Dynamite and TNT destroy things via a shock wave; there is nothing intrinsic about TNT or Dynamite that causes something to be destroyed (i.e. the explosion could just as easily have been produced by any other explosive material).
All (solid or semi-solid) materials have a fracturing point, and can thus be "destroyed" by an explosive. The key is how strong the shock wave is when it hits the material, and of course the composition of the material in question.
In short, there is no answer to your question, other than, YES, TNT can theoretically defeat any material, given the proper amounts and configuration of TNT, and for certain configurations of the material.

∙ 11y agoIt really depends upon the quantity of TNT and the kind of structure that the material in question is used to build. In general, your best best for resisting explosions is a good quality of steel. But with enough TNT you can still blow it up.

Is dynamite organic or inorganic?
The compound is Trinitrotoluene. The question was "is TNT an organic compound?" as organic compounds are characterized by chain carbon to carbon bonding. Where ususally at least one hydrogen atom is bonded to a carbon atom, then TNT would be considered an organic compound. See the molecular structure below.C6H2(NO2)3CH3However, carbonates (CO32-) or carbides would not be considered organic.Hope this helps
What gas is used to make explosives?
Dynamite is some sort of filler that's been soaked in nitroglycerin, then packed into a tube for use. Nobel used sawdust as his filler, but you can use just about anything that will soak up liquid.
Is TNT a heterogenous or homogenous substance?
TNT is a homogeneous substance.
Is there different grades of tnt?
TNT comes in many different grades, A and B the most common. Grading of TNT depends on chemical composition and color.
How many atoms are there in trinitrotoluene?
Trinitrotolune, TNT, has the molecular formula of C7H5N3O6, so in one molecule of TNT there are 21 atoms. Of course, the number of atoms will change as the amount of TNT changes.
What explosive material did Nobel invent?
TNT, dynamite
What song goes cause you are TNT I'm dynamite?
ACDC-TNT
In shows what initials do they use for dynamite?
TNT?
Who invented TNT and dynamite?
marche geter
What makes a 4wheeler explode?
Dynamite ! , & TNT .
How much is 154 pounds of TNT converted into pounds of dynamite?
That would be about 61.6 lbs of 40% nitroglycerin equivalent dynamite. Dynamite has approximately 60% greater energy density than TNT.
Why is dynamite called TNT?
It is Dynamite after a Greek word called Dynamis which means Power
What invention replaced dynamite?
TNT (trinitrotoluene). It is more stable than dynamite, which is nitroglycerine and wood pulp.
What explosives were used in mining?
TNT or dynamite which contain nitroglycerin
In the show Tom and Jerry what letters represent dynamite?
TNT .
Is there a song with initials tmp?
Yes, but it is TNT, it means DYNAMITE!
Is dynamite and tnt the same?
They could not be more different. Dynamite is sawdust or clay, soaked in liquid nitroglycerine, formed into a cylinder, and wrapped in paper. TNT is the abbreviation of trinitrotoluene, a flakey, yellow substance, often formed into a stick and used similarly to dynamite. TNT can also be used in chemistry to create charge transfer salts.
