Can we do a physics analysis of the cars jumping between skyscrapers from Furious 7 please?

Sure guys, just let me plug it into my physics analyser.

You getting butt hosed isn't gonna help us

We need another stats goon to run the numbers. Possibly re enact the jump with hot wheels

Here, let me explain. The guy driving the car is cool (and hot). The car he is driving is also cool and very fast. The idea of jumping a car between two skyscrapers is extremely cool. The cool guy drives a cool fast car sideways then jumps between two buildings, which, as discussed before, is extremely cool. What do you not understand?

Do not accost the helpful goons.

I would use the x as a known (since we know the distance between the two buildings) and instead solve for y (the drop). Like if the drop was 16m instead of 15m like your assumption, that might be enough to get you over 50m traveled.

You've got gravitational acceleration down as vertical velocity.

x=x₀+v_x0t+.5a_xt²
y=y₀+v_y0t+.5a_yt²

x is distance between buildings
x0 is 0
vx0 is how fast you want to go at takeoff
ax is 0 unless you want to get fancy and include drag (in the negative) based on the frontal area of the car
y0 is 0
vy0 is 0
ay is -9.8m/s^2

Your unknowns are t and y, and you have 2 equations to solve for them. If y is greater than however high you think the car jumps from, it'd have hit the ground before reaching the other tower.

Did these guys get enough distance to go between buildings though??

Luckily, I have my Texas Instruments 83 silver. So solving this should be a breeze......
