A jumper does a standing long jump with and without arm swing. How much does arm swing effect flight phase horizontal displacement? Jump without arm swing dx flight =1.35 m. With arm swing his vertical take off velocity increases 35% from 0.8m/s to 1.08 m/s and his horizontal take off velocity increased 10% from 4.5 m/s to 4.95 m/s. His Center of mass height at landing is .2m lower than his com height at take off.
