Question : The angle at which a cricket ball should be hit to travel a maximum horizontal distance is:
Option 1: 60o with the horizontal
Option 2: 45o with the horizontal
Option 3: 30o with the horizontal
Option 4: 15o with the horizontal
Correct Answer: 45 o with the horizontal
Solution : The correct option is 45 o with the horizontal .
To achieve the maximum horizontal distance, a cricket ball should be hit at an angle of 45°. When the projection angle is 45 degrees, the greatest horizontal distance is reached. This is because the projectile travels the most horizontal distance before impact at this angle when the starting velocity's horizontal and vertical components are comparable.
