Does an explosion create a shock wave?
Almost always, if the velocity of the expanding gases exceed the velocity of sound in that medium you will have a sonic boom. But even if you merely pop a paper bag, there will be a small shock wave as the air pressure dissipates to become equal with the surroundings.
How is electrical shock hazard defined?
The phrase "electrical shock hazard" means that there is a risk of electrical shock.

What harm that could result from having switches and outlets within children's reach?
There is not any real danger of a switch being within reach of a child as long as it has the proper cover installed. The one exception is a garbage disposal switch for obvious reasons. Outlets however should be the new child proof kind or they should have a child proof cover installed to prevent the child from sticking some sort of metal device into the outlet resulting in a shock to the child. If you have small children in your home I highly recommend you replace all the old outlets with the new child proof outlets you can purchase anywhere.
What force is it when a big truck passes you on the highway?
The shock wave all objects make as they push air out of their way to move. A truck has a substantial bow shock you can feel. The air currents you produce as you pass a desk and a piece of paper moves.

What was it when you were outside you went to pick up an extension cord when it felt like something smack you in the back of the head what was it and what should you do?
That was the wet extension cord giving you an electrical shock. Most exterior electrical outlets have a ground fault so you did not receive the full impact of the shock. You will be fine. Don't pick up plugged in electrical cords when they are wet, unplug them first.

What parts are needed to make an ever-lasting flashlight?
AnswerWow, ID1177301194 put ANSWER in the answer box. Okay, well you should start with getting the materials.Materials2 D cell batteries [use alkaline instead of heavy-duty (carbon-zinc) batteries](2) 5" pieces of number 22 insulated copper bell wire with approximately 1" of insulation stripped off all endsCardboard tube (toilet tissue or paper towel) cut to 4" in lengthPR6, or number 222, 3-volt flashlight bulb2 brass fasteners (brads)1" x 3" cardboard stripPaper clipTapeBathroom-size paper cupNote: You can use C or AA or even AAA batteries. You just need something smaller to hold and contain the batteries and the won't last as long.ProceduresPush brass fasteners through tube. Attach a paper clip. This clip will be like an on and off switch.Inside the tube, attach a wire to each brass fastener. Tape batteries together and insert one into each tube, (+) to (-).Tape one end of wire very securely to bottom of one battery's negative (-) terminal.Pass other wire end through a hole (large enough to insert light bulb) in center of cardboard strip. Then twist the wire around bulb and insert the bulb into cardboard strip. This strip, when taped to tube, will position bulb for contact to positive (+) terminal.Use a paper cup as a reflector by inserting bulb through a hole punched in bottom of cup. Tape securely.HAVE FUN.DO NOT USE HOUSEHOLD ELECTRICAL CURRENT! IT MIGHT SHOCK AND KILL YOU!!!
