Ranma's punches could push away enough air that sound can't travel through
unless the opponent is really dumb

antimatterenergy wrote:Ranma does not necessarily have to ever stop moving he could use the bounce back from hitting the opponent/target to chamber his fist. Also Ranma doesn't have to decelerate because his arm can only go so far before it naturally bounces back (kind of like a rubber band) or gets pulled out of the socket.

For starters if the speed of sound is (at 22 C, 0 humidity, sea level) 480 meters per second and he's doing 1.2 meter punches one way well 480/2.4 = 200 meaning even if he was pulling back a full 1.2 meters (which he's not) he could still do a full 199 punches before reaching the speed of sound.
