    Fair Warning: Omnicalculator's Relativistic KE Calc is Wrong

    So, a lot of our calcs use Omnicalculator's Relativistic KE calculator and... Well, I come to find out that the way that calculator handled relativistic KE is actually wrong. So I did the math with fixed values: 0.95c for speed and 1 kg for mass. So when plugging in the values for relativistic...

    Cosmic Explosion Revision - Shockwaves Are Slow

    This thread pertains to calculations involving images showing the destruction of large objects, such as this one. It means to clarify that a shockwave being visible does not mean that the feat occurred in seconds, because shockwaves are slow. Shockwaves through the air are sound, and they...

    FTL kinetic energy

    so im wondering if it is allowed to use kinetic energy for objects that are faster than light (but meets most ke requirements) if we purposely lower their speed. so for exemple, a 100 meter wide sphere of steel going at 3 times the speed of light, and the verse is already known to portray...

    Clarification for a KE rule

    I've already asked permission from @Agnaa for opening this. First of all, I'd like to note that this has nothing to do with the rule change. In short, I noticed that a rule on the KE page was misinterpreted by a lot of people and thought it needed to be clarified. Rule: There is a...

    [Minor Page Change] A speed value is a little wrong (again).

    hi this page says Relativistic Kinetic Energy is 4x higher than Newtonian KE at 93% SoL. this is not true, it happens at ~96.82458% SoL, take your choice of significant figures. idk if i have to make a thread for this or if i could have just asked a content mod to unlock it for like 5 minutes...

    Question about eclipse calcs

    Knowing the time frame of the feat, how do I calculate the energy expending in manually causing a lunar eclipse? The celestial bodies in question are just our irl sun, Earth, and moon.

    Planetary KE feats REDUX

    Continuation of this thread. So basically in the original thread from what I can gather, based on these four comments on the thread, the conditions were made as such that for KE to be usable for these feats, we would need proof that ALL of the debris travelled the same distance at the same time...

    Speed from Heat Standards

    Why is this included on our references for common feats page? It cites an article that gives us almost zero information on how that information was attained. The only thing that article gives a source for is: Even then, it just says that NASA said that, without providing a source for us to...

    Speed From KE

    Our page on Kinetic Energy Feats says that fiction often fails to differentiate between the attack potency and the speed of a character, and because it leads to unrealistic values. Does this leave any room for specific cases where neither of those seem to apply? I'm specifically thinking of...

    Impossibly Massive Celestial Body Destruction Calcs are just Faster Than Light Kinetic Energy Calcs

    Alright so this exists for the purpose of pointing out a double-standard in the rules for Kinetic Energy feats. So, Faster Than Light Kinetic Energy is not allowed given how the Relativistic KE Formula goes to infinity energy at light speed, and using the Regular Kinetic Energy Formula which...

    Force From KE

    I have found three calcs (One, Two, Three), two of which are accepted, that involve dividing the energy of KE by the length of a character's arm to get force. I see no reason for this to be valid. The third of these provided no explanation for it when @Dark-Carioca asked, with @Ugarik accepting...

    Lighter-Than-Robert Wadlow Kinetic Energy

    Alright so I found out here- Question- does apply to literally every KE Feat now? (Besides The Real World Calcs obviously because physics works IRL). As in, is AP from KE for normal sized people or small projectiles no longer allowed? Because I'm confused.

    Divine Deep Forest Emergence and Variable-Mass System KE

    Issue with Kinetic Energy rules

    Staff Thread I want to keep this OP short. This was brought up in an OPM thread starting from message #28. From the Kinetic Energy page: There is a destruction/AP calculation contradicting a kinetic energy calculation. The destruction/AP calculation would take priority over the kinetic energy...

    A contradictory calc guidelines: Large Size rules vs KE rules

    Came across this when evaluating some calcs. On the Large Size Calculations page, it is said that the old method of upscaling speed from size is invalid and either use GBE or the speed the character actually shows on screen. However, the Kinetic Energy standards we have at the moment says we...

    The issue of Potential Energy

    In this thread I’ll tackle some issues with how we use Potential Energy (GPE). We currently calculate them by simply looking at the Energy an object has before and after a feat within a gravitational field, but quite frankly, that’s a bad way to determine how “good” that feat really is. At least...

    Calc Stacking Issue

    I think the last example listed on the Calc Stacking page should be replaced or removed. It currently reads: This is not calc stacking, this is just a violation of our standards for Kinetic Energy Feats. The character punched and had a fist weighing about 0.5kg in the same scene. Other feats...

    I checked our Hurricane (Real World) page and it says that the AP of a Hurricane is 8-A (Multi-City Block level) kinetic energy. How far into 8-A is it?

    Question about meteor feats in general

    If a character pull an asteroid from outer space and bring it to Earth's surface with telekinesis or/and gravity power, would that fully scale to that character's AP? However in this scenario there is no information where the asteroid was located before it was pull from space and there is no...

    Small problem with kinetic energy calcs

    I’ve notice a problem with kinetic energy calcs and I’m finally in the mood to talk about it. Pretty much in games you can shoot guns or summon lightning at people when they do certain actions that would count for KE. Like Uraraka can throw large boulders at you while another character uses a...

    Relativistic/FTL Kinetic Energy Question

    1) Now yes I am aware anything near the speed of light or faster cannot be reached, as it requires infinite energy. I'm not trying to disapprove of anything, I am rather just misunderstood and curious about this comparison. Though it always bothered me why the Speed of Light and above aren't...

    It all spawns from here. I try to summarise the problems found: 1. From time to time we found characters that jumped good - I mean, jumping really high. Vertical jump requires travelling upward by jumping upward, which involves a leg thrust. KE on ground = PE stalled at a height upward 0.5 m...

    Kinetic Energy when two characters are moving?

    Example: Character A is 60 kg and is flying at mach 3 Character B is 60 kg and is flying at mach 9 in the opposite direction, and crashes into character A on propouse to hurt them. How does character B's speed affect the kinetic energy calculation?

    Planetary KE calcs

    How do you calculate KE of an object toppling over?

    Say you have a large cylindrical object that falls on a character and you want to figure out how much they're tanking, how would you do it? The object has just been given a slight nudge and falls on its side under the effects of gravity and nothing else.

    Up to 4 times the Newtonian value

    Why is the standard for the kinetic energy value to only be accepted up to 4 times the Newtonian value? I'm not questioning why there is such a standard, what I want to know is why it is specifically 4 times.

    FTL Star KE Question

    If you were to physically strike a star which moved it at FTL speeds, why would it still be Star level and not something like Solar System (given how it goes 4-B once it reaches around 90% SoL from what I saw)? It wouldnt really make sense for something to go baseline if it surpasses the speed...

    Question on Rela/FTL Kinetic Energy

    I'll say right here first, this is not a proposal for FTL KE to be used. Getting that out of the way So, there is hundreds to thousands of verses that have feats that can't be used due to FTL not working KE wise. But I have one question to this, which is could they scale to the highest level of...

    Sword Kinetic Energy

    This is an inquiry on Kinetic Energy Feats standards: So a character who does speed amp attacks laments that his slashes are too shallow to disorientate his opponent because he is not moving fast enough, he then uses a superior speed amp (Godspeed) to deliver a stronger slash. I am thinking...

    Problem with Celestial Body Feats

The problem is, when you move a planet close to light speed, it actually gets a higher AP than moving a planet...

    How great does a kinetic energy feat have to be, to be an outlier?

    A lot of the time when i see characters ranked at a certain level for a kinetic energy feat, their tiers are often vastly above any other non ke feat they or anybody they scale to has ever shown. The thing im wondering is, when would a ke feat be too far above a characters normal showings and...
