All concretes are not design to a unified compressive strength hence the strength of the material been it an iron man's suit or not is inversely proportional to the concretes' compressive strength
I see a hidden comment.
It seems you've been banned by an antispam bot.

Mail the supermods with the link of the comments from your profile, and tell them to un-ban you. It has happened to me at times.

Even few minutes ago, I was banned by the spam bot.

How strong can concrete actually be? His suit has been designed to destroy even the toughest of materials.
Bottom line is, momentum is the biggest factor.

You are misconceiving one thing, an AC can be created at the circuital outlet were they are needed by inverting.
And this AC happens to carry electromagnetic field around them which will certainly interfere with other processes. Hence the need for DC
Nope. I disagree.
The emf radiating from AC is too low to do such.

For it to affect a car's power control systems, it must at least be 2,000 µT.
That's for a simple car.

You are going to far, if the force applied is more than the compressive strength, or any other strength it will break.
On point.

Your quote, was based on frequency only, but we have current which is very important. At no load (open circuit, high voltage, zero current), DC is more dangerous than AC. 230V AC at no load wont kill you, but at short circuit( zero voltage, high current), DC is still more dangerous than AC.
you can read on Tesla coils.
Ah, yes. I am aware.. but only when frequency is exempted.
Still the two currents can kill, it just depends on how much is put out.

About the Strength vs Weight, weight is indeed the answer.
The physics to breaking with your fists is;
One key to understanding brick breaking is a basic principle of motion: The more momentum an object has, the more force it can generate. When it hit the brick, [karateka Ron] McNair's hand had reached a speed of 11 meters per second (24 miles per hour). At this speed, his hand exerted a whopping force of 3,000 Newton's -or 675 pounds-on the concrete.

A slab of concrete could likely support the weight of a few people weighing a total of 675 pounds (306 kilograms). But apply that amount of force concentrated into an area as small as a fist and the concrete slab will break.
Hulk616 is right here.
qwertyboss, you said work done. It is not so.
Workdone is Force x Distance.

AC is safer?
Hope you are not mistaking DC for AC because with my engineering background I can assured you that AC is nothing close to been safe compared to DC
Hulk616
About the AC vs DC, they are both dangerous but it would take less AC to kill than DC.
"A.C. is said to be four to five times more dangerous than D.C. For one thing, A.C. causes more severe muscular contractions..... The frequency of the AC has a lot to do with the effect on the human body. Unfortunately, 60 cycles is in the most harmful range. At this frequency, as little as 25 volts can kill."

It seems like you didn't get the catch,
I said breaking concrete is not an indicator of weight but strength.
The comparison is not weight to strength but breaking concrete to strength and weight

Yes, the mini FUSION reactor, and its possible. because he used palladium which helps to cold the temperature of the reactor.

Also remember that, in a nuclear power plant, the nuclear fission reactor is used to generate heat which is used to boil the water, that produces high pressure streams used to turn/rotate the turbines connected to a generator.

But for iron man, the arc reactor produces electrons running a circular path to produce electromagnetic field which result to electricity. so iron man arc reactor is safer.
Ah, yes. I remember the controversial cold fusion experiments of 1989.

Due to flaws in the experiment, it was eventually stopped. It featured trying to create nuclear fusion at room temp, instead of the usual heat associated with it.
Palladium was one of the main elements used.

If we are speaking in a probable futuristic manner, I agree to this.

They don't wear protective wear when near a 330kV transformer, they only wear when switching on or off circuit breakers.
Correct.


And prolonged exposure to transformer radiation wont kill you, because the frequency is still 50Hz. angry
Yes, I made a mistake on that one. 50HZ isn't enough to kill you, but...
"Most studies that have taken place are addressing magnetic fields which are emitted from power lines, transformers and other sources. Studies have linked the low-frequency radiation with miscarriages, leukemia, skin cancer, multiple sclerosis, etc." Source
Nuclear fusion reactor will be safe because you can control the radiation level and in crisis it implode not explode. angry
I must admit, that's some high level shii right there bruv grin.
It is safer than fission and it doesn't explode. Pull the plug on fusion, and it stops. Pull the plug on fission, and it keeps fissioning.

As long as a nuclear reactor is vacuum sealed, there wouldn't be a problem. If hydrogen comes into contact with it, it would eventually explode like a hydrogen bomb. I agree with your point.


the amount of power needed to power the electronics is small and safe. but for the weaponry it is huge, that why the massive chest blast is directly from the main source, which removes the need of huge amount of electricity and radiation travel around his body. angry
I get your point, but Stark didn't use the chest blast all the time.
If it was the case as you stated, he would be blasting frequently to relieve himself of the power. That is an unstable situation.

I believe perfected nuclear fusion wouldn't be unstable.


Nuclear energy has been successfully convert to electricity which is safer form for human.
Yes, but aside that, nuclear energy (not radiation) has been proven to be safer than working in an office.
"Nuclear energy is as safe or safer than any other form of energy available. In fact, recent studies have shown that it is safer to work in a nuclear power plant than an office."
It's only the radiation aspect that we have to tackle.


It has been tested, the cube made of the metal was heated to very high temperature, and people picked it and held it for minutes.
Wow, that's mad. I'll look at that later.


Iron man suit is also a robot on its own, so the exoskeletons just have to copy the movements of its user.
Agreed.

So far, these are the problems surrounding the further research on nuclear fusion;
Fusion reactors have other serious problems that also afflict today's fission reactors, including neutron radiation damage and radioactive waste, potential tritium release, the burden on coolant resources, outsize operating costs, and increased risks of nuclear weapons proliferation.

Hulk616, another thing is that the arc reactor is basically a mini nuclear power plant.. on his chest!
TV/MoviesRe: Can Iron Man's Suits Be Possible In Real Life? by DriggityDre: 7:09pm On May 17, 2020
qwertyboss:
But the suit is not heavy, because it is made up of alloys which practically makes it lighter. Alloys like duralumin are very strong, tough and lite...
Yes, you have a point on alloys; but Iron Man's suit has withstood powerful blows and heavy firepower from villains. From blasts to grenades to super strength.
No known alloy can able to withstand that much.

To create something that strong but light, will pose a major problem.

Even in the movies, his suit is powered by an arc reactor. That is a mini nuclear power plant!
TV/MoviesRe: Can Iron Man's Suits Be Possible In Real Life? by DriggityDre: 7:00pm On May 17, 2020
qwertyboss:
I don't think nuclear energy is the option to power a suit like that...
If modern electric cars can be powered by a battery then that suit can certainly be powered by a battery
A car is simply a combustion engine with axle and wheels. You can't compare simple technology like a car, to futuristic weapon tech.
They are faaaar apart, in terms of energy, structure and control systems. The latter is far more complex by miles.

The Audi e-tron electric car has the largest battery output so far. It puts out 95 Kwh.
An average step-down transformer beats that, with 264Kwh.

I was quoted to have said that every Nigerian that wants to donate should please donate in kind, not in cash.
By this, I mean that if you are giving N100m, go to a rice mill, buy at market price, then carry the rice to the authorities or better still, take it directly to the needy.

But if you give a cash donation, they would use the money as contract and purchase things four times their cost.
I agree.
Aside awarding expensive contracts, the funds could be embezzled.

Very popular in this country.

My issue now is raising awareness. I quoted all the mods and the owner of the site but nothing was done. They didnt take down the bat cave thread from the front page. Ishilove who has some access to the mods, ignored this thread at first. Only to come and derail when she found you bumping this thread. Nairaland and Nigerians can be frustrating at times.
I get you. You aren't the only one.

Many minds have kept mute, many have left. I know a few still lingering around tho. But they hardly speak.
It's a lost cause.
Se.un himself has discovered it's a lost cause. One of the reasons, he doesn't reply numerous mentions, aside the obvious.

Trying to educate Nigerians nowadays, only attract insults and additional display of more ignorance, which are usually accompanied by likes and shares, or another show of support.
A case of conformity to ignorance.
I said it before, I've stopped trying.

I only do what I can.

People that works with transformers that steps up voltage to 330kV and current of over 6000A dont die in milliseconds. Again, radiations from electronics devices are not that harmful. angry
The energy will be massive, but when fusion reactor start to exist that won't be a problem. angry
First of, those people you speak of, still put on protective equipment. Even if you don't die the 1st time, prolonged exposure to any form of radiation is unsafe. Also, you can't compare a 330KV transformer to a suit of that caliber.
Transformers are like AA batteries when compared. As you said, the only hope to power a suit like Stark's, is with nuclear energy. The radiation resulting from that, will kill you unless you are protected. No contest.
I mean, can you imagine the amount of power flowing through that suit; [img]https://media1./images/94a72f8bc726ab28a0b75dfdc8bf6914/tenor.gif?itemid=14686233[/img]

I said later, there are materials that absorb heat internally. E.g. there is a metal that NASA uses on space shuttle that absorb heat and if you touch the outside you would feel just little amount of heat. Since the heat is internal, it can converted to another form of energy. angry
Easy to say, but not to implement. So far, we haven't been able to deal with this kind of energy. The closest we've gotten is nuclear energy, and we still haven't found a way to convert that to a safer form for the human body.
This metal you speak of, hasn't still been tested in direct contact with human skin. It's on a shuttle. We can only touch it when it has landed.
It might be boiling hot in space, but can cool faster before getting to earth. We haven't even known if it can withstand that amount of energy, or even durability.

Maybe time will tell. The only exoskeletons so far, can only do the simple work humans are known for.
Not all activities, it's still limited sef.

User 2:
@op. Make sure you go to a nearby hospital to begin your rabies vaccine shots. If they ask why, tell them that you were exposed to bats in the cave. A word is enough for the wise
User 3:
