KE and GPE of Floating Bloat (Serina)

[2021_Animal]

This is a 42.672 meters Floating Bloat in a picture 798 pixels long. This means, that we have approximately (42.672 m/798px)= 0.053 meters in a pixel or approximately 5.35 centimeters in one pixel.

With the front flippers, it is approximately 7.49 meters tall for 140 pixels.

For the hind flippers, on the other hand, it is approximately 6.26 meters for 117 pixels. Using these calculations, we can now estimate the center of gravity for the Floating Bloat.

Gravitational Potential Energy​

Since the Floating Bloat is described as the ecological aquatic analogue of the sauropod, we'll be using the same method Flashlight237 used to estimate the GPE of Argentinosaurus.

To find the mean Center of Gravity:

=(7.49 m+6.26 m)/2

=13.75 m/2

=~6.88 meters.

And now for the exciting part.

The Floating Bloat is said to have been larger than the largest documented Blue Whale and weighs 210 tons. By process of elimination, it cannot be the metric ton used, because the length is also given in imperial units. However, because it was said that it weighs more than the largest Blue whales, which weigh up to 199 tons documented, it cannot be the short ton either, because it yields:

(210 short tons)(0.91 metric tons/1 short ton)= Only 191.1 metric tons, which is slightly lighter than the largest Blue Whales.

So it can only be the long ton, because: (210 long tons)(1.02 long tons/1 metric ton)=~ 214.2 metric tons, significantly higher than the 199 metric ton estimate for the largest documented Blue Whales.

And for the gravity...

For the low-end, Sheather himself has stated that gravity on Serina is 2/3s that on Earth, so (9.8 m/s^2)(2/3)= ~6.53 m/s^2 for gravity on Serina.

Formula for GPE: U=mgh

For the low-end:

U=(214,200,000 kg)(6.53 m/s^2)(6.88 m)

U=~9,623,235,000 Joules (Wall+ Level)

That's just the low-end. With the high end using Earth's gravity instead...

U=(214,200,000 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)(6.88 m)

U=~14,442,220,000 Joules (Wall+ level)

So it seems like they are Wall+ tier at best. But how about their KE?

Kinetic Energy​

Since the Floating Bloat is too elongated to compare it reliably to Plesiosaurs, alongaide having shorter flippers relative to size, we'll be using Sauropods as proxies instead. They can move for a maximum of 7.2 kmh, so this means (7.2 kmh)(1 mps/3.6 kmh)= 2m/s.

Plugging in the values we previously used as mass:

KE=(1/2)m(v^2)

KE=(1/2)(214,200,000 kg)((2 m/s)^2)

KE=107,100,000 kg(4 m^2/s^2)

KE=428,400,000 Joules (Wall level)

So it seems Serina caps out at 9-B Tier at best.
