Quick answer
Projectile range is maximised at a 45 degree launch angle in a vacuum.
R = v² sin(2θ) ÷ g

Frequently asked questions
Is 45° always optimal?
Only from ground level — launching from height favours a slightly lower angle.
Does this include drag?
No — real ranges are shorter, especially for light objects.
