    How Does Bending Knees Reduce Impact Force During a Jump?

    When jumping straight down, you can be seriously injured if you land stiff-legged. One way to avoid injury is to bend your knees upon landing to reduce the force of the impact. A 66.9-kg man just before contact with the ground has a speed of 4.22 m/s. (a) In a stiff-legged landing he comes to a...
