How much force was behind this punch ?

Goku in his CHILD SSJ FORM was able to punch super 17 HALWAY around the world. Does require over a million tons of force?

Hodor!

Where are you dbz guys coming from?

@thespiritstalker: when a man and woman have intercourse, they produce an offspring. Hopefully That offspring will grow up with free will, because of free will, that offspring will be free to like whatever he likes.

I would also like to know the answer to this. I wouldn't hold my breathe though, there will probably be more posts b******* about this being another DB thread than actual on topic ones XD

@blade_r: probably because its annoying.

if there were a superman thread every 2 seconds everyone would be equally as annoyed.

this is annoying.

Okay, so first, we have to figure out how big this planet is.

Given the fact they are both able to breath, and that the landscape looks generally earth like, ill assume they are on earth which has a radius of 6371 km measured from the equator, give or take (earth is not a perfect sphere, so there is no exact radial measure).

So, half of this distance is, 3185.5 KM, or roughly the same distance between Calgary and Montreal. Since we cant say where exactly Goku punched Super, im going to assume he punched him in Calgary.

Now, for speed comparison, Super appeared to move back to his position in about 10 seconds. The fastest flying object made by humans is the NASA X-43A Scramjet, which has a top speed of 11 000 km per hour (.035 KPS), or about mach nine. Since Super is moving a little less then half of that distance in about ten seconds, He should be moving around mach 8 or so, 9878.4 KMh per hour.

So to find out the power of Goku's punch, we compare Super's speed, mach 8, to the power output in the X-43A, which, expressed in horsepower, 164 830 821.2

So again, since Super is going slightly slower then the X-43A, we can safely assume he's doing around 119 362 369.7 horsepower.

This translates to force (119362369.7) times speed, (9878.4 KMH) divded by 375 for conversion, which equals, 3 144 291 287.58 pounds of force.

OR:

4 263 086 562 Joules

OR:

.00001019 Megatons of explosive energy.

Which means Goku hit him with less then 1/10th of the power of an 800kg Laser Guided bomb. Either DBZ characters are super lightweight, or super areodynamic.

@iusemycajonas: But this one doesn't even seem like obvious bait and/or trolling, I don't see any problem with somebody asking a legitimate question about a certain feat.

@rd189: it's on earth, and dbz fights don't happen in real time.

@imperialwizard:

You mean I did all that math for nothing? God Dammit.

Well given that you used the distance from the core of the earth to the surface as the length of the equator there is kind of a pretty big flaw in it to begin with. The earth measures 40.075km around.

@thespiritstalker: pakistan

Over 9000!!!!

Hodor

@sprior93: what ?

time to start making flash threads ever 2 secs

Ugh DBZ again.

Nop this is GT the unholy child of America

40 tons
