This is probably because I've set the distance floor-swing to be zero, which is not true in real life. I'll try to redo the maths with a non-zero distance and update the results :)
EDIT: I just added a new parameter to account for the distance from swing to floor, and now the maximum distance is 2 meters.
- pcthrowaway 3y agoWouldn't the height of the swingset be a factor? I imagine if the swing is suspended from 50m you can continue winding up for a long time and jump from a height of 15+m which would give you a lot more horizontal movement before you hit the ground. I mean the article doesn't say anything about calculating the farthest survivable jump from a swingset
