Scientifically, Stark’s hacks are quite rough. If plutonium and americium are still usable (they materially exists), the other elements are so unstable that they only last for several micro-seconds before decaying. In principle, I don’t quite understand how one can use a laser to create a new element: in reality, the new “super-heavy” elements are created not with lasers, but by bombarding a chunk of matter with lighter (and faster) elements, like protons. Maybe one day we will see a real Iron Man suit flying around doing some real life superhero stuff, but for now, this will have to do. Another big difference, this Iron Man replica helmet comes with its own version of Jarvis, the AI assistant guiding Tony Stark’s every move in the movie. It is this very principle that makes jet planes go forwards and rockets move to the moon. For Iron Man, it’s the same thing: in order for the suit to move upwards, it has to expel gases downwards. Such an engine uses an electromagnet in order to accelerate ions (charged particles) and propel them. In order for Stark being able to fit in the suit, it has to be slightly bigger, but again, let’s assume that the armor has the same body-surface than a typical human.
To simplify, let’s assume that the armor is 3 cm (1.2 inches) thick and is equally recovering Tony’s body. And even if the suit was only 3 mm (0.1 inch) instead of 3 cm (1.2 inches) thick, it would still weight as much as 61 kg (109 lbs). This whole production was about as much fun as toothache at Christmas. Stark later presented her with an omelette he had tried to make, much to her confusion. So, unless Stark has several arc reactors in his garden and many tons of palladium (which might be the case), his little power-cord is totally useless. The real equation that you might encounter in books is a little bit different, because the equation in the movie is only an equivalent form. This might work… providing that Stark has an enormous ions supply in his suit and an extremely powerful ion thruster: a typical thrust of such an engine is equivalent to 50 to 250 millinewton, which is as low as the force of blowing on hand with your mouth !
The propulsion of the device is then generated by the thrust of the ions. Browning, a former marine reservist who runs ultramarathons and performs calisthenics stunts, admitted that piloting the device takes quite a lot of personal strength and body coordination. This is better, but still a lot to be carried around with one hand… Conclusion: unless Happy is a super genetically modified weightlifter, the action of lifting the armor with one hand is not possible for an average human… Iron Man is a popular action figure among not only kids but also teenagers and adults. The figure is taken from human powered helicopter attempts over the years. A good pal: Gwyneth Paltrow had never planned a wedding before because even though she was married to Chris Martin for over a decade, they never had a ceremony. Then, even when he does taken on the superhero mantle, Parker is still plagued by money woes – constantly fighting for funds as a photojournalist from his hard-nose editor J. Jonah Jameson. Then, when he deflects the laser beam, logically, the beam should have stopped right after he begins to deflect it. The beam can be shot in either plasma form (like standard repulsors) or in energy form (blue beam).
Iron Man’s suit’s propulsion like it is stared in the movies remains a mystery for science. I went into cosplay to encourage others like me who struggle with their confidence and self-esteem to break out of their shells, put on a cape and show how great of a person they are inside. Oh, and concerning Stark’s acceleration: it’s about 13,7 g; one can do the math on that at the end of the third movie, when Iron Man saves the 13 people falling out of the presidential airplane, when the suit brakes right above the water (more math on that further in this article). Marvel fans have seen Tony Stark operate as Iron Man wearing a variety of different armored suits over the years, but it’s hard to keep with exactly how many have appeared on the big screen. A bit further in the same movie, Nick Furry hands some belongings over to Tony. At the ending of the first movie, we learn that the suit is made out of a gold-titanium alloy. Still, it turns out that none of these armors is the strongest in MCU. Not only does she get to fly around and blast aliens, she gets to deliver some solid hits to Thanos alongside the other women of the MCU.
