Question

What is launch angle and Launch velocity(ms) to hit target 153 feet away

Answer 1

Launch Angle represents the vertical angle at which the ball leaves a player's bat after being struck. Average Launch Angle (aLA) is calculated by dividing the sum of all Launch Angles by all Batted Ball Events.

As a guideline, here are the Launch Angles for different types of contact:

Ground ball: Less than 10 degrees.

Line drive: 10-25 degrees.

Fly ball: 25-50 degrees.

Pop up: Greater than 50 degrees.

Launch velocity : A projectile is launched with an initial horizontal velocity from an elevated position and follows a parabolic path to the ground. Predictable unknowns include the initial speed of the projectile, the initial height of the projectile, the time of flight, and the horizontal distance of the projectile.

Formula : The range of an object, given the initial launch angle and initial velocity is found with: R=v2isin2θig R = v i 2 sin ⁡ 2 θ i g . The maximum height of an object, given the initial launch angle and initial velocity is found with:h=v2isin2θi2g h = v i 2 sin 2 ⁡ θ i 2 g .
