Homework Statement
I have a project that involves explaining the incorrect physics that happens in a particular scene of a movie. I chose to do Furious 7 and the scene where dom rolls out of the car because the brakes stopped working and the car crashes falls out of the tower. I need at least 3 points of what's wrong with the physics and what should have happened in reality. any calculations or diagrams would be helpful too. here is a clip of the scene and skip to 2:50 for what I'm talking about... Is there anything I can calculate to prove how the physics is wrong? any help is appreciated. thanks
Homework Equations
p = mv? - to calculate the car's momentum?
The Attempt at a Solution
So far, I know that Dom should have fallen out of the tower with the car since he was traveling the same speed as the car (correct me if I'm wrong). he didn't grab onto anything to stop himself from falling off the ledge he just stops rolling right at the edge. When the car crashes into the ground, it is close to the building, is that supposed to happen? [/B]
