Document Summary
Projectile motion the change of motion of an object after it has been projected into the air. Question what is the optimum angle of release for a shot putter to throw the maximum distance? when trying to throw max distance, you want to even out vertical and horizontal velocity. Maximum vertical distance with some horizontal maximum horizontal distance (dhoriz) Vhoriz less than 45 degrees long throw long jump. Vvert greater than 45 volleyball jumps high jumps. 1 % extremely minimal other sports that aren"t projectile, have a lot higher. Maximum vvertical heigh of cog at takeof point. Vertical with some vhoriz tumbling: jumps reaching great heights while moving from corner to corner high jump: carry body from takeof to pit straddle vs lop. F resistive are gravity, air resistance, ground friction critical features for max distancehoriz projections are horizontal v at release height of release angle of release.
