Assuming you are thrown. It was the same till the velocity was calculated. Instead of using v²=V0²+2a∆x to calculate acceleration, I calculated the impulse generated while throwing. It was more experimental in a way that I calculated the time it needed to me to throw something. Like, suppose we want to trow a log. You pick up the log over your head, and then you rotate your arm around your elbow inorder to throw. Like initially your arm is horizontal O____| (O-object) (____ is the arm and | is the body) Then when releasing the object it is somewhat like O \ \|. If we assume maximum range condition, rotation is 45° . To calculate the time, I took readings of myself doing the rotation. It took me 10 milliseconds. (Machamps could have a different reading but I wanted some value) Since initial velocity was zero and final was 208.6m/s, change in momentum =208.6×74.8=15603.28 Now using { (average force)×∆t=momentum change} force = Change in momentum/time =15603.28/∆t In SI units, it comes out to be 1,560,328 N Which is way closer to your answer than I assumed.
In order to feel less guilty about studying practically zero physics during the holidays, I'm watching these. So much more interesting (and relevant too, since projectile motion is a topic we're covering very soon).
OMG! I finally understood physics after watching this. I was like, velocity to acceleration? You can do that? Machamp can control his punches, probably. You should do some electric pokemon ones. I don't know how, because I failed my physics badly last year, but I bet you'll make it interesting!
you really need to tutor me in physics. I really find it interesting and I actually loved chemistry. I didn't get projectiles very well and that's the only test I've failed. I've easily passed other tests. that being said, I find this pokephysics series interesting as hell.
MORE!!!!! Do: - Conkeldurr's centrifugal force when spinning his concrete pillars - Wailord's absurd size/weight ratio - Blaziken jumping a 30 story building - How much force a Pidgey requires to lift it and a Trainer (approx 90lbs)
The Official Pokemon Handbook from Gen I, says that Machamp can send an opponent to the moon. I would not want to be on the receiving end of that punch. I would obliterated in a split second.
Well damn, my head hurts now lol. This is great. And I LOVE the Garadose and Magickarp picture, I saw it in another video but didn't realize pokemon had been added to the wave, that's awesome :)
This is one of my favourite videos of yours! Another idea - it's always annoyed me that seismic toss does damage equal to the user's level. So it can only ever do at most 100 damage. If we take the definition of seismic, "relating to earthquakes or other vibrations of the earth and its crust." and "of enormous proportions or effect." It seems as though the user is tossing the victim hard enough into the ground to cause earthquake proportion vibrations - as is depicted in the anime, where Charizard would do laps of the damn moon before slapping opponents into the ground where they lay KOd in their newly formed crater. Seems powerful! The description of seismic toss in most (all?) main series games is, "The target(or some variation of the word) is thrown using the power of gravity. It inflicts damage equal to the user's level." But if the user is thrown using the power of gravity... that's uhhh not gonna cause an earthquake. If it's just the power of gravity, then the move should be called "drop". Or... "very lightly cause the opponent to lose balance and all over." You could find some formulae relating to how hard you actually need to throw someone to cause an earthquake or something... calculate what an actual seismic toss might be if you want. :) Keep up the good work.
I loved it. My psysics is awful, but now that I've shown this to my teacher, he really loves me, haha. Keep on doing this! My grades might actually get a bit better xd
Oops. I corrected it. I'm sorry. I'm not that familiar with the english Pokemon names. I'm German so learning all the other english Pokemon names, too, is very hard because there are currently 1604 Pokemon names in only these two languages plus I also have to remember the names of the cities, towns, characters and forms of the pokemon.
It would REALLY rip anyone and anything apart. It would be somehow impossible to throw something at that distance because in order to gain this much strength, a LOT of speed is required to throw that. Since Machamp's strength makes us feel like a piece of paper, grabbing the leg of a human and attempting to throw him over the horizon would just be the leg itself and the rest of the body is laid down. THE LEG IS LITERALLY RIPPED APART BECAUSE OF SUCH FORCE BY MACHAMP!
3:36 I think the Δx would mean the distance to the horizon, the total distance travelled by the target. This would drop the acceleration down to 4.9 meters per second squared (about half a g) and the force down to a little over 367 newtons.
@@drackocampusanolara4899I think my result makes sense because the results used in the video assume a distance of 1 meter. I instead used the entire distance that the target travels. The lower force and acceleration I derived is just a byproduct of me using the full distance.
@@DarkBlade37but there's no acceleration after the initial impact, that would require propulsion. The only acceleration is in the initial point, not through the full distance.
Wow! If I got thrown by a Machamp, I'd be torn apart AND be killed by g-forces AND my corpse would burn up in Earth's atmosphere from moving at sub-orbital speeds, as though I had jumped out of a space shuttle re-entering the Atmosphere from space! Yay! XD In all seriousness, awesome video!
You have just became 11.5 million times cooler in my book. This video alone has elevated your channel to my favorite channel ever, along with vihart, minutephysics, and the game theorists. Please do another one of these, or I will genetically engineer a real machamp and send its pokeball to your house. -The biggest nerd in my age group ever.
Machamps even stronger than that: According to dex entries he can release megatons of energy with a punch, and he throws 500 punches in a second, so that's 500 megatons-mountain level, but there's more, with bulk up he can boost his attack, at +6 attack he's 4x stronger, so 1 punch is 4 megatons x 500 is 2 gigatons-small island level. Edit: wow actually turns out he's even stronger than that; considering he's fighting type his megaton-level punches as the Pokedex calls them would likely be fighting type moves so they'd get a 50% boost, so he's actually 3 gigatons.
This is even more scary if you remember Pokemon X's entry "Its ruggedly developed arms can throw a flurry of 1,000 punches in a second." Let that sink in, a creature strong enough to destroy any living creature with a single punch, and can throw 1,000 in a second. Damn Nintendo, you scary.
The Pokemon world's size is probably different than Earth's, meaning that the horizon line would be different, so your equation would have to be altered to be the same size of their world. Even if you did figure out exactly how big their planet is and therefore the equation, machamp would have to be standing exactly on the sea level for it to work. Also, the pokedex's entry for machamp in is most likely metaphorical, meaning that his punches would have a lot of knockback, but definitely not as much as you described in the video. Even though you made some mistakes, I still really liked the video. (Yes, I know that this video is over three years old and he won't see it, but I just wanted to point it out)
This is an awesome video, I do have to say that, plus I love physics too! Here's something that you could do for the series, Magikarp's Platinum, Black, White, Black 2 and White 2 Pokedex entries say "A Magikarp living for many years can leap a mountain using Splash. The move remains useless, though." How would that be physically possible and what forces would it take/exert on good ol' Karp in doing so?
Hey Engineering is a great field. One of my favorite subjects in school as well. Right now im in college taking courses to transfer to Engineering school in Illinois cause thats where I live. Lots of thinking for engineering.
Yo, loved this! I'm also a huge physics nerd. I'd love to see more. I can't think of a whole lot of Pokemon off the top of my head to do physics stuff with. What about Magcargo? Many of its Pokedex entries describe it as being "roughly 18,000 degrees F." Maybe you could do something with that. Or maybe Gurdurr or Conkeldurr? And you could get some stuff out of Tyrogue's family.
Michael, at the part when you said your subject was fictional, I wanted to frown because I wanted to believe Pokemon was real, and then you crushed my dreams, but instead I smiled. Not because that sentence crushed my dreams, but because of how you said it.
That was an awesome video it was very interesting. I love all your videos man, keep up the great work! and you have to tell me where you got those posters I need them! and your next video should be on Charizard or Swampert since there my favorites!!
Your channel is really good! SPP is awesome show! My suggestion something about pidgeot flying at mach 3 speed, I think that's what pokedex says. Found your channel yesterday and needless to say I subscribed! Keep up on college and on YT!
Maybe something about really heavy flying pokemon and the stuff to do with the force exertion and strength of their wings needed to keep them up in the air like dragonite flying despite such small wings.
someone needs to do a class on pokemon anatomy >.> it'd be interesting to know just what Machamp's skeletal structure would look like with having two pairs of arms let alone how the muscles would connect without triggering a simultaneous reaction similar to moving when you move your pinky and your ring finger follows it without much voluntary response on your part
This was fun to watch but the calculations made my head hurt. I haven't taken physics since my freshman year of highschool (I'm in my 3rd year of college), so that made me faint LOL I'm here for the next one, though.
Machamp's belt restrains his power, without it he would be unbelievably powerful
He could obliterate dio with one hit and completely destroy broly with a single flick of his wrist if that thing was gone
The Machamp in the kanto manga took its belt off and somehow the characters survived
Skylar St.andry Dio, yes. Broly, def no
true, broly without his restraining items
How to EV-train your Machamp:
100 Push-Ups, 100 Sit-Ups, 100 Squats, 10km Everyday!
Well more like: 10000 push-ups, 10000 sit-ups, 10000 squats, 1000 km run everyday.
Creative!
I like it! 👍

saw it but no more creepy pastas ok

In this video I have no idea what you meant I'm in middle school, sooo that makes no sense to me
Let me guess...Its about Lavender Town.
Oh man.. My head hurts! You must be BRILLIANT in order to do this!
once you take physics this is pretty simple
Yeah, if you know the formulae they're pretty simple calculations.
This requires only basic intelligence.
SkytheSecretNinja yea...
Brilliant? If you call a slightly above average child of 14 (me, back then) brilliant, you need a lot of understanding to do.
Assuming you are thrown. It was the same till the velocity was calculated. Instead of using v²=V0²+2a∆x to calculate acceleration, I calculated the impulse generated while throwing. It was more experimental in a way that I calculated the time it needed to me to throw something. Like, suppose we want to trow a log. You pick up the log over your head, and then you rotate your arm around your elbow inorder to throw. Like initially your arm is horizontal
O____|
(O-object)
(____ is the arm and | is the body)
Then when releasing the object it is somewhat like
O
\
\|.
If we assume maximum range condition, rotation is 45° .
To calculate the time, I took readings of myself doing the rotation.
It took me 10 milliseconds.
(Machamps could have a different reading but I wanted some value)
Since initial velocity was zero and final was 208.6m/s, change in momentum
=208.6×74.8=15603.28
Now using { (average force)×∆t=momentum change}
force = Change in momentum/time
=15603.28/∆t
In SI units, it comes out to be
1,560,328 N
Which is way closer to your answer than I assumed.

Machamp's punch Vs. the Falcon punch Vs. DK's Giant punch Vs. little Mac'sKO punch Vs. the Warlock punch
Also the punch of King Elizabello.
+ethan elvis and luffys punch
saitamas punch too
Vs McDonald's punch
wait, wait, wait, back to the part were his punch is almost as powerful as an atomic bomb....
Agreed, dafuq?
That would explain his victory against goro the shokan warrior from mortal kombat go watch death battle.

Neat! This is the way I like to study physics :)
Melody Lee I'm glad to have helped!
The heights listed in the pokedex are the minimums of the pokemon's possible height.
Great Pokemon theory. I didn't expect Marchamp to be so powerful.

I'm playing Pokemon since 2007 but I never played the english versions.
oh. you can always start playing them

This gives me a new respect for Machamp.

I'm watching this so I know Machamp feats going into the next Death Battle
Wup and goro got decapitated by his megaton punches cause well MK character are no where near that level.
So Machamp can hit as hard as He-Man, Thor, or Hercules? Yikes!
machamp is 100% muscle, and also isn't made out of flesh like a human, more of a rock.
This video is so awesome! MandJTV Pokevids I'm majoring in mechanical engineering as well
