    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

    Problem Currently, we are allowed to calculate the KE for celestial body feats, but when it surpasses light speed we use the gravitational binding energy of the celestial body instead. The problem is, when you move a planet close to light speed, it actually gets a higher AP than moving a planet...

    High speed Newtonian and relativistic kinetic energy feats

    We have our rules in this page that the relativistic kinetic energy diverges towards infinity for speeds approaching the speed of light. So to not get inflated extremely high results: Kinetic energy calculated for faster than light objects, or more precise for objects for which...

    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...

    Can Reaction Speed be used to find KE?

    Looking at the Rhedosaurus page and seeing how his Ap is based on a KE calc that's using his Reaction Speed rather than conventional running/travel speed made me wonder, is using a character's reaction speed to find their KE even applicable? Not just for Rhedosaurus, but for any character/KE...

    Kinetic Energy for Faster than Light speed

    I'm trying to find any logical reason not to allow calculating kinetic energy using 1/2mV2 formula for FTL speed that would be consistent with our wiki standards and it seems I can not find any. Kinetic Energy Feats page says: That is because the kinetic energy of an object, using the correct...

    My Little Pony: Revisions are Indeed Magic

    Oh yeah, we're doing this. Yet again we're discussing Solar System level My Little Pony. Frankly, after going through the arguments against it, I'm starting to see some hypocrisy and I'm pretty pissed about it. So if I come off as passive-aggressive, you'll have to excuse me. This has been...

    Calc Stacking Question

    Would it be considered Calc Stacking to use a character's calculated speed for an AP feat? For example... A massive character can tag a Reletivistic character (Via Calculation) with their punches. Which of these senarios would be allowed? 1. The KE of the fist can be calculated with the speed...

    Question re calc stacking and power scaling

    I have been visiting the pages of powerscaling and calc stacking and some examples really disturbed me especially when visiting other fictional verses. Examples of calc stacking that cannot be applied Character A moved so fast that character B couldn't react to him. So character A needs to...

    About FTL KE

    We all know we can't calc FTL KE on this wiki, we can use a max of 0.93c. But if the verse states that they have KE while FTL speeds? Can we use the speed for this?

    Kinetic Energy Standards

    There is a certain thing that has been bothering me lately, and that is our kinetic energy standards, or rather a certain part of our kinetic energy standards. What I'm referring to is the practice of using Kinetic energy when a character carries a living human at certain speeds. That's the main...

    Volume of a small island

    So, I'm trying to make a kinetic energy calc for a squid that was said to be of the size of a small island (no pic provided here due to it being a novel). So I need to know: what would the volume of said island be? Taking into count the series takes place on Europe with another name, I think...

    Questioning the validity of tier 8 DC characters

    Quoted from the Kinetic Energy Feats page "The calculated kinetic energy value is heavily inconsistent with the rest of the cast in the series. EX: Quicksilver's calculated speed cannot be used to derive kinetic energy as it heavily contradicts his established power levels. " The elephant in...

    Getting speed from KE

    According to our wiki's guidelines, getting speed from KE is not accepted. However, what if a certain amount of KE is generated by a person running? Case 1: For example, this guy called Sam charges at a wall and breaks it. The energy is, let's say, 1 ton of TNT. Can we get speed from KE? If no...

    Question about KE

    This type of example is not directly listed on the page, but implied. Would finding kinetic energy from speed be fine if a character is attacking, but they are not carrying anything and they do not have a weapon? I believe the Quicksilver example listed under the examples of where speed cannot...

    Entirely Revisiting our Kinetic Energy policy for Faster than Light speeds.

    This has been completely bothering me for years. Essentially, Our policy for Faster than Light speeds does not count, due to Relativistic Kinetic Energy. However, This is absolutely illogical to say, or to apply, in a fiction scenario for the general case. This only applies to our World, This...

    A minor thing about Storm calcs

    Shouldn't KE be mentioned on the Standard Storm calculations page? So new users can know that storms can also be calced using KE.

    Energy from vehicular impacts?

    If something gets hit by a car or a truck or something.... Well, we can find the Kinetic Energy, right? 0.5 * Mass * Velocity^2 as far as I know. But what about when you want to know how much energy something received as a result of that vehicular impact? Most things don't have the shape of a...

    Can towing be used for KE?

    Basically, is using what a vehicle is capable of towing for Kinetic Energy valid? Under the assumption said vehicle is towing, of course Personally, I don't think so, but I'm still curious

    An exception for Kinetic Energy Feats

    I have been told by in Real World profiles, we can get kinetic energy from speed no matter what, since this is the real world and physics work as in the real world. So I think this should be stated in the Kinetic Energy Feats.

    Speed and kinetic energy

    It seems that we use calculated speeds to find the attack potency of various characters such as this one and there was a discussion about upgrading Samurai Jack using the KE with the speed from the light dodging feat. But this should be considered another form of calc stacking since in fiction...

    Newtonian Kinetic Energy for Faster than Light speeds

    Why isn't Newtonian Kinetic Energy used for FTL speeds? Newtonian physics, it self, is not a set of physics that forbids FTL travel. That's solely prohibited by the Theory of Relativity. Any fictional universe where FTL is possible is basically a Newtonian universe (though we can still use...

    Calc stacking

    From what I understand, it isn't calc stacking to aquire KE from an actual speed feat/something shown directly in comparsion to it. Thing is, though; Doesn't this essentially cause the inflated stats anyway? I mean, literally every MHS+ or higher character could be buffed to insane degrees, for...

    What tier would the following calc yield

    A mass in kg of 70.8 and a speed of 2997924581 meters per second, trying to found how hard Quicksilver would hit at his highest speed, he's labelled faster than radio waves so I used the speed of a radio wave and the mass is the average weight of a man from europe.

    KE calcs

    Isn't it kinda illogical to assume one shown feat magically obeys the laws of KE physics while others that should logically scale don't?

    Porygon KE calc

    Hypothetical KE question

    One thing I learned on this site is that KE calcs don't work on lightspeeds or greater (debatably high relativistic too). But, what if a fiction said something like this: Hero: Agh! That hurt! Villain: Kinetic Energy equals one half velocity times mass. Imagine how hard that hits going a two...
