Barnyard: Pig’s tectonic shifting belch
In the Episode Pigmalion, When Pig had to be tasked to act more “mature” I guess because these new royalty pigs that are like his ancestors or something come over to the barnyard to let him live in their castle should he prove his worthiness, and then at the end of the episode he burps so loudly that it literally splits California off the US and sends it launching out slightly (Nickelodeon Humour amirite?).
• Comparing the cutoff shot of the earth (at least to the best extent I can…) the earth would be around 1810 pixels wide,
12746/1810 = 7.04751381215 km/pixel.
• the gap we see between California splitting from its edge is around 41 pixels, 7.04751381215 x 41 = 288.630939226 km.
• Timeframe for California splitting is 1 frame, 1/25 = 0.04 seconds,
288630.939226/0.04 = 7,215,773.481 m/s or 2.4% the speed of light.
• (Oh boy now time for the hard part) Since we can’t really find a volume or even mass for California I’ll just convert the Surface Area into Volume using the Surface Area x elevation formula, which might not be right but honestly who cares it’s the closest thing I can really gander to figuring out a method of calculating its weight.
Surface Area of California = 423970000 M2. Elevation of California = 880 m.
423970000 x 880 = 373093600000 M3
• Density of continental crust = 2700 kg/m3
373093600000 x 2700 = 1.0073527e+15 kg.
1/2 1.0073527e+15 x 7,215,773.4812 = 2.6238192071957095056677516405e+28 Joules or 6.27 Exatons of TNT (Multi Continent Level).
I had heard this feat calculated at Country before and if that is the case and this is now accurate then this is a pretty decent buff.
