User:Taser Lad/Stardust Crusaders: Wheel of Fortune
Introduction
In Stardust Crusaders Chapter 39 (Or Chapter 152 of Jojo), Wheel of Fortune manages to make a tunnel through a cliff in a very short amount of time. I will be calculating the energy needed to do so.
Calc
First thing I decided to do was to actually look up where this fight actually took place...or at least try to find it. It was tricky but I think I found it. Ladakh. Reason I’m saying this fight took place here is because of 2 main reasons.
1: It’s very close to the Pakistan Border
2: It has cliffs that look somewhat similar to the ones seen in the manga.
Now for how much rock Wheel of Fortune destroyed.
Jotaro: 725 pixels (1.95 metres)
Shoulder Width: 197 pixels (0.5298620689655172 metres)
Panel Height: 836 pixels
Jotaro Shoulders: 35 pixels (0.5298620689655172 metres)
Wheel of Fortune: 43 pixels (5.2959 metres based on 1952 Hudson Hornet)
Distance from POV and Jotaro: (0.5298620689655172)*836)/(6*2tan(70/2)) = 77.9075080353 metres
Distance from POV and Wheel of Fortune: (5.2959*836)/(6*2tan(70/2)) = 778.675047658 metres
Distance from both: 778.675047658 - 77.9075080353 = 700.7675396227 metres
Wheel of Fortune width: 185 pixels (1.97104 metres based on 1952 Hudson Hornet as said)
Hole: 210 pixels (2.2373967567567568 metres)
Hole Radius: 1.1186983783783784 metres
Volume of Cylinder: 2755179296.83 ccm
Alright so in Ladakh most of the rocks are basalt. So basically I'll multiply the volume by 1.2
2755179296.83 x 1.2 = 3306215156.1959996 Joules or 0.79020438723613761756 Tons of TNT
Next I'll divide this by the amount of time it took for W.O.F to accomplish this feat and then divide this result by the amount of seconds. So in the anime it took about 47 seconds for him to get up while everyone’s backs were turned.
55103585936.6 / 47 = 70345003.323319137096Joules or 0.016812859302896544095 Tons of TNT
