Four: Who is faster Bolt or Dai Zong

Usain Bolt or Dai Zong who is faster

Writing this topic, I am also happy, is it a bit of a taste of Guan Gong and Qin Qiong?

On the current earth, when it comes to human speed, it is impossible not to mention Bolt, whose fastest speed of 100 meters is 9.58 seconds. Human speed is unprecedented, at least unprecedented, since records have been recorded.

How fast was Dai Zong, who was born a thousand years ago? It is very clear in "Water Margin" that the fastest speed is "800 miles a day". Every mile is 500 meters, and 800 miles is equal to - 400,000 meters.

Day and night refer to a day, and day refers to day, 24 hours a day, and we take half of each. In other words, Dai Zong ran 400,000 meters in 12 hours.

400,000 m÷12÷3,600 seconds = 9.259 m/s

Dai Zong's 100-meter run is -

100 m ÷ 9.259 m/s = 10.8 s.

In other words, Dai Zong's 100-meter running speed is far less than that of Bolt, and he is not as fast as Su Bingtian. Su Bingtian's current best time in the 100m is 9.92 seconds.

Of course, Dai Zong is a long-distance runner, and he calculates the average speed, and if he runs a little longer, Bolt and others are not his opponents. Dai Zong ran down in one day, almost ten marathons.

Among the four famous novels, when it comes to speed, the one that leaves a deep impression on people is Sun Wukong, which is too fast. A "somersault cloud" is 108,000 miles. So, how fast is Sun Wukong's "somersault cloud"? From "Journey to the West", you can really find clues. Let's take a look at the following text -

Sanzang said happily on the horse: "Apprentice, I have always come to the west, and I have experienced many mountains and rivers, all of which are sagmy and steep, and they are not as beautiful as this mountain, and they are really very interesting. If it is not far from Lei Yin, we can clean up and see the world. The walker smiled: "Morning! Morning! I just don't get a mile! Sha Seng said: "Senior brother, how far are we from Leiyin?" The walker said, "One hundred and eight thousand miles." I haven't walked a mile in ten stops. Bajie said: "Brother, how many years will it take to get it?" The walker said: "These roads, if you talk about the two virtuous brothers, you can also reach them in ten days; If I go, it is better to walk fifty times a day, and I will see the sun; If the master goes, don't think about it! Don't think! ”

——("Journey to the West: Chapter 24")

This conversation is very interesting, Sun Wukong not only said his own speed, but also the speed of the two junior brothers. Let's do the math and the results will come out.

"108,000 miles" is converted to 54,000 kilometers; "Walking 50 times a day, and seeing the sun" means that you go in the morning and return before the sun sets, and you can calculate it in 12 hours, so you have the following calculation formula:

54000×50÷12÷60÷60=62.5 km/s

62.5 km/s is the speed of the Monkey King.

The speed at which Zhu Bajie and Sha and Seng soared through the clouds was:

54000÷10÷12÷60÷60 = 0.125 km = 125 m/s

The speed of Zhu Bajie and Sha He Seng is 125 m/s, which is far from Sun Wukong's 62.5 km/s.

The speed of Sun Wukong is much faster than the speed of the first universe of 7.9 km/s, the second universe of 11.2 km/s, and the third universe speed of 16.7 km/s. Therefore, Sun Wukong has no problem walking in the solar system and even the Yinhe system. But his speed is still quite far from the speed of the fourth universe of 110-120 km/s, so he can't get out of the control of the galaxy, and can only go around the galaxy.

Wukong's speed is really small compared to the speed of light (300,000 kilometers per second), which is only equivalent to 2/100,000th of the speed of light, which is almost negligible. It takes 1.7 hours for Goku to travel from Earth to the Moon (380,000 kilometers apart) and 28.6 days to travel from Earth to the Sun (150 million kilometers apart). It can be seen that the Monkey King's activity space in "Journey to the West" does not exceed the solar system, and the heavenly palace where he made a fuss is also within the scope of the solar system. If Sun Wukong is happy and wants to play in the "South Gate II" of the Centaur constellation (41 trillion kilometers away from the Earth), the closest star to Earth (beyond the Sun), it will take at least 2 years. To be more romantic, go to see the Vega (Vega is 2.63 billion light-years from the Earth), which is more than a million years old. Sun Wukong, who seems to have great powers, is also quite pitiful.

As for the speed of Zhu Bajie and Sha Monk He at 125 m / s, it is not worth mentioning, it is faster than cars and trains, and it is not as fast as supersonic (the speed of sound is 334 m / s) aircraft.

With the rapid development of science, in another 1,800 years, "Journey to the West" may not be able to be read as a mythological novel, and it will be a little tender when it is read as a "human fiction".

But no matter what, "Journey to the West" is a great mythological novel, and in the final analysis, it is not written about divinity, but about human nature.

Speed and furious are also the eternal themes of human pursuit, and the fastest tool for ordinary people is the airplane. If you want to be faster, you have to rely on technological progress.
