Javelin Throw Quiz:-

The javelin throw is a track and field event in which athletes attempt to throw a long, spear-like object, called a javelin, as far as possible. The javelin is made of metal or composite materials and has a pointed tip. Athletes run along a runway to gain momentum before releasing the javelin into the air at an optimal angle. The distance is measured from the point where the javelin lands to the throwing arc. The men’s javelin weighs 800 grams, while the women’s weighs 600 grams. The event requires strength, speed, coordination, and precise technique to achieve maximum distance.
