Chapter 849 A punch comparable to a nuclear bomb

"How much energy does the Angris meteorite produce when it hits a planet?" Eve was suddenly curious about the topic of the meteorite hitting a planet.

"That's the question..."

Liu pushed his glasses and analyzed: "This issue needs to be discussed separately. When a meteorite hits a planet, it is first kinetic energy, and then hits the ground. An explosion may occur.

"If you want to calculate the energy of the explosion, it will be more troublesome, and kinetic energy will be relatively easier to calculate.

"And, in fact, in terms of destructive power, the destructive power of one-way kinetic energy is far higher than that of explosions."

Someone asked in confusion: "The power of the explosion is less than the kinetic energy? Isn't it?"

After thinking for a while, Liu Liu explained: "In fact, in many people's impression, there is an illusion that subconsciously thinks that the explosion is very terrible.

"But in fact, the destructive power of the explosion is actually very average compared to the one-way kinetic energy.

"It's easy to understand for an example, just take a bullet as an example.

"The destructive power of the bullet after it is released from the barrel comes from the gunpowder in the shell.

"So, if we pour out the gunpowder from the eggshell and make a firecracker, what do you think will be powerful?"

This example is indeed very easy to understand. If the tiny powder in the shell is made into a firecracker, it will explode directly in your hand and will not be too powerful.

Da Liu continued, "This is easy to understand, right? Using a bullet's gunpowder as a firecracker, the most destructive power is the level of skin breaking.

"However, such a small amount of gunpowder, placed in a bullet, converts energy into kinetic energy when exploded, and shoots the warhead, but it can penetrate the hardest skull.

"From this point, we can see that the destructive power of kinetic energy is stronger than that of explosions.

"In fact, the destructive power of the explosion is mostly reflected in the shock wave. In fact, it is still the destructive power of the kinetic energy, but it is just the diffuse shock wave. The further the range, the less damage it causes."

The comparison of destructive power between firecrackers and bullets can indeed clearly distinguish the difference between the destructive power of kinetic energy and the explosion.

Eve pointed his chin with his finger and said thoughtfully: "That is true that the destructive power of kinetic energy is indeed stronger. No wonder the asteroid with a diameter of ten kilometers hit the earth and destroyed the dinosaurs."

Liu typed out a set of data in his notebook, then did some calculations, and said, "As for the energy of the Angris meteorite hitting the beast planet...

"Let's calculate the kinetic energy of this meteorite when it hits.

"Based on the exploration and analysis of craters, we can roughly draw a conclusion that the diameter of the Angris meteorite is about three to five kilometers...

"Combining the density of magnetite and part of the rock, we can calculate an approximate mass.

"For the sake of operational convenience, we take an integer, the mass of the Angris meteorite, 30 billion tons.

“And then the speed of the meteorite falling.

"The meteorites on Earth fall at about 20 km/s to 70 km/s.

"From the degree of breaking of meteorite fragments in Angris Crater, we can speculate that the impact speed of this meteorite should be relatively low.

"So, we assume that the velocity of the Angris meteorite impact is 20 km/s, and then calculate the kinetic energy at the time of impact.

"The final answer is 6×10^21 Joule.

"The power of 6 by 10 is 60 trillion kjoule, which converts higher units, 600,000 kjoule."

Fang Yuan couldn't help but take a deep breath when he heard this number.

600,000 KJoe, which is a terrifying order of magnitude.

Eve couldn't help but start to click her finger: "Captain's Dark Matter Dragon Fist can hit 115 trillion joules, then..."

She wanted to calculate the difference, and then found that the value was too large and she couldn't figure it out at once.

Fang Yuan quickly coughed and said, "What, let's calculate the power of the little boy."

The difference in numbers is too big, so it is difficult to compare.

After all, an asteroid with a diameter of five kilometers has a mass of 30 billion tons, and the mass of light is not comparable to that of humans.

However, if it is the nuclear bomb called "Little Boy", it would be a bit comparable.

The nuclear bomb called "Little Boy" in the last century was thrown on an island, almost ending a war.

Chen Likun was particularly interested in this kind of data analysis and quickly took over the conversation and said, "I remember the data of this nuclear bomb very clearly.

"The little boy has 15,000 equivalents, converted into joules, which is 63×10^12 joules, which is 63 trillion."

Fang Yuan was a little satisfied when he heard this value and a smile appeared on his face.

Eve started to click her finger again to calculate: "The little boy with 63 trillion kappa, the power of the captain's Dark Matter Dragon Fist is 115 trillion kappa...

"Hey, it's almost the same. Captain, you can do it, and you can shoot two nuclear bombs with one punch."

From a numerical perspective, the power of Fang Yuan's punch is indeed twice the energy generated by the explosion of the "little boy".

However, the problems of kinetic energy destructive power and explosive destructive power still exist.

The Dark Matter Dragon Fist is a one-way kinetic energy power, while the nuclear bomb explosion is a spreading power from all directions.

The difference between the two can indeed be compared with firecrackers and bullets.

Therefore, from the perspective of destructive power alone, the destructive power of the 115 trillion-yuan dark matter dragon fist at one point is far greater than that of the "little boy".

However, the destructive power coverage of the Dark Matter Dragon Fist is relatively small.

Therefore, if used to deal with a tide-like star beast group, it is actually a nuclear bomb like the "little boy" that is more effective, and the Dark Matter Dragon Fist is more suitable for killing high-level star beasts.

Fang Yuan said with a serious expression: "It's not enough to shoot twice the power of a nuclear bomb with one punch. What else do I want to do with the General Staff?"

The head of the assessment team said expressionlessly: "'Little Boy' is already a fission bomb from the last century, with an equivalent of only 15,000 tons. Nowadays, the nuclear weapons commonly used by humans are hydrogen bombs, most of which are above 500,000 tons. This comparison is not enough."

Eve helped argue: "No. How can the destructive power of kinetic energy be compared with the destructive power of the explosion? The destructive power of firecrackers and bullets is ten times worse, right?"
