User:Taser Lad/DC Comics: School Explosion

From The Codex

Introduction

In Deathstroke Vol 3 Issue 4, Batman and Deathstroke are fighting inside of an abandoned school. As soon as Deathstroke gets the upper hand on Batman, Harley Quinn sets off a box full of explosives which blows the school to pieces which both Batman and Deathstroke survive. Today I'll be calculating how powerful the explosion was and how much they survived of it.

Part 1: Scaling the Building

Much like another calc of this feat I will be using the average height of a Callery Pear tree as a measurement of the building.

Tree Height (Red): 134 pixels (6.5 metres)

Pink Height: 204 pixels (9.895522388059701 metres)

Pink Length: 15 pixels (0.7276119402985074 metres)

Pink Volume: 40164738.3072390035 ccm

Yellow Height: 236 pixels (11.447761194029852 metres)

Yellow Length: 172 pixels (8.343283582089553 metres)

Yellow Depth: 115 pixels (5.578358208955224 metres)

Yellow Volume: 532799691.950139999 ccm

Blue Length (The top part ignore the bottom part): 211 pixels (10.235074626865673 metres)

Volume of Cube: 1072193180.70829999 ccm

Green Height (Assuming its the same as the Yellow Line): 376 pixels (11.447761194029852 metres)

Green Length: 162 pixels (4.932280088917117 metres)

Green Depth: 164 pixels (4.8721303317352005 metres)

Green Volume: 275097845.725510001 ccm

Orange Length: 121 pixels (4.964799657625849 metres)

Volume of Cube: 122378516.668009996 ccm

Total Volume: 2042633973.3591993 ccm

Applying 80% Hollowness: 1634107178.6873593 ccm

Finding Destruction

As you can see here The explosion caused regular fragmentation so I will just use fragmentation of concrete.

Power: 9804643072.124157 Joules or 2.3433659350201141436 Tons of TNT (Large Building Level)

Okay so now we just figure out how much Batman and Slade survived.

How much they survived

Now we don't actually know how far away Batman and Slade were from the explosives but it didn't seem that far away so I'll assume around 5 metres.


Batman's Durability

Batman Height: 1.88976 metres

Batman Weight: 95.2544 Kg

Body Surface Area: 2.22 m2 / 2 = 1.11 m2

(2.3433659350201141436) / (4pi((5)^2)) = 0.0074591654406322473961

0.0074591654406322473961 * 1.11 = 0.008279673639101795 Tons of TNT (Room Level)


Slade's Durability

Slade Height: 1.93 metres

Slade Weight: 102 Kg

Body Surface Area: 2.33 m2 / 2 = 1.165 m2

(2.3433659350201141436) / (4pi((5)^2)) = 0.0074591654406322473961

0.0074591654406322473961 * 1.165 = 0.008689927738336567 (Room Level)
