And so continues my series of JJBA calcs.
J. Geil's Hanged Man stand travels between reflective surfaces at the speed of light.
Spoiler:
The coin Kakyoin tosses is a British silver penny marked with the inscription Georgivs III Dei Gratia. Why he'd have such an old penny, I don't know, but Wikipedia tells me these guys are at most 14mm in diameter.
Here we see Silver Chariot intercept the Hanged Man millimeters away from reaching the reflective surface of the coin.
(0.014/40.7)14=0.0048m
0.0048/299792458=.016 nanoseconds
Mike's calc tells me that Silver Chariot's head is about .3180656161m. One's arm will generally be 3.5 times the length of his head, give or take.
.3180656161*3.5=1.11323m
Now that swing looks to be a bit more than 90 degrees. I'll just use 90 because I'm lazy like that.
s=theta*r
s=(pi/2)1.11322
s=1.74864m
1.74864/1.6e-11=1.0929e11m/s
or about 365c.
This kinda low-balls Silver Chariot's actual movements, considering Polnareff was standing a fair distance away from the Indian dude, but good enough.
