    18:06 Distributed thrusters is actually a thing that Tony adds in his Mk-2 suit once he comes back home (probably because of the massive injury he faced after the crash landing of the crude Mk-1 suit). If you nitpick through the first montage of him training to use his new suit, you will see the initial pre-flight caliberation sequence that Jarvis runs during the suit up. Everytime Tony enters his flight mode or uses his palm thrusters for offensive blasts, the distributed thrusters in this back also light up and fire off for counterbalance. These tiny thrusters, accompanied by tiny moveable winglets, from my observation are present near his abdomen, higher back, middle back, thighs and leg calves which help him in his flight balance and save him from momentum impacts.

  • @MonkeyDLuffy-cm4fm
    @MonkeyDLuffy-cm4fm 4 ปีที่แล้ว +257

    Just to clarify one thing. When Tony explained his reactor’s power it was the first one and in the movie he upgrades it and the bad guy stole the upgraded one and he had to use the old one that he made in the cave and the A.I said that one is not designed to fly.
    Also the tank hitting Tony it doesn’t show it was direct most likely it just grazed him and sent him off balance.
    Thanks for the math you doing amazing video by the way I love it.

    • @SimonBenjamin
      @SimonBenjamin 4 ปีที่แล้ว +97

      Yep true we don’t know whether the tank shell was direct or glancing. However if you watch the scene the impact does dramatically change the way Tony is moving, so there is a big change in momentum, and his body would have to pay the price for that.
      And yep the power reactor gets better over the movie (and over following movies) I guess I’m saying that even the first one has plenty of power to make the things we see possible (from and energy point of view at least).

      ​@@SimonBenjamin I would love a updated video on the suit.
      Since the tech he's using in the suit can be something like graphene or carbon nano tubes or artificial muscles that is either dampening the force that the armor pieces on he's suit experiences and counter reacts that down to the level that makes it equal to the damage he took as seen when he's home and out of the suit.
      And the suit has a pressurized internal area for him and he's body too.
      And the shell he got hit by can also just be a AA shell/shrapnel shell or a HE shell, since it's Shooting at a flying target witch would mean any sabo or anti armor rounds would be most likely not used for something like that at those ranges (1-2km by a estimation of the distance shown in the movie) and since he lands or crashes some hundred meters away from the tank it's self maybe as much as 500m but more likely around 100-200m out.
      The arc reactor on the other hand can be a more advanced version of the prototype large plasma/fusion reactors we are currently testing and building here in europe.
      And last but not least....he's weight....200kg is not that much for something that advanced....so i'd increase it to at least 400kg maybe even 500kg.

    I know this is four years old but seriously….I wish I had a teacher like you to help explain me abstract concepts like this. My problem was always visualizing it and that prohibited my relation and in turn my learning. If you I could have had someone like you teach me using comic books and movies….I have been such a better student. Good job dude and thank you for doing this.
    Also to kind of bring a bit of nerdiness into this: the movie does depict several additional thruster through out the suit for flight stabilization. If you review the scenes when he is developing flight in the suit you can see these several tiny thrusters in the exposed boot as he successfully lifts off. I do not know if they are enough thrusters or anything like that for what you said. But i believe we are left to assume there are several flight stabilizing thruster through out the suit. One could assume that power could be routed to those thrusters in a big way via automation in the form of the algorithms in the Jarvis AI. I dunno if I am on the right track or reaching. I am but a simple aircraft mechanic here lol but I would love to get your feedback….even though I am four years late to watching your video.

    I’m sure it’s been mentioned but we actually see most of Tony’s suits have additional thrusters in the shoulder blade and calf areas. The portrayal of these features varies between movies but it is in fact there. Also I would imagine as the genius defense contractor & weapons designer he is, he would make sure Jarvis is constantly on alert for nearly imperceptible threats to auto engage before Tony could even react or simply without His input. I mean we now have pretty decently self driving cars, albeit with room for improvement, they can parallel park, tell if somethings in their path, stop or attempt to avoid collisions, and maneuver down a highway pretty easily… so it’s probably safe to say tony incorporated micro thrusters akin to those on satellites or large sea vessels to maintain stability or do fine course corrections.
    Regardless great insights here, I’ve seen this vid a couple times over the years and it’s always a joy!! Thanks dude!

    It depends on what kind of projectile hits him and if it's hit as you have assumed wich is basicly worst case scenario or if it's glancing hit (bounce) wich can be anywhere from deadly to survivable.
    From the short clip shown in movie my best guess for shell type is some kind of HEAT shell wich uses explosives in the shell to get trough armor.

    The math you were doing for the 3MJ/second would be for the FIRST ARC reactor.
    As you remember, when Tony has to use the old reactor at the end of the movie, Jarvis said the reactor wasn't set for continuous flight.
    So the new ARC reactor was producing MORE power than the first one.

    BRILLIANTT, THANK YOU FOR MAKING THIS VIDEO PROFESSOR.
    I am a high school student from Indonesia and im really interested in physics. I wanna ask professor, is it possible to make a flying tech, imagine its like a long shoes that at the calves part i make a slim hole that fits aerodinamicly with my legs and works like a vacuum cleaner, sucking air in big mass and push the sucked air from my foot to act as a booster so that i can fly, and also make the same tech in my arms to control the direction when im flying. I cant stop thinking about this theory lately but i need a professional to guide me, i hope i will be as smart as you and you responded to this thoughts, thank you professor.

      Hi, thanks for the comment. Well what you are describing is similar to the way regular jets work (which heat up air to make it expand and push it out the back) or drone engines (which are just fans to push the air) so it would definitely be possible according to physics! The challenge is to have a light and powerful source of energy to make it all work. The recent progress in drones is partly because of better batteries, but you'd need something even better to lift a human and keep them flying for a reasonable time.

    • @SimonBenjamin
      @SimonBenjamin 4 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      As far as I know, it’s a made up thing at any scale. But it definitely sounds like a real thing so good job to the writers! I suppose in the movie it was a real thing before Tony got captured and then he miniaturised it - but in real life it isn’t a thing at all. Maybe you need to invent it :)

  • @johnroyrigodon6635
    @johnroyrigodon6635 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    I think what addresses the momentum problem was the metal used in his recent armors. It is a fictional element Vibranium wich can absorb huge amount of energy. Of course I'm still doubting on how Tony handled that momentum problem before he started using Vibranium.

    This is a really interesting video, loved it! I also recently thought about how in the opening scene of iron Man 2, he's doing a superhero landing going from what seems to be very high speeds to a complete stop in an extremely short time. So I was wondering how he could stay completely safe and sound after such a extreme impact and acceleration, and also how he didn't just fell through the platform helanded on 😂

      As long as the suit is moving at the exact same speed as Tony than it’s ok. Same thing as when your driving a car. As long as you are going the same speed as the car than your ok. It’s when you keep moving vs the suit or the car your in that you die or get hurt. Hope that made sense

    Don't know if you will see this but I watched an engineer critique Tony's suit and remarks on the detail they put in place where they show mini-thrusters through our the suit it you couple that with an advanced AI it would be able to counter the event without his input. Main issue would be what his suit is made of, this is where they take a scifi side step with vibranium

    For the shell example, you are assuming that he stops the shell, but, you can see in the video, that it makes him "spin" and therefore the motion deflects some of the impact?

    I seen the references to heat vs power generated arguments and the thing I find missing is is the reference to the material used. Palladium is not radioactive in any way. It is more of a Platinum metal by atomic charts. In order for it to produce the required amounts of power it would require it to be a metal of the uranium family of metals. There by producing lethal amounts of radiation.

    Moscovium plates distributed over the surface of his suit. Perfect fix. Moscovium(element 115) is postulated to generate gravity. The plate configuration could be such to generate a gravity well around his body enabling it to withstand or nullify inertial forces. Of course, he would've discovered the means to stabilize that ephemeral element.
