The document analyzes the physics of a hot rod jump stunt shown in a movie to determine if it was possible. It calculates that the minimum speed needed to jump a 1.8 meter truck from a ramp at a 15 degree angle is 8.9 meters per second. However, the stunt driver in the movie only traveled at 4.5 meters per second and failed to clear the truck, with the ramp breaking. Therefore, the conclusion is that the movie stunt jump was not actually possible even with a reinforced ramp due to insufficient takeoff speed.

Aim The aim of this presentation, is to find out, whether or not this jump is real, or just movie effects.
Hypothesis My origional hypothesis, was that this jump is possible, if the ramp was reinforced and stable.
Materials Video microsoft paint or adobe photoshop Google images
Information gathered The average width mail truck is 1.80 meters 2cm= 180 cm 1cm= 90 cm 4.5 cm x 90= 810 cm = 4.05 meters(jump distance) 10cm x 90= 900 cm =9 meters (distance油traveled)油 9 meters油traveled油in 2 seconds the ramp is at 15 degrees.

Conclusion, Was the jump possible?油 The answer is no.油 The jump in this movie, was a failure as "Rodney Kimble" was unable jump the mail truck, as the ramp broke. Even if the ramp were reinforced, he would have similar results to the movies, because he traveled at 4.5 meters per second.油 The minimum speed needed, was 8.9 meters per second, in order to jump the 1.80 meter truck. This resulted in serious injuries.
