Projectile Motion: 25 m/s at 60°
At 60° and 25 m/s, the projectile reaches a high arc with range equal to that of a 30° launch at the same speed.
How to use this tool
- Enter launch velocity, launch angle, initial height and gravitational acceleration in the fields above.

- Read your horizontal range and the full breakdown beneath it.
Explore the 60-degree case, which is the complementary angle to 30° and yields the same range at the same speed.
Frequently asked questions
- Which angle maximises range?
- 45° maximises range on flat ground. With an elevated launch point the optimal angle is slightly less than 45°.
- Can I use different gravity values?
- Yes — use 1.62 m/s² for the Moon, 3.72 for Mars, or 24.79 for Jupiter.
