Ok just going to be using potenial energy to calc this.....

A car's mass varies between 990 to 2000 kg... I'll be using the low end 990 cause idc

Assuming earth gravity so 9.81 m/s2

He lifts the car above his head...Superman is 6 foot 2 which is 1.8796000000000002 meters...













990 x 9.81 x 1.8796000000000002



which is 18254.48724000000194238 joules

or... 0.00000436 Tons of Tnt
