At InfiniteDay's request, I am doing my version of calculating Robo Fizzo's "reaction" to a sniper bullet at close range. The calculation of this moment is already there. But I disagree with him for some reason.
In fact, I disagree that there is a bullet reaction here. In the comments under the same blog, I wrote why. I ask you to review them before saying whether the calculation itself is correct or not. I do this calculation simply out of interest, what will I get in response.
Now, I agree that there is a reaction. I changed my mind.
Let's start[]
Blitzos's height without horn is 1.48112280702 meters.
Blitzos's height without horn is 1.85079114943 meters.
InfiniteDay and I agree that Blitzo was aiming at the red one in the circle.
I am going to make several calculation options. I will use the distance based on the muzzle length of the sniper rifle (RED LINE) and not counting the muzzle length (BLUE LINE). The bullet starts its way at the beginning of the muzzle. But as I was told, the wiki doesn't take that into account. But I haven't seen anyone from calc members or admins write about this directly. Also, I am going to use several different Fizzo's diameters. The first option is taken from my previous calculation. And in the second, I'll try to find the diameter through Blitzo's height (PURPLE LINE). Because in this frame, the diameter is just slightly higher than Blitzo's height.
Distance traveled by a bullet, taking into account the muzzle:
1.85079114943 / 249.5 × 457.5 = 3.393735274 meters.
Distance traveled by a bullet excluding muzzle:
1.85079114943 / 249.5 × 253.6 = 1.88120495189 meters.
Possible diameter:
1.85079114943 / 249.5 × 283.9 = 2.10597037003 meters.
I assume that Fizzo managed to make exactly one circle, because he is spinning so fast that the eye cannot keep up. The effect is the same as with a helicopter propeller.
Movement = (2.10597037003 × 360 × π) / 180 = 13.2322020863 meters.
Diameter from the previous calculation:
Movement = (2.99490597617 × 360 × π) / 180 = 18.8175492259 meters

There are somehow too many options...

- High-High-High-End = 9102.6 m/s, or 26.7 mach (High Hypersonic)
Definitely not three-digit mach numbers.
Update[]
I changed the results due to the fact that Blitzo was higher than we thought. But the results have hardly changed. The difference was literally one billionth of a m / s. Sometimes the answer came out more than it was. Sometimes less. Well, but everything has become more true. At least something pleases.
