Fallout tech is based on over 130 years of pseudoscience from a genre known to play it lose with the very science it idolizes, and when you play it loose with physics you get stuff like a gram of nutronium exploding faster than an atomic bomb over an area so small it wouldn’t even break the average wooden table but having a boiling point so low that in earth like pressures it wouldn’t freeze even at absolute zero (meaning the atoms have literally stopped moving around).

@trishaheart718
@trishaheart718 7 лет назад
This was what I was thinking as well. Then I realized that while we could knock off a portion of the energy needed by assuming there is less mass of the behemoth left to melt when it dies and that it's over all body tempeture is raised it would still need to transfer the vast majority of the final energy in one shot otherwise the target would vaporize, melt, or have other really nasty things happen long before he could gooify.

Fun fact there is a fifth state of matter called Bose-Einstein condensate, its when matter gets in a really low temp and begins to get magnetic properties, some MRI equipments use them to produce the magnetic fields for doing the imaging.
@Tinyvalkyrie410
@Tinyvalkyrie410 5 лет назад
I have never heard of an MRI using Bose-Einstein condensates, they pretty much exclusively use superconductors, which have some similar properties but are fundamentally different. As to whether or not condensates are a state of matter is basically a semantic debate. Another cool potential state is superfluid, and some people consider many other cool things to be states as well, such as glass and quantum hall state. My favorite new potential state of matter is definitely photonic matter, which is when photons behave as if they have mass. Super neat!

Tiny Valkyrie if I remember correctly glass is called a “collide” I read this in an elementary science book so I don’t know, but the book also said that lead was a collide. According to the book a collide is like halfway between a solid and a liquid, but since they flow (glass over decades and lead over centuries) they are technically collides.

You skipped a step: That's not hydrogen plasma it's shooting, as hydrogen plasma appears pink, not green. From my research, it appears that would have to be either mercury plasma or neon-xenon-krypton plasma, but note that the latter also has orange at the edges of the plasma which the plasma shots in Fallout seem to be lacking.

My favorite weapon in Fallout 4 is a plasma shotgun with the legendary mod. Each plasma pellet deals a separate explosive redial damage which shreds through most enemies (and allies so be careful). It also leaves a very satisfying explosive effect when you hit water.

its fun.... but some of your numbers are way off. Typical us home produces 20 tons of CO2 per year.... which is about the same energy as (all part numbers) same number of tons of TNT.... not 3/4 ton in 300 yrs! Vaporizing ppl basically is boiling the water. Ppl weigh 100kg..... boiling 100kg of water is not the energy used by the us home in 273 years. Some of these numbers are off by a few orders of magnitude. I could go on about laser rifles not having recoil....photons DO have momentum.... its a relativistic thing. Even if they didnt you would still get a recoil from the heated air. But generally quite a fun rant :-)

This is all assuming that it's one-shoting everything, when reality you're pumping fusion cell after fusion cell into that behemoth before it changes it's state of matter. So if you take that into consideration it's probably a lot less energy per shot.

Your math is wrong; or more specifically, you've applied it incorrectly. You are not achieving complete 100% vaporization of the human body, or what the figures were for. You are not turning the solids and liquids of a body into a gas (vapor). Instead, you are breaking just enough molecular bonds to turn people into a steamy puddle of goo; which takes much much less energy. Basically if you put maybe a stick of dynamite into a well armored container with a body (basically containing the explosive force just to the body, not letting any of it escape into the environment: efficiency), you can achieve the steamy puddle you are looking for.

because I'm a nerd, I'm slowly making my own superhero comic universe, and one of my heroes has robotic arms that shoot plasma, and to get around how this is possible I made it so that it was an alien tech genius that gave her the plasma-shooting arms, but I haven't thought in depth about how this would affect her body or anything she shoots, so I really appreciate that this video exists to tell me about the weaponry potential of plasma guns

@Alizudo

I can't remember which it was, but that was a real thing they did to a rifle. Its recoil was so light it made the soldiers uncomfortable, so they gave it recoil on purpose.
@vladimirsilver2633
@vladimirsilver2633 Месяц назад
Practical laser weapons are very loud and do have recoil. Gas dynamic lasers get energy from chemical combustion. The exhaust gas is vented causing recoil. No electricity is used. As for sound, continuous lasers are a really stupid idea for a weapon. Nanosecond pulsed lasers cause micro plasma detonations on target which is loud same as a normal gun. The lenses on lasers are also stupid. Plasma lenses will not be broken by high intensity pulses.

This subject needs to be revisited, but for the Plasma Gun of DOOM(1993, II, 64, 3, 2016, and Eternal). Just all of DOOM Plasma Guns. You've already done the BFG 9000 so not that (unless you feel like including an update on it with something new you find). I also have a couple recommendations for a starting point: Dense Plasma Focus, and The Safire Project. They are both laboratory experiments involving studies of plasma structures. The Safire Project being a sort of proof, laboratory evidence, of the validity of Electric Sun Model (which serves as an older alternative to the Standard Model of the Sun) as well as the next big step in Plasma based Fusion power. The Dense Plasma Focus being an earlier experiment in an effort to successfully produce a fusion reaction with plasma (a sort of very early precursor to The Safire Project) which succeeded in producing what is called a Plasmoid.
@ayrtonottoni6358
@ayrtonottoni6358 8 лет назад
A slight problem I noticed in the video. Now, I'm not a scientist, so I don't know if this has changes anything, but the plasma usually doesn't kill an enemy in a single shot, therefor the heat of each plasma shot would not need to be that hot
@karimluk1998
@karimluk1998 8 лет назад
use kinetic weapon to hit 99percent health and 1 shot plasma will still melt the body so even using in game sense its max power output still need to be as high as he mentioned. BTW even if the heat is built up, all organ will be burnt before melting.

Well you see, Akatosh the dragon God of time blessed horses to be the counter to the dragons but after Bosefus the horse God died fighting a sweetroll in the great Leyawiin feast they gave up the sacred oath to Akatosh. He then cursed them so that they could never ascend to the Horse Heaven. This is why they stick to the sides of mountains. It's because Horse Heaven constantly repels them down with 4,000 newtons of force.

*To ShoddyCast* Since your character has to use several shots to kill a super mutant behemoth using a plasma rifle you would need to take an average across say 10 plus minimum behemoths to get an average amount of shots to kill then divide the requirements by that number. If it takes 20 rounds or more to kill a behemoth that definitely lowers the requirements by a lot.

Except that plasma weaponry doesn't usually kills most foes at the first shot. The only real explanation to the goofycation, (it is not vaporazing), it's that, when the victim it's close to dying, instead of transfering heat, the plasma can initiate a chain reaction that turns the rest of the body into more plasma, which would explain why the nearby area remains unnafected.
@animussilica2606
@animussilica2606 7 лет назад
I guess "plasma" that is used as a projectile in Fallout is not a plasma we used to see in real life. It is more akin to some kind of exotic matter contained in a force field that ruptures upon contact, making weird_shit within come into physical reaction with the obstacle, breaking bonds between elemental particles and sometimes triggering chain reactions that explosivley reduce target to the pool of unedintifiable waste. Sometimes it leads to transmutation of target's element composition, thats why you find nuclear materials on desintergrated targets.
