I posted this in a Toho Kingdom Fantasy match.
According to DEATH BATTLE, Godzilla's atomic breath flight scaled to 90,000 tons would require a pressure of 2.2 Quintillion Newtons per square meter. Since Joules = Newtons per meter, trying to compare these values is going to be tough. I'm guessing I'd have to multiply the pressure (N/m^2) by a volume (m^3) to get N*m.
Godzilla's atomic breath is generally able to engulf tanks, and the same happened with the Tachyons' laser cannons. I'll use the dimensions of this tank for my attempt. Base*Width*Height (not including barrel length here) gives 84.767 cubic meters.
84.767 m^3 * 2.2E+18 N/m^2 = 1.865E+20 N*m = 1.865E+20 Joules.
This is assuming the pressure at the end of the beam is the same as the pressure at the beginning, which wouldn't be correct under most circumstances. However, the Tachyon laser cannons were easily strong enough to blast 60,000-ton Jr. through the air even from a distance. 60,000 tons is 2/3 of 90,000 tons, and 2/3 of what I got would be 1.24E+20 Joules . By comparison, a 1 Gigaton (1 billion tons of TNT, the threshold for Island Level) explosion would be 4.184E+18 Joules.
Someone tell me where I went wrong because I don't think this is right.
Another:
According to this, an average thunderstorm would have 17 quadrillion joules of energy just from the condensation of water alone. I've also read that this isn't the total energy in a storm, and that a supercell storm is significantly stronger than a normal thunderstorm. How much energy would it take to create one?
EDIT: Okay, according to this,

there's a difference between energy of rain fall and rain heat regarding the energy of a hurricane, but I don't know how much different that is from the above calc and I don't know how reliable this is.
