Cybertruck (Cyberbeast) Weight on Scale: 7120 lbs (~3236 kg)

[CTSoFL]

On State Certified Scales for Little Rock Solid Waste Disposal. 7120 lbs ~ 3236 kg.

Full or empty tank of gas?

It makes a difference you know.

Also, charging the battery adds the weight of those electrons.

Which is heavier, a 7,120lb Cyberbeast or 7,120lbs of feathers?

Also, charging the battery adds the weight of those electrons.

Quite significant too:
"The electron actually weighs 9.11x10-28 grams. This means it would take about 1,830 electrons to equal the mass of one proton."

Haha... except that charging the battery doesn't "add electrons" so much as it rearranges the charges in the battery from one with low potential energy to an arrangement with higher potential energy, like pumping water from a lower reservoir to a higher reservoir, so the process can be reversed later to do work.

That said, a charged truck does very literally have larger mass than a discharged one via E=mc^2, where 123 kW-hr is about 5 micrograms. Such is the power of nuclear energy: a gram of mass is equivalent to the energy needed to charge 200,000 cybertrucks.

lol, you got me! I definitely am not doubting a Particle Physicist!

So how do weights compare be against other CT. Are they installing different batteries?

 

[mhaze]

Yeah, that’s because it was fully charged!

Got to figure in the weight of them electrons!

All Cybertrucks have 4680 batteries made in Texas.

At some point gen 3 batteries will be installed. I am anxious to see if the weight changes and if they will software limit etc.
