Answer 1

Long jump sport is not an example of the linear motion.

• The long jump sport is an example of curvilinear motion as the body travels in a curve.
• While when a bullet is targeted from the pistol its motion is a linear motion or translatory motion as the bullet moves in a straight line.
• Same is the case when an object is dropped from a certain height and the parade of soldiers, all of them move in a straight line.
