So, I'm sorry Richard, but your answer is wrong.

Heh, well, we could get into a flame war here if we wanted to, but let's
not start one.  I'll just say that I'm right, and we'll leave it alone.

 I would like to say, this is an anime... a story based on fiction. The laws
of phsyics need not apply here. You want to see Phsyic apply anywhere, it
ain't in Ranma. REmember, Ranma characters are always jumping atleast a
couple of miles into the air. If Phsyics did apply, not to meantion a lot of
other stuff, alot of people would be dead. Akane would have cripple Ranma,
Kuno would have died long ago, after being punted into low orbit, than do to
his fall, having his kenetic energy immedaitly turned to that other eneergy,
(God I should have paid more attention in Phsyic instead of watching Ranma)
woould have made a Kuno pancake on teh road. 
 I'm not trying to contribute to a flame war, but remember, this is a story.
And you forget, the heart of any good anime or manga is bad science!!
