[QUOTE]Originally posted by Treknophyle: [QB] Coould someone check these figures - I get a different result: [Density of LH (Slush):] 1cc = .0707 grams 1 cubic meter (1x10exp3 meter) = 7.07 x 10exp1 kg 1 pod anti-hydrogen shush (1x10exp3 meter) = 7.07x10exp4 kg [Energy Released by Matter/Antimatter Reaction] 1 kg AM + a kg M = 1.8x10exp17 Joules (using matter-energy conversion formula where 1 kg = 9.0x10exp16J - then double figure to allow for 1 kg of matter as well) Reactant mass for 1 pod: 7.07x10exp4 kg x 2 = 1.1414x1-exp5kg 1.414x10exp5kg x 9.0x10exp16 = 2.5452x10exp23J [Megatonnage/Potential Explosive Power per Pod] 1 pod + reactant = 2.5452x10exp23J 1 megaton of TNT = 4.18x10exp515 1 pod + reactant = 6.088x10exp7 megatons I need the correct data to work out the power/fuel-consumption curve for various starships - given the TNG Tech Manual curve.
