Tiny fragments can travel all the way around the earth from a 1-pound explosion.
Half a Mile
half a mile
they travel how far they want to
Depending on the material, it will be 1/2 mile CBRNE - 1/2 mile
It depends upon the size of the fragments. Very small fragments can be blown into the air and carried by air currents around the world.
If the projectiles are small enough, they can travel around the world from a 1-pound explosion.
That depends on a lot more than the weight of the explosive. The type of explosive How it's packed The material being fragmented The shape of the fragments To give you an illustration, a Mark II grenade (the "pineapple" one) has an effective injury radius of about 10 meters, but someone could still be injured by one 100 meters away.
It depends on many factors, and as a result a simple answer cannot be given, the variables are, type of explosive, how the explosive force is focussed ie the amount of anergy irected in a given area, the density of the object, and the size of the object. Take the explosive force produced by a bullet, te projectile can travel hundreds of metres, sometime kilometers, because of the way te explosive force is contained and focussed, but take the same amount of explosive in open air, and the same projectile would only travel a few metres. Again replace the bullet with a material such as cork, and wouldnt travel very far. jomac

Do eels travel Far
