Friction occurs between the athlete's feet and the takeoff board during the long jump. This friction allows the athlete to push off with force to propel themselves forward into the jump. Additionally, there is also friction between the athlete's body and the air as they move through the jump.
The runway - where the athlete takes their run-up. The take off strip - where the athlete must NOT step over to make the jump count. The landing area -where the athlete will land after they've jumped.
In long jump, momentum plays a crucial role in propelling the athlete forward and increasing the distance covered. The greater the speed and body mass of the athlete during takeoff, the more momentum they can generate for the jump. This momentum helps the athlete maintain their velocity in the air and cover a longer distance.
The long jump is where you have a long strip of sand which you run to and jump as far as you can along it whilst the high jump is where there is a pole which the athletes have to jump over and it gets raised every time each athlete has jumped. :)
He broke the record for the long jump distance
its obviously Larry Fitzgerald he can out jump anyone and catch anything what a beast
3rd jump:4.647 meters
Long jump is measured from the takeoff line to the closest landing point in the sand pit. The distance is measured in meters from the edge of the takeoff board where the athlete's foot leaves the ground to the mark left by the athlete's nearest body part.
A long jump measures an athlete's ability to generate power and speed before leaping to cover a horizontally extended distance. It tests explosive strength, coordination, and technique to achieve the farthest jump possible.
The world record for the long jump by an under-16 athlete is 7.99 meters, set by Marcell Lamont Jacobs from Italy in 2012.

Friction occurs between the athlete's feet and the ground during the takeoff and landing phases of the long jump. This friction helps generate the necessary force for jumping and assists in decelerating upon landing. Additionally, friction may also occur between the athlete's body and the air during the jump itself.
