If a character, strong enough to lift a building, throws a punch at mach 50, how much force would that yield?

I know this is VERY late, but punches are calculated with the entire mass of an arm, which is approximately 6.5% of the total body weight of a person.Drag-O-Drawgon said:I'll calc the punch. KE = 1/2M*V^2
Average human hand mass = 310 grams = 0.31 KG
V = mach 50 = 17150 meters per second
KE = 1/2(0.31)*(17150)^2 = 45,588,987.5 J. which is 9-A, Small Building level
If I did this wrong, please tell me.
I'm not doing the building part because buildings can vary. a lot.
