How do they measure the distance a javelin is thrown?
The distance a javelin is thrown is measured from the point where the javelin first strikes the ground to the nearest mark made by the point of the javelin that remains in the ground. The measurement is then taken in a straight line from the first mark to the throwing line.
How is a javelin throw measured if does not stick into the ground?
If a javelin does not stick into the ground, the throw is measured from the point where it first strikes the ground to the nearest edge of the curve made by the javelin. This method ensures a fair measurement of the distance thrown, even if the javelin does not stick into the ground.
What instrument is most probably used to measure the distance a javelin travels?
A measuring tape is commonly used to measure the distance a javelin travels. The tape is extended from the starting point to where the javelin landed to determine the distance thrown.
The path of motion of a thrown javelin is an example of motion (1 point)?
Projectile motion.
Did the weight of the Javelin changed through time?
Yes, the weight of the javelin used in Olympic competitions has changed over time. The weight of the javelin was reduced from 800 grams to 700 grams in 1986 to improve safety for athletes and spectators.
