when Soviets explode first atomic bomb
A hole made by a shell bomb.
Depends on where and how it hits. Flak shells, the type used for antiaircraft fire, were commonly fused to explode at a given altitude, not on impact. The idea was to have the shell explode near the aircraft, then the shrapnel from the shell would spread out in all directions. If close enough to an airplane this would damage it, perhaps enough to bring it down. A direct hit could blow the wing off a plane. On the other hand, there are instances on record where the gunners set the fuses for the wrong altitude, causing flak shells to shoot right through an airplane without exploding. In such a case the airplane might well make it home safely, provided nothing else went wrong.

A blind shell is a shell which contains no charge, or one which does not explode.
The inside of an artillery shell is filled with high explosives. At the tip of the shell there is a fuse. When the fuse hits a solid surface it ignites the main charge, causing the shell to explode.
No, it is not safe to microwave an egg in its shell as it can explode due to the build-up of steam inside.
yes the yolks will increase and outgrow the shell.
Well you could but it might get hot and explode!
An egg will explode by vinegar. Vinegar will also dissolve an egg shell leaving the egg to not only feel, but also look like rubber.
The activation energy for a fireworks shell to explode comes from the heat generated by the burning fuse. When the fuse ignites, it produces enough heat to trigger a chemical reaction inside the shell, leading to the explosion and release of colored sparks and effects.
It may. If the primer in the shell overheats, it will explode. That is what it is designed to do. This will cause the main charge of powder to explode. Don't even think about experimenting with this one. ====================================================== Cartridge shells are not designed to explode. When a cartridge is in a chamber of a rifle, and the primer is struck, it ignites the powder. The powder burns rapidly, but does not explode. Black powder has the capability to explode, smokeless powders do not. When a cartridge is in a fire, the powded burns rapidly. Because the cartridge is not held in a chamber, the force of the burning gasses is not contained, and will not project the projectile. The gasses dissipate. Still, not a good idea to do. limpetmine
Make sure you put a pin prick in the shell otherwise it will explode when microwaved.
Microwaving an egg can cause it to explode due to the build-up of steam inside the shell. This can be dangerous and create a mess in the microwave. It is not recommended to microwave a whole egg without first pricking the shell or removing it from the shell.
In New Super Mario Bros. it gives Mario a blue shell on his back which he can use similar to the turtles.In Mario Kart, the shell flies to the person in first place (unless it's you, in which case it will fly to 2nd place) and explode.
