A jump is usually classified as from both feet planted and springing forth.
A hop is usually classified as from one foot, or one foot to another and so on. This comes from me and my 8 year old son who do "Hop Scotch" and not "Jump Scotch"!

Jump implies a more formal, planned effort: hop is more casual, tentative! you hop from job to job: jump a queue! hop from city to city in your random travels, or trying to find connections for your destination: jump when startled by someone (that someone planned the jump for you!)

I think the best way to determine to conclusion would be to observe the similarity's and differences and clearly the only thing these opposing forces have in shared truths is the 'p' at the end of there on syllable verbs

WIth a hop, you land on the same foot from which you leapt; in a jump, you don't.
