Underwater explosives (depth charges, torpedoes, submarine sinkers, etc) are just designed to successfully explode, just like any other bomb. Being in water doesn't affect a bomb too much, as long as the explosive material doesn't get wet, as well as any electronic detonating systems.
In other words, an underwater explosive is just like any other explosive, but just waterproof.
The three categories of high explosives are primary explosives, secondary explosives, and tertiary explosives. Primary explosives are very sensitive and are used to initiate a detonation. Secondary explosives are more stable and are commonly used in commercial and military applications. Tertiary explosives are less sensitive and are often used as propellants.
The three categories of explosives are: high explosives, including dynamite and TNT, which detonate with a supersonic shockwave; low explosives, such as black powder and gunpowder, which deflagrate with a subsonic burn rate; and secondary explosives, like RDX and PETN, which are more powerful and sensitive than primary explosives like TNT.
No, explosives cannot be made from urine. Urine does not contain the necessary chemicals or properties to produce explosives.
I know of no widespread standard color coding for explosives. I work with some products that are in white packaging, some yellow, some orange. It is pretty much a manufacturer's choice. The actual explosive material can be any color, from pink to grey to black. US military ordnance has standard colors, such as OD Green with a yellow stripe for High Explosive, but that is not used world wide.
No, explosives typically do not contain sulfuric acid. Explosives are usually composed of chemicals that rapidly release energy when ignited or detonated, such as nitroglycerin or TNT. Sulfuric acid is a strong acid that is not commonly found in explosives.
* Some firearms work underwater * Torpedoes * Depth charges * Edged weapons (knives, spears, spear guns, tridents) * Mines * Explosives ANSWER: Bang stick (a shotgun shell on a pole) is another.
Yes.
Explosives work well.
No.
It doesn't work
No the touchscreen is unable to work underwater.
An underwater mp3 player can work with no hassle underwater so long as you do not go beyond 5 meters or 15 feet underwater in which the sound frequency would get messed up.
yes
People who make fire works!
No, GPS signals cannot penetrate underwater because they are radio waves that dissipate quickly in water. Therefore, GPS does not work underwater and alternative methods like acoustic positioning systems are used for underwater navigation.
Maritime archaeologists are archaeologists who specialize in studying underwater cultural heritage sites, shipwrecks, submerged landscapes, and other underwater artifacts. They use specialized techniques and equipment to investigate and preserve these submerged sites.
