Official Calculations Discussion Thread

How does liquid compression work? Are there any values for different liquid like blood or water?
 
How do we calculate the amount of radiation one has in their body over time?

Example: Guy stays on the surface of the Sun for hundreds of millions of years, I'm wondering if this can translate to energy stored or if it can show how great their resistance to radiation is.
 
Is there a method for calculating uprooting trees (or really anything with roots)? One that can be extrapolated to fictional comically large trees? Because uprooting them feels like it should be a very impressive feat, but I haven't seen any formula for it around.

Yeah I don't know a formula for it, but a method I think could be used is finding the roots size if they're shown adding that to the tree's trunk mass and then just calcing how fast it was pulled to get ke.

I think that'd still be far inferior to the result of ripping it out by accounting for tensile strength and what-not. Normally that's okay tho, but there's some cases where trees are uprooted off-screen.
 

About the via an explosion method on constellations, what does it mean? And how do you calculate/replicate that?

Can't you instead use the energy of one exploding star and just multiply that by how many stars exploded?
 
QUESTION:
In a cloud splitting feat (in a manga), you can see the end of the split (i.e. the split is a triangular shape), so the split obviously slowed down to the point where it stopped, i.e. the speed of the split is not the same throughout the area.
How could I find that?

No, you need to take into account the distance between the stars and rely on inverse-square law to find the power at the epicenter determined by how much power is left at the far edge.

Like this right?
Via using explosion method

0.6 x G(M^2)/R = 0.6 x (6.67 x 10^-11) x (1.9888x10^30)^2/(6.955x10^8) x 10 (10 stars shown destroyed) = 2.2759471^42 joules

Distance between stars = 5 light years (47303653885597800m)

Distance between 10 stars = 47303653885597800 x 10 = 473036540000000000m

473036540000000000/2 = 236518270000000000m

(2.2759471^42) x 4(π) x (2.3651827×10^17)/(6.955x10^8))^2 = 1.8330596e+49 (183305.96 Foe)

I see why I got different results now 🙉

Something somewhere the brackets got screwed up, because that's even lower than 4-A despite having a larger explosive radius. 🙉🙉🙉

Also, normally speaking we just assume the target body at the edge being destroyed is the Sun for the sake of a lowball.

Distance between one star being 5 light years or 4.73e+16 meters... times ten equals 4.73e+17 meters.

The Inverse-square formula works out like this:

4*U*(Er/Br)^2

U is the GBE of the Sun, Er is the Explosive Radius and Br is the radius of the body blown up at the edge.

U= 5.693e+41 joules

Er= (4.73e+17 / 2) = 2.365e+17 meters

Br= 6.957e+8 meters

Energy: 4 * 5.693e+41 * (2.365e+17/6.957e+8)^2 = 2.6315975e+59 J or 2.6316 petaFoe (4-A)

Do you not need to account the other 10 stars that got destroyed?

2.6316 petaFoe (4-A)
Wait... Petafoe don't even exist in the tiering 👁️

How would one go about calculating the energy required to grow something like a tree very quickly?
 
How can I calculate this feat?
Try to find the dimensions of that block if there are any other shots of it and work out the volume by pixel scaling and using a triangular prism as the shape then use the destruction value for melting concrete which is 4814.5 Joules per cm^3

I calculated the volume, but I didn't quite understand the triangle thing.

The volume of a triangular prism is the area of the triangular face multiplied by the depth of the prism, this would get you roughly the volume of concrete that was melted through

I couldn't do the calculation. I will create a calculation request for this.

Anyway, how can I calculate these feats?

Feat 1
Feat 2
Feat 3
 
Question, what would your thoughts be on utilizing feats where it is stated in verse that they do not have to be obvious or visually clear to have devastating power?
 
What are you trying to calculate out of that? Rate of the spread of darkness could constitute speed, I suppose?
 
I mean, energy needed to cover an area until its completely dark
Also spreading darkness through a large area would be attack speed no?
 
Could be speed. I don't think generating darkness can be used for any AP calc, can't imagine what you'd do for it. Suppose you might try to argue it's removing the energy of the light in the given area but that could be very tenuous depending on the means of creating darkness. If you did approach that route, it's a complicated calculation I don't have on me at the moment, but could dig it up if there's literally nothing better for your given verse and you feel like taking that shot.
