Across
- 4. Applying a little thermodynamics, we can calculate that he would have to generate around 940 million joules to "flame on" to a temperature of 5,000˚C.
- 6. Sorry, you just can't store enough energy to make long flights without making the suit too big to wear.
- 7. This Pixar family defies physics is so many ways - it's impossible to list them all here
- 11. Gamma Rays? I don't think they have that effect.
- 13. Although he is just an animation, he is a villain with magnitude and direction.
- 14. The energy released in a normal lightning bolt is about 500 million joules, which is equivalent to 120,000 food calories. To produce even a single lightning bolt, this superhero would have to eat at least 60 times the recommended daily amount for an adult female.
- 15. Even if he was born on another planet he still has to obey the laws of physics on Earth
- 18. In order to store this much energy in his magnetic field, he must generate a current of around 2,900 amps. That might not be so good for his heart--assuming he has one.
- 19. The only one of the Fantastic Four who didn't get a "fantastic" makeover, funny but radiation would not affect 4 different people 4 different ways.
- 20. Wouldn't friction cause this guy to catch on fire?
- 22. Sorry Disney princess, it would take 5,800,000,000,000,000 Joules to freeze that fjord.
Down
- 1. An alloy is made up of two or more metals, this guy has adamantium (a fake alloy by the way) forcibly fused onto his bones.
- 2. What exactly is that hammer made of? A neutron star?
- 3. I appreciate the fact that he is not generally shown to be able to fly; he drops off a building and lands on a lower building later. He trades some of his gravitational potential energy for some kinetic energy, but, he really needs a bigger cape.
- 5. Einsteinian physics provide hints at how transport through wormholes might be achieved. By current standards, such portals seem wildly unlikely, but no more so than an evil Norse god waging war against a team of superheros.
- 8. Things hit the shield. Really, that is the point of having a shield. But what about momentum?
- 9. Scientists have proven that this hero's mode of transportation could be possible according to a paper entitled Traversable Achronal Retrograde Domains In Spacetime
- 10. Hmm, radioactive arachnids, what kind of radiation I wonder.
- 12. She may be the girl on fire, but her dress should have been made out of kevlar if she wanted to survive
- 16. For a video game character to jump that high, it should take the same amount of time to fall back down, but this little guy falls fast, even when falling down pipes.
- 17. A true physics superhero! - inventor of calculus
- 21. This guy may be a lovable monster, or is he a hero? Scientists think it is possible to convert sound to energy, but capturing children's screams by jumping out of closets, not very nice!
