An athlete can take longer jump if he comes running from a distance behind as compared to that when he jumps suddenly without running explain?
Sir Isaac's first law: An object in motion, tends to stay in motion. If you try and jump from a stopped position you have to exert an enormous amount of energy all at once. According to Newton, if you are already moving then you don't have to exert that burst of energy all at once. If you add that energy all at once when you are already moving then it gets added to the energy of the existing motion.

How does momentum effect jumping distance?
Momentum affect jumping a great deal, that is why a standing long jump is significantly less that one taken at close to maximum speed.

A jumper can negate their running speed by slowing down at the board, lengthening the strides at the board or by dropping the hips too low.
