Chapter 1367 This is not a railgun

At first glance, it seems not that simple to make a person fly by himself.

But if combined with new materials and biological brains, it might be possible.

"Of course, energy is also needed..."

Jenny added something.

"What does this mean?"

Catherine asked doubtfully.

"It's energy! You can't expect your wings to be perpetual motion machines, right? But so far, the methods we have used have too few ways to obtain energy for flight."

indeed.

"But if we use another way to supply energy, I think it's feasible."

"What did you say?"

It will definitely not work if you use a battery pack or an external power supply.

In that case, there is no need for the biological appearance, just learn from the Angry Raven and add a few engines and it will be done.

"I mean...using blood for energy."

Jenny said so.

"blood……?"

Catherine looked at Jenny.

"Yes, the functional system of our human body is actually very powerful. If we can supply energy in the same way as the human body, the effect will be extraordinary... Of course, this is a large-scale energy supply design, although the mimic material on your body can simulate

It feels similar to skin, but in fact, this substance has no cellular structure. Because there is no cellular structure, it is difficult for us to adopt large-scale blood functions... Let me think about it, if we can solve this problem,

I'll tell you."

Catherine nodded: "Okay. That's it for now."

Catherine shrugged helplessly.

"Yes, but the structural design of flight. There is also the biological brain of the albatross. I will entrust Mr. Van Hill to manufacture it. Although it may not be able to fly by then. But gliding can be done. Using the biological brain of the albatross, you can also

Being able to manipulate the body to find updrafts. Hmm... This method is good."

If the body is modified, Catherine can fly.

Just like the mermaids of the past.

But Catherine wanted to use it for the core body. In this case, the modified body would obviously not work.

"Okay, I will give you the greatest authority."

At this time, Catherine had decided to delegate authority to Jenny and the others.

Maybe Jenny can't create such a body for Catherine now, but maybe she can in the future?

"Come to think of it, I think we can make it. As long as the energy supply problem is solved, other aspects are feasible..."

Jenny thought for a while, and then started calculating on the scratch paper.

"Weight is the thing that needs to be reduced most. As long as the weight can be reduced, we can get more materials..."

Catherine's current body weighs 80kg. It is perfectly fine to use it for PK, but to use it for flying? Sorry. No way...

"We're going to reduce your body to 40kg."

Jenny said this after glancing at Catherine.

"Hey, I weigh over 40 kilograms!"

Catherine complained.

"Then let's further reduce the weight... Well, it would be great if we could replace the bones with hollow ones... But it seems very troublesome to do this for the core body. I'll see if there are other ways... By the way

, if you remove your limbs and replace them with mimic limbs, it should be fine."

Why does it sound so outrageous?

"I'm sorry, body modification and stuff are the most annoying..."

Catherine resolutely refused.

"No, you misunderstood me, Kate." Jenny looked at Catherine, and then shook her head hurriedly: "What I mean is, use the mimetic structure to simulate your limbs. In this case, the mimetic matter is usually stored in your body.

Inside the limbs. When deforming, the existence of the limbs will not affect the deformation effect. Speaking of which, it is almost the same as a cyber body."

Inside the cyber body are mechanical bodies.

This method is probably to replace the limbs with mechanical limbs.

But the only difference from mechanical prostheses is that this model of prostheses can be converted.

"Then you might as well just transform me into the Queen of Blades..."

Catherine murmured quietly.

"……What?"

Jenny didn't hear clearly.

"I mean, is this really feasible?"

Jenny nodded swornly and promised: "Of course it is possible. Moreover, if your weight drops to 40kg, you can easily get lift by increasing the length of the wings. I estimate that you only need a length of 7 to 8 meters."

If we are more serious, maybe we can lower it to 5 to 6 meters."

Jenny added: "Also, if you really want to pretend to be an angel, you can do it. You just need to make your limbs hollow, and that's it."

Catherine was finally satisfied.

But speaking of it, do you want to change your name to Galiao Haijiang?

According to Jenny, the way she turned her limbs into mimetic substances was probably cosplaying the Kalyohai River, right?

Will I call my left hand "hate", my right hand "joy", my left foot "angry", and my right foot "sadness"?

Okay, this complaint is pointless...

Nasu mushrooms, etc., are indeed the most annoying...

"Speaking of which, if it becomes a prosthetic body, it will be much easier to install weapons. For example, we can directly turn the arm into an electromagnetic gun..."

"Don't say such unscientific things..."

Catherine gently hit Jenny on the head with a knife.

"Electromagnetic guns are very realistic. Aren't they all researching weapons in this area now?"

The electromagnetic gun is an advanced kinetic energy killing weapon made using electromagnetic launch technology.

Unlike traditional cannons that use gunpowder gas pressure to act on projectiles, electromagnetic guns use the force of the electromagnetic field in the electromagnetic system, which acts for a much longer time. It can greatly increase the speed and range of projectiles. This has attracted the attention of military strategists from all over the world.

of attention.

Catherine also admitted that based on her connections and intelligence from the Pentagon, they are indeed doing research in this area now.

But...the electromagnetic gun and the like sound really good.

"Um, Jenny, are you sure we can use the electromagnetic gun?"

Even Catherine, who has no moral integrity and no lower limits, is envious of the majesty of Sister Gun.

Think about it, what a feeling it would be like to have the electromagnetic gun penetrate the soul! Such a momentum!

It’s simply very cool!

"Well... let me think about it. I remember that I once discussed relevant information with Mr. Van Heer. A 90mm artillery shell requires about 5 to 10 megajoules of energy. Let's calculate it as 20 kilograms.

The volume of a bullet is about 5 grams...Forget it, let's do a simple conversion and treat it as 2 grams first. Round up the whole number..."

Catherine was also calculating next to her: "If it is 2 grams, the difference is 10,000 times. At this time, if we convert it again..."

20 kilograms uses about 10 megajoules of energy. In terms of bullets, 1,000 rounds is 1 megajoule.

"To put it into perspective, firing 1,000 rounds of bullets would require approximately 1 megajoule of energy. In this case, would it be possible to keep up if the energy was supplied through the human body?"

Catherine calculated silently.

Generally speaking, a person consumes 2,000 calories per day.

1 kcal = 1000 calories = 4200 joules = 0.0042 megajoules.

If completely converted into energy, it is about 8.4 megajoules.

In other words, a person can fire about 8,400 bullets a day... This seems like a lot... Of course, this is the result of calculating 100% of all heat, but in the end, only 20% of the energy can be used for firing.

Bullets, this is still the best state.

Calculating it at 10%, it’s probably... 840 pieces?

In other words, calculating based on a 4-gram bullet, through this simple algorithm, the number of bullets a person can fire per day is... 400?

"Speaking of which, if I want to blow up a car or something, how much energy will it take? How many bullets can I fire?"

Catherine asked again.

"This... let me take a look..."

Catherine is calculating again.

The gun sister's electromagnetic gun fires at 3 times the speed of sound.

Assuming a weight of 5 grams, the energy is only 2600 joules - only 30% higher than an AK47 bullet (nearly 2000 joules).

——But it’s good to remember that the railgun’s game coins will vaporize 50 meters away!

Sister Pao's game currency turned into gas in the end, which shows that the final energy of this electromagnetic gun is actually very high, or...the author, Mr. Hippo, failed in physics!

Fortunately, Catherine has integrity and is excellent in mathematics and physics - of course, she cannot compare with professionals.

"Assume that Sister Pao's game coin weighs 5 grams, let's think of it as nickel. The specific heat capacity of nickel is 0.46, the heat of fusion is 17.48 kilojoules per mole, and the heat of vaporization is 377.5 kilojoules per mole.

The vaporization temperature of nickel is 2730 degrees Celsius.

Therefore...the total energy required to vaporize this game currency is 39.85 kilojoules."

Of course, for convenience, just round the number and calculate it as 40 kilojoules.

"Next, assume that the concealed cross-sectional diameter is 2.4...the propagation speed of sound is 340 meters per second...the wind resistance of the coin is 1, and the coin flies 50 meters and the air friction generates heat...well...calculate it as 2000 joules

Catherine did the math and found that one shot of Sister Cannon's railgun requires about 42,000 joules, which is 2 kilocalories. Calculated at an efficiency of 10%, it is about 20 kilocalories of heat that can fire one railgun. A person can fire one railgun every day.

The energy ingested can be used for about... 100 rounds?

Wait, something seems to be wrong...

42,000 joules of energy…

If that's the case, how can a railgun knock over a car?

Deceived by a hippo!

Catherine's thoughts about the electromagnetic gun are rapidly collapsing!

Such a gap is really huge!

"Hippo, you unscrupulous physics blind..."

Catherine facepalmed.

With such a gesture, the electromagnetic gun is not powerful at all! It is not powerful at all!

…

The power of the electromagnetic gun is calculated for me for an hour! Does it matter for an hour? Does it matter?
