
Optimal angle for a projectile
This tutorial tackles a fundamental question when trying to launch things as far as possible (key if you're looking to capture a fort with anything from water balloons to arrows). With a bit of calculus, we'll get to a fairly intuitive answer.
Topic: Science
