Water Bear Durability

[Niarobi_(Formerly_Hadou)]

Water Bears can survive pressures up to 6 times greater than the pressure of the deepest parts of the ocean. In the Composite Organism threads, I calculated that to be around 72,850 tons per square meter. If this thing can grow to be a millimeter, it could withstand 72.85 tons of pressure. That's City-Block level.

I don't think that there will be any upgrade. To be honest, City Block level is an exaggeration! Also, this feat is done via cryptobiosis.

Offtopic: Also, the Water Bear profile is poorly made.

 

[Niarobi_(Formerly_Hadou)]

It's not an exaggeration. It's him being able to survive six times the pressure than that which is at the lowest points in the ocean, and so he can survive what I just showed. Even if it's done with cryptobiosis, when are they not doing that?

And it'll be okay.

 

[Skalt711]

Then, how are you even calcing durability from pressure???

 

[Niarobi_(Formerly_Hadou)]

They can survive 72,850 tons of pressure per square meter, and they are one square millimeter. This means they can withstand 72.85 tons of pressure.

 

[Skalt711]

Uh... 72.85 tons of pressure =/= 72.85 tons of TNT...

Offtopic: Anyways, what about remaking the Water Bear profile?

 

[Primaris_Brian]

1 square meter = 1000000 square millimeter

why 1000000? because 1 square meter is 1000 times longer and 1000 times wider than 1 square millimeter, so 1000 x 1000 = 1000000.

 

[Skalt711]

I know...

 

[Primaris_Brian]

OP dont know and use wrong math.

 

[Niarobi_(Formerly_Hadou)]

Oh, forgive me. Then .0072 tons. That's Room level.

 

[Unimportantalt]

Room level pressure durability seems ok. i also believe the heat resistance can be calculated

 

[Niarobi_(Formerly_Hadou)]

It's not very impressive heat resistance.

 

[Unimportantalt]

u calculated it? also, 200c is higher than most animals can endure. a human or dog would get their insides cooked by that

 

[Niarobi_(Formerly_Hadou)]

I didn't calculate it, but I'm sure it isn't above Wall level.

 

[Unimportantalt]

thats fine
