How can I calculate this?

Basically this is the result of a "Sonic Scream" which (also) diverted a typhoon away from Japan

I tried to scale the explosion by the diameter of the Earth, but not if it is the correct way

And I was wondering if someone could explain me how to do it, please.

 

[Alpha149]

I think enough time has passed for me to bump this thread...

 

[Alpha149]

I mean, I scaled the "air blast radius" through the diameter of Earth, and only the base (ignoring all the pillar / cylinder above) gave a result of 12270000 Megatons (which in our scale is Country Level)

You should probably ask one of the calc group members though they are rather busy right now with the DB threads.

you could probably use gravitational potential energy

E = GMm ((1-r2) - (1-r1))

if u know the mass of the material raised then again, it is continuous, so you might wanna use it in chunks or even integrate it over the distance

 

[Alpha149]

While I have some knowledge of the calculations, it is the first time I see this formula, could you explain me what is each letter (I guess the G = Gravity and M = Mass) and as applied to calculate the "sonic explosion/scream" ?

I say this because perhaps you misunderstood the feat, she diverted away the typhoon from Japan, but not sent it into space (Or at least it is implied that the typhoon wasn't launched into outer space, was only launched away from Japan...)

Ok, now I question definitively if she sent it into space or not...

oh i see

well, i cudnt find mass of typhoon, but i found the mass of a hurricane, maybe you could use this, and scale how far away it was sent in some net time, then use kinetic energy to find the value

If you mean "E = m*g*h" gave me 1468050328283811253498,44 J (that's Large Island Level+)

nah, i mean like how far away does she push it? and how much time has elapsed in that event, using this, we can find velocity

and using E = 0.5M(V^2), we can find kinetic energy, if it was oushed back, then again, it was coming to japan, so adding to our first result, the incoming kinetic energy of the storm will give total energy

Announceme the arrival of Typhoon: http://www.**********.com/to-love-ru/14/5

Announcement of the departure: http://www.**********.com/to-love-ru/14/17

(All of the medium are attempts to push it away)

 

[The_Living_Tribunal1]

for that, you can scale the distance from the x to the point where one of the cicles first touch japan (assuming the feat hapened at the tip of japan). then u need the time, what is the time between this and the feat? after getting these things, divde the distance by the time- that gives initial kinetic energy


so total energy = energy needed to counter the kinetic energy + final kinetic energy of the typhoon outwards


oh also, btw i got mass ogf hurricane as 4.9*10^10 kg, u cud use the same for a typhoon i think

Thank you for the help with the calculation (my results were: Low End = 2,887*10^15 J; High = 7,642*10^20 J ) and I'm also doing other calculations to start creating profiles for the characters in this series

 

[The_Living_Tribunal1]

ok

 

[Alpha149]

Speaking of that, it is reasonable to get two very different results? (For the typhoon only I used a speed of 49.5 km/h, when she moved it I use two speeds (the speed of sound for low end (sonic scream) and a timeframe of 5 seconds (the typhoon was moved in a short timeframe))

well, for total energy

total energy = energy needed to counter initial kinetic energy + final kinetic energy, so, using your given speeds (low end i assume), i get approximately what you got for your low end

now keep in mind, that you will have to decide whether high end of more reasonable than low end or the other way around

 

[Alpha149]

Considering that her attack matched an attack that would destroy her town/city (varies with translations) I'll say that the low end is more reasonable

 

[The_Living_Tribunal1]

ok, then it all fits well with low end
