What is the difference between combustion and detonation as in a internal combustion?
When the engine detonates its referring to the engine giving spark to the compressed air/fuel in the cylinder, when theres combustion its simply the explosion that happens after ignition.
What is the detonation and knocking in cars?
When an engine runs as it should the fuel/air mix in the combustion chamber ignites at the spark plug and the flame front spreads from there. In an engine that's knocking there are hotspots in the combustion chamber causing the fuel/air mixture to ignite prematurely a bit all over the place.
What is the difference between preignition and detonation and how do they cause engine damage?
They are the same thing. They cause damage by applying the force of combustion to the piston before it has reached the top of its stroke, which basically pushes it "backwards"
Knocking in the bottom of the engine?
knocking noise
Why is diesel is not used in petrol engines?
Because diesel is ignited of heat and high high compresion not a spark on lower compresion petrol engine. If you use diesel in a petrol you will end up with your engine knocking and pre-detonation followed by your engine blowing up pretty bad.

What is a knock sensor?
A knock sensor is a device that senses detonation. Detonation occurs in the engine when the fuel begins to burn prematurely; it can cause substantial damage to the engine.

Why is your vortec 5.0 knocking?
It could be: A. worn rod or main bearings. If that's the case you'll have low oil pressure. B. a faulty "knock sensor" that's supposed to retard the engine timing when it detects early ignition detonation.
When do Detonation occurs in a reciprocating aircraft engine?
the unburned charge in the cylinders explodes instead of burning normally.
