What is secondary high explosives?
One that will not reliably detonate from heat/flame, but requires the energy of a donor explosive to detonate.
The three categories of explosives are?
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.
Which explosives are very sensitive to heat and shock?
TNT (trinitrotoluene) and nitroglycerin are known to be very sensitive to heat and shock. These explosives can detonate spontaneously if exposed to high temperatures or sudden impacts. Special care must be taken when handling these materials to prevent accidental detonation.
How do you safely detonate ammonia nitrate?
Ammonium nitrate should only be detonated by trained professionals following proper safety procedures. It is extremely dangerous and can cause massive explosions if mishandled. It is best to contact local authorities or a licensed explosives disposal company to safely handle and detonate ammonium nitrate.
What type of explosive is the least sensitive explosives?
Several of the plastic explosives based on RDX, such as Composition C4 are relatively insensitive. And there are specialized explosives developed for use in deep oil well bores that stand up well to very high temperatures and pressures. However, at normal temperatures and pressures, the LEAST sensitive group of products are probably blasting agents, such as a mix of ammonium nitrate and #2 diesel fuel. Unless compacted, these will not reliably detonate from a blasting cap, and require a high explosive "booster" to donate enough energy to cause detonation.
Full form of a-bomb?
An atomic bomb uses nuclear fission at the atomiclevel to detonate several tons of explosives.
Why explosives are dangerous to human being?
Because the energy released when they detonate can destroy property, and injure or kill people.
What is secondary high explosives?
One that will not reliably detonate from heat/flame, but requires the energy of a donor explosive to detonate.
How much explosives were in the Fat Man?
5600 lbs of Composition B to detonate nuclear material which had a yield of 22 kilotons

What is a blaster?
It can have several meanings- one is a person that uses explosives for construction and mining.
What are the three categories of explosives?
Primary and secondary explosives. The definitions of these are rather loose, however typically primary explosives will detonate when ignited (example: mercury fulkminate), and secondary explosives require a shockewave to detonate (example: TNT). The most accurate definition is when used in the context of an "explosive train" whereby a fuse ignites the primary high explosive which undergoes deflagration to detonation transition, this detonation produces a shockwave which is used to initiate a secondary high explosive. So explosive compounds are classified into primary or secondary based there primary use.
How do you get dynamite on Nabooti Island?
The explosives in the Diamond Mine are left of the elevator, as many as you need. You detonate it with the sparking switch (turn it off before moving exlosives).
Explosive is widely used by the military and is one of the least sensitive explosives?
Composition C-4. It consists of RDX in a plasticizer, and takes significant shock to detonate.
What are low explosives Give any two examples of it?
Low explosives are materials that deflagrate (burn rapidly) rather than detonate. They are typically less powerful and generate less pressure than high explosives. Two examples of low explosives are black powder and smokeless powder.
Which explosives are very sensitive to heat and shock?
TNT (trinitrotoluene) and nitroglycerin are known to be very sensitive to heat and shock. These explosives can detonate spontaneously if exposed to high temperatures or sudden impacts. Special care must be taken when handling these materials to prevent accidental detonation.
