AP necesary to made a 800,000 Square Meters Island?

[Apex_Predator_GX]

Same as the title.

Since fragmentation is ambiguos, using explosion (airburst 20 psi, non-nuclear) it would be needed [(0.8/pi)^(1/2)/0.28]^3/1000 = 5.853 kilotons.

 

[Apex_Predator_GX]

Ok thank you. Your calc took into consideration the Mountains?

 

[Antoniofer]

No, its an explosion since there's no more info about the destruction, so its assumed surface wipe. Destroying the standard mountain is Low 7-B.

 

[Apex_Predator_GX]

Can you please take a look on the island and the mountains, please?

unfortunetly the gameplay is in Spanish.

 

[Antoniofer]

Is in english tho, and if the island is really ~505 m in radius those mountains aren't really mountains (its a JP game, no?).

 

[Apex_Predator_GX]

Yes it is, however you can make a even bigger island. which is at least twice bigger.

So which will be the final yield in this case?

 

[Apex_Predator_GX]

Correction the island is at leat 1km in radius

 

[Antoniofer]

In that case the energy necessary would increase 8 times, so 46.8 kilotons.

 

[Apex_Predator_GX]

Just look how small a hundred of meters instalations are compared a medium size island [[1]]

Is near the end of the page

 

[Apex_Predator_GX]

Do mind check my scaling of the island? [[1]]

@Antoniofer

Thank you for helping out.

@Apex

You should preferably add Antoniofer's calculation to your blog.
