I would agree that a velocity and strength would be needed to determine the distance in a Long jump. There should be a formula for it though. *ponder* Off the top of my head, Value of speed + Value of Str - Value of Weight = Distance traveled? Which would be V * Str / effects of gravity. *thinks* something like that.
 
I haven't done the math, but I would start with something like this. 
 
I think there should be a fairly simple way to guestimate without getting sin/cos/tan involved. *winks at Travis or whomever mentioned sin/cos/tan in a formula. I forget* though your forumla seems correct to me, I'll agree with your point.
 
I also agree with the point about faster things should go farther in a long jump situation.
 
No I didn't fully read all the messages, but got the point of the issue at hand.
 
*needs to find a bit more time in a day*
