[OOC] Nexus Of Worlds Multiverse

[ImportantNobody]

It depends on how fast she can clench the eggs out, which will be at least the speed of a bullet (likely very much faster), and with the size of an egg that's a whole lot of force behind the antimatter. What do you guys think that could do if it fired into the Earth, taking the very low estimate of bullet speed?

Well duh.POST 5000!

Gezh, I don't think any other RP had such an unbalance of OOC post to IC post.

Also how do you tell that?

Says it at the top next to the "OOC" tab.

We already calculated the power of antimatter explosions by weight of antimatter.

1kg of antimatter explodes with what, 21.5mt of force? So an average antimatter egg would likely hit with around 3 to 5mt of force. If we're talking facts here.

[yoshua171]

Unless those eggs are incredibly fucking dense.

[ImportantNobody]

Doesn't it matter what speed it's going? Or I guess antimatter is special in it's calculations of force.

Your force is special!

[Salroka]

An odd bit of logic from a non-chickener.

Yes, a densified antimatter egg would increase the yield. But antimatter is incredibly unstable unless held in a very specific type of electromagnetic field. Even were the chicken in question capable of generating such a field, how would it then transfer to the egg once it leaves the chicken? Hogwash, I say.

[ImportantNobody]

It does stand to reason that an egg filed with antimatter could weigh more then a normal egg unless it was a normal egg that she just changed to anti-matter, but she might as well fill it more dense then what normal eggs are made of.

EDIT:The field is in the shell, silly.

That said, I would still say that a 3 ounce egg could likely only contain around 15 to 20kg of densified antimatter. This is of course due to the maximum power capable of being contained within the eggshell field generator. Still, an explosion of 300 to 425mt is very significant.

[ImportantNobody]

Not planet obliterating as I hoped she could be, but yes, significant all the same. Of course she could wipe out all life on a planet with just her nuclear egg rapid firing while she was in orbit above it. That would be the quickest way due to the longer antimatter reload speed, which would be overkill but not overkill enough for worldwide destruction in a single blow.

EDIT: The power would have to be upgraded to around 100,000,000 mt to destroy most life in a single go.

Nay. If one fired a volley of several dozen nuclear eggs, each with roughly 40mt to 50mt of power, the combined salvo would be a few thousand megatons. This would be more than sufficient to wipe most sapient life from a planet, plus the fallout of such a barrage killing the remnants over the next several days.

No, one kilogram blows up with 53 megatons. It annihilates not only itself, but a kilogram of matter.

[So Boerd]

Also, not force, energy.

Same general idea, man. That much energy being unleashed exerts an equal amount of force.

Newton's Law, bitch.

[So Boerd]

Definitely not. Force is mass times acceleration. Energy is mass times velocity squared.

..Remind me never to use anything larger than demolition charges next time I carry explosives. Too much math for my taste :/

How do you get 53 megatons out of that? 21.5 x 2 = 43.

Though that's not how it works anyway. The kilogram of antimatter collides with the kilogram of matter and they both annihilate each other to produce an explosion with 21.5 megatons of force. The explosion (and calculation of force) happens after they're combined, not before.

[So Boerd]

Not terribly. Just mass times the speed of light squared.

[So Boerd]

2 times the speed of light squared is 1.79751036 × 10^17 joules. That in megatons is 43.
