Projectile Motion Calculator
Use this projectile motion calculator to estimate the motion of an object launched through the air. Enter launch speed, angle, height and gravity settings and review flight time, range, maximum height or related values.
Idealized model: no air resistance, level launch and landing height, constant gravity g = 9.81 m/s².

How it works
Range = v²sin(2θ)/g; max height = v²sin²(θ)/(2g); time = 2v·sin(θ)/gHow to use the Projectile Motion Calculator
Start by entering launch speed, angle, height and gravity settings. Keep the units consistent and check that each value belongs to the same question.
The result gives flight time, range, maximum height or related values. Air resistance and wind are not included in the basic model. Use it as a guide and check any instructions, rules or professional advice that apply.
