Projectile Launch Angle
Projectile Launch Angle formula |
||
| \( \theta = \frac{ 1 }{ 2 } \; sin^{-1} \left( g\; d \;/\; v_0^2 \right) \) | ||
| Symbol | English | Metric |
| \( \theta \) = angle of the initial vertical from x-axis | \( deg \) | \( rad \) |
| \( g \) = gravitational acceleration | \(ft\;/\;sec^2\) | \(m\;/\;s^2\) |
| \( d \) = horizontal position | \( ft \) | \( m \) |
| \( v_0 \) = launch velocity | \(ft\;/\;sec\) | \(m\;/\;s\) |
