Abstract
The classic problem of the motion of a point mass thrown at an angle to the horizon isreviewed. The air drag force is taken into account with the drag factor assumed to beconstant. An analytical approach is used for the investigation. Simple analytical formulaeare used to solve two problems of optimization aimed at maximizing the flight range of apoint mass and minimizing the initial speed of the point mass for getting to thegiven point on the plane. The motion of a baseball is presented as an example.
