How this calculator works
Ideal range is R = v² sin(2θ) / g.
Formula
R=v²sin(2θ)/gIdeal level-ground projectile range without air resistance.
Worked example
Verified example is a verified test case used by the calculation engine.
Assumptions and limitations
- No air resistance.
- Launch and landing heights are equal.
- Angle is 0–90 degrees and gravity is positive.
Methodology & sources
This calculator uses deterministic, versioned calculation logic. The formula and verified examples above are part of the calculation definition used by CalcuMint. Technical calculation version: 1.

Frequently asked questions
Does this include air resistance?
No. It is the ideal vacuum-style projectile model.
Why is gravity an input?
It allows the model to be used with an explicitly chosen gravitational acceleration.
