Well, first, in order to maximize the canon's shooting range, we will need it to be in a 45 degree angle. that will make the canon shoot the furthest. however, that is if there is no air resistance and wind affecting the light light canon ball we were FORCED TO USE STYROFOAM TO BUILD >:( sigh, so anyways, without wind patterns there should be no problem with the ball shooting its maximum range.
Also we use this equation: R = V²sin(2θ)/g to calculate it. We determine the value of θ to be sin(2θ) since we are assuming v and g do not change... Well, we need it to be sin 90 which means they need it to be a 45 degree angle.
