Which of the following sets of factors will affect the horizontal distance covered by an athlete in a long-jump event
Speed before he jumps and his weight
The direction in which he leaps and the initial speed
The force with which he pushes the ground and his speed
None of these
Which of the following sets of factors will affect the horizontal distance covered by an athlete in a long-jump event
Range$ = \frac{{{u^2}\sin 2\theta }}{g}.$It is clear that range is proportional to the direction (angle) and the initial speed.
