Question

Athletes often land on sand after taking a high jump to avoid

getting hurt.
give reson ​

Answer 1

This is because after high jump, his momentum has to be reduced to zero in order to stop him. When an athlete lands on sand, the time taken to reduce his momentum to zero is increased. Because of more time, accreleration will be less sice acceleartion is inversely proportional to time and because of less acceleration less force will be there since acceleration is directly proportional to force. Hence less force acts on the athlete's body which prevents him from getting hurt.
