The energy for the grain explosion comes from the dust's minimum explosive concentration (MEC), a measurement of particle size and energy nature. Most explosions occur at grain transfer points.

A dynamite explosion converts chemical energy to?

Mechanical energy (Blast waves) and thermal energy (Heat)


What is the difference between an explosion and combustion?

combustion is purely a chemical reaction, need not to be natural while explosion is naturally chemical energy. explosion requires expansion of volume while this is not necessary in case of combustion.


What occurs when the pressure of an explosion expands and tears the casing of the explosives?

When the pressure of an explosion expands and tears the casing of the explosives, it releases the stored energy rapidly, resulting in the explosion. The sudden burst of energy can cause significant damage to surrounding objects and individuals due to the high-pressure wave and flying debris. The tear in the casing allows the explosion to propagate freely, amplifying its destructive force.


When a fire cracker explodes stored chemical energy turns into sound and light enery. What other type of energy is also released during this transformation?

During a firecracker explosion, in addition to sound and light energy, thermal energy is also released due to the rapid chemical reactions that take place. This thermal energy contributes to the heat emitted during the explosion.


Which form of energy is not produced when chemical energy stored in fireworks is transformed?

Nuclear energy is not produced when the chemical energy stored in fireworks is transformed. The main forms of energy released during a firework explosion are light, heat, and sound energy.

What does cow energy intake come from?

The feed it eats (grass, hay, grain, silage). Grain and silage is higher in energy (in the form of fats) than other feed sources.


The total amount of energy before an explosion is the amount of energy after an explosion?

yes


What energy transformation of explosion of dynamite?

The explosion of dynamite involves a rapid release of chemical energy stored in the dynamite molecules. This chemical energy is converted into thermal and kinetic energy during the explosion. The thermal energy causes the surroundings to heat up, while the kinetic energy produces the force that results in the explosion.


What form of energy is a explosion?

The source for the most common types of explosion is chemical energy. The resulting energy is a combination of heat energy, sound energy, and mechanical energy.


What is the energy output of a supernova explosion?

The energy output of a supernova explosion is equivalent to the energy produced by the sun over its entire lifetime.

How can energy be stored in grain?

Energy can is stored in many grains. It is in the grain itself and released by eating , which converts it to energy. Or by turning it to to gas by refining etc.


Other than radiation is a nuclear explosion more destructive than a conventional explosion with the same yield and is the way the energy is being released portioned differently in a nuclear explosion?

Yes. an X kiloton of Nuclear bomb vs X kiloton of RDX/TNT. Nuclear Explosion is more destructive because apart from Shock wave and cloud of fire it will make the entire region Radio Active which will not only destroy the life and life forms currently present but will ruin that area for ages to come.


What causes grain elevator explosions?

Grain elevator explosions are most likely caused by the ignition (through friction or static electricity) of grain dust that floats in the air within the grain elevators. This same type of explosion can be found in soap factories and candy factories.


How can we calculate the increase in kinetic energy of the pieces during the explosion?

To calculate the increase in kinetic energy of the pieces during an explosion, you can use the formula: Change in kinetic energy final kinetic energy - initial kinetic energy. This involves determining the initial and final velocities of the pieces and plugging them into the formula. The increase in kinetic energy will give you an idea of the energy released during the explosion.


What kind of energy conversions takes place in a nuclear bomb explosion?

In a nuclear bomb explosion, the energy conversion involves the release of nuclear energy through the process of nuclear fission or fusion. This energy is then converted into thermal energy (heat), light energy (flash of light), and mechanical energy (shockwave). The explosion results from the rapid release of this energy.
