Gogeta, be honest with me here: where did you learn your physics from? Why are you still trying to bluff your way through this when it's obvious that I see through it? Do you have any idea how utterly clueless and cringey you sound like?You commit so many hilarious blunders in your post (e.g. "Force is the measure of a push or pull, gauged by newtons, which can be quantified by the potential energy required to exert said force." 😆 ), but since you are obviously incapable of quoting things properly, it would be more productive to break things down for you in a way you can hopefully understand:
1. Nothing can "contain" a force - that is literally incoherent. The energy ball may exert forces on its surroundings that range from zero to infinity (with a few simplifications) depending on the context.
2. Whether the ball is made of "raw energy" is irrelevant - the formulas still work for "pure energy" like light as well:
[b]Force = Mass x Acceleration
Rearranging some things:
Work [a type of energy transfer] = Line integral of (Force * Displacement)
Let's say that Goku contacts the energy ball and stops it with no anchor/external forces/etc. Then, with a few simplifications, we can use:
Total work (e.g. energy transfer) done by Goku = 1/2 * Mass-energy of energy ball * its velocity squared
(This is assuming that the "energy" Goku imparts on the ball is meaningful when we should care more about the force, but whatever)
So the relevant variables here are:
1. Mass of the ball.
2. The velocity of the ball.
The latter is pretty unimpressive so we look to its mass - which, before you freak out, includes its energy (e.g. "mass-energy"😉. Now if the ball followed standard mass-energy equivalences it would look like:
M = E / c^2
Where E is the energy and c is the speed of light.
Now, I'll leave this to you to try to figure out. You're welcome to either PM me or post the results of your calc's.
Circular logic. [/B]
Oh my god, you're literally so stupid that it's mind numbing. crazy
Seriously, what do you not understand here?
1. Energy and light are TWO COMPLETELY DIFFERENT THINGS. Light CARRIES energy. Energy is a vastly more abstract concept. Regardless, energy has no mass. Light does. A single photon has a mass of 0, yet a system of photons has mass, as long as the velocity is above 0.
Since you clearly have next to no knowledge on the topic, read this.
2. That leaves us with, again the fact that these energy balls have no mass, and their force is measured by their destructive output. If a ray of energy can destroy a planet, it is an energy capable of exerting a PLANETARY AMOUNT OF FORCE. I understand that the physics part might be confusing, relating mass to force, light to energy, etc. but come on dude. This is literally going from one to one. You have an energy capable of exerting a planetary amount of force, and then you have someone overpowering said energy. WHICH IS THE EQUIVALENT OF OVERPOWERING A PLANETARY AMOUNT OF FORCE.
I am ****ing baffled right now, by your level of sheer idiocy. It's literally so simple that a kindergartner could understand it.
3. Your calculations be damned, it takes around 3.3X10^33 joules to destroy the Earth, AT THE BARE MINIMUM. This is the equivalent to around a quadrillion megatons. Accounting for the force of gravity re-integrating these particles, resulting in the Earth's reformation, the amount needed could be estimated much higher.
What you don't seem to get, still, after all these posts... Is that the attacks in DB are not bombs.
Which is why I concede to your blundering ignorance. I'm not going to invest anymore time in doing what your grade school failed to. /shrug
