[Lookism] Lifting Strength Upscale

1
0
Hello, so I see that the lifting strength of the Lookism verse is around class 25 which is very underwhelming compared to what it actually should be. I've also taken a look at another Vin Jin tree calculation, however, that was an extreme lowball, so with this I'm proposing an upscale of the verse using a more accurate method.

The feat:
https://ibb.co/jRcjLTM (Vin Jin uprooting trees, image wouldn't load in this post for some reason)

Vin Jin = 179cm, 39 pixels1 pixel = 4.58974358974cm

Uprooted a tree with diameter 49 pixels so its log diameter is about 225cm (2.25m)

We can approximate the tree volume using the DBH and the height. we'll assume the tree is a cylinder, which is a common approximation.

Volume = H x pi x (DBH/2)^2 https://www.engineeringtoolbox.com/wood-density-d_40.html it seems to be a simple oak tree so about 750kg/m^3 density

Estimate Tree Height (H): Using the rough average constant of 10
H≈10×DBH
𝐻≈10×2.25
𝐻≈22.5meters
So volume = 89.48m^3
Mass = density x volume mass = 67110kg

Tree root = 66 pixels = 302.923076923cm

Thus to fully uproot the tree he had to lift the tree and the roots

https://www.deepdale-trees.co.uk/trees/technical-info.html

Since its a fictional tree obviously its way bigger than the trees we have, the biggest I could find data on (which is still smaller than the tree we have here, so its a safe lowball), is about 10000kgs. Thus the total mass would be 67110kg+10000kg = 77110kg

Since the trees were fully uprooted we can use formula

E = mgh
with h = minimum of the root's length (3.0292307692m)
E = 77100x9.81x3.0292307692E = 2291161.72152 J (2.29x10^6 J)

Lifting strength: Class K


In case someone has contentions with the height used, we can even use half of the original, which would still be 1.145x10^6 J, Lifting strength Class K.



Thus, the upscale: lifting strength of the high-tiers in the verse of Lookism to Class K.
