With Optimus Prime's weight being 22 tons, let's recalculate the energy released during the impact.
Assuming the same velocity range of 0.1c to 0.2c (30,000 km/s to 60,000 km/s), we can plug in the new mass value:
Mass = 22,000 kg (22 tons)
Kinetic_energy = 0.5 × Mass × Velocity^2
At 0.1c:
Kinetic_energy ≈ 0.5 × 22,000 kg × (30,000 km/s)^2
≈ 9.9 × 10^22 Joules
At 0.2c:
Kinetic_energy ≈ 0.5 × 22,000 kg × (60,000 km/s)^2
≈ 3.96 × 10^23 Joules
Converting these energies to gigatons of TNT (GT):
At 0.1c: ≈ 9.9 × 10^22 Joules ÷ 4.184 × 10^15 Joules/GT ≈ 236 GT
At 0.2c: ≈ 3.96 × 10^23 Joules ÷ 4.184 × 10^15 Joules/GT ≈ 946 GT
So, the energy released during the impact would be equivalent to hundreds to thousands of gigatons of TNT, making it an incredibly powerful blow.
