Rohirrim charge into Orcs

Randall Munroe developed this "horse-drag equation" for
calculation of the power needed to push through a crowd on a
horse.[sup][1][/sup]
crowd density (per square meter) x crowd weight per person (in
lbs) x horse chest width (in feet) x speed[sup]3[/sup] (in mph)
= power (in watts)
He estimates that the power required to push through the crowd
of orcs is 97kW, or 130 horsepower. That's around six times the
maximum power output of a horse.[sup][2][/sup]
However, what if we plug in the RW figures? A RW horse is
currently a vole, so:
775 orcs/m x 0.09 lbs/orc x 0.116 ft x 5[sup]3[/sup] mph =
1011.375
1011 watts is way too much—it's over 1.3 horsepower. I may have
made a mistake by plugging in imperial figures instead of
metric.
[1]: How To, Randall Munroe, p.124.
[2]: A horse can do more than 1 horsepower for a short amount of
time, as a horsepower is defined by work over a longer period of
time.

Smaug smashes through pillars

Smaug body checks though those two pillars with little effort.
The energy required to break them into pieces that size is
probably about 8 J/cc.[sup][1][/sup] The pillars look about 4
feet (30.48 cm) tall, 3 inches (7.62 cm) wide, and 3 inches
(7.62 cm) deep.
30.48 x 7.62 x 7.62 x 2 = 3539 cubic cm.
3539 x 8 = 20000 joules (Wall level)

Smaug smashes through bridge

The bridge is not broken into small enough pieces to count as
total fragmentation, so I'll use 4 J/cc. The bridge is probably
the size of one of the pillars in the last calc.
1770 times 4 = 7000 joules (Street level)

Buck the T.rex smashes through a warehouse wall

Concrete
Pulverization value for concrete is 40 J/cc
HTML https://vsbattles.fandom.com/wiki/Calculations#Table_of_Destruction_Values.<br
/>
10 cm x 2.5 cm x 2 cm = 50 cc
50 x 40 = 2000 J Street level
Wood
I'll use wood values for the whole lower part of the wall, but
some might be drywall.
Fragmentation for white fir wood is 3.6542 J/cc.
HTML https://vsbattles.fandom.com/wiki/User_blog:Jasonsith/General_Destruction_Values_of_Wood#Table_of_Destruction_Values_-_Soft_Wood
1 cm x 10 cm x 3 cm = 30 cc
30 x 3.6542 x 109.626 J Human level
2000 + 109.626 = 2109.626 J Street level

38.89 J/cc is an approximation
HTML https://vsbattles.fandom.com/wiki/User_blog:Spinosaurus75DinosaurFan/Some_missing_destruction_values#Ballistic_Glass<br
/>for the violent fragmentation of ballistic glass.
About 60 x 60 x 1 = 3600 cc are destroyed.
38.89 J/cc x 3600 cc = 140004 J, Wall level
