Flipping Physics Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 Name: Understanding the Range Equation of Projectile Motion Category: Kinematics Date Added: 10 June 2014 - 02:03 PM Submitter: Flipping Physics Short Description: None Provided The Horizontal Range of a Projectile is defined as the horizontal displacement of a projectile when the displacement of the projectile in the y-direction is zero. This video explains how to use the equation, why a launch angle of 45° gives the maximum range and why complimentary angles give the same range.
