The angle in which a cricket ball should be hit to travel maximum horizontal distance is :

Q: Answer-The angle in which a cricket ball should be hit to travel maximum horizontal distance is :

This has to do with the equation of a parabola or trajectory which is z tanex 2 cos 9 2. We can see that if the ball is fired at a 45 degree angle from the ground, the horizontal distance will be a maximum.

A 60° with horizontal

B 45° with horizontal

C 30° with horizontal

D 15° with horizontal
