Chemical explosives may be low or high explosives. Low explosives, such as black gunpowder, actually burn- but at a very high speed. That burning produces a rapidly expanding gas. The gas exerts a push on things around it, and can propel bullets, break rock, etc. High explosives are unstable chemicals, usually in the nitrate or chlorate families. When enough energy is put into them, they react by dropping to a lower energy state. In doing that, they rapidly give up the stored chemical energy in the form of heat, formation of gasses, and blast. The exact chemical reaction varies from one explosive to another.
What else can I help you with?
In a typical aerial burst how many explosions take place What happens in each explosion?
In a typical aerial burst, a single explosion occurs. This explosion disperses the payload carried by the shell into multiple smaller bomblets or submunitions, creating the intended effect over a wider area.
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 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.
Nuclear explosion in Germany in 1990-1992?
There were no reports of a nuclear explosion in Germany between 1990-1992. Germany does not have a history of nuclear weapons testing and there have been no instances of nuclear explosions in the country during that time period.
If a man ate a peach pit sized shell full of gunpowder and a lit fuse would the explosion be noticeable?
Yes, the explosion would likely be noticeable and could potentially be dangerous. Gunpowder is highly combustible and can create a significant explosion when ignited. It is not safe to ingest or ignite gunpowder in any form.
What is Betelgeuse going to do when it dies?
Betelgeuse will die in a massive explosion called a supernova. When this happens it will appear brighter than the full moon.
Is it a huge explosion of a small explosion when a supernova happens?
It is yes
What is product explosion?
an explosion happens when reaction takes place very quickly.
What happens if a shiatsu eats chocolate?
explosion
What moon phase is visible during a lunar eclipse?
A lunar eclipse happens during a full moon
What happens to katniss in the explosion?
She loses her hearing in the ear facing the explosion, until she gets to the Capital and they fix it.
What is made during an explosion?
First you must know that fire needs fuel, oxygen, and heat. When this happens a lot of gases are released from the fuel. If this happens in a closed container the gases build up and store energy. When the container can't hold any more energy this is when an explosion occurs. Basicly an explosion is when a lot of energy is released.a explosion occurs when a time for a bomb is u or if gas or petrolatum leeks.In military explosion also occurs with the use of an EFP (explosively formed penetrator)
What happens when there's an explosion at a hotel?
Roomers are flying.
What happens when a children suffer a big explosion?
they die
What happens when you put heat and gas together?
You get an explosion.
What happens when a fusion reaction is uncontrolled?
fusion bomb explosion
What happens to used engine oil if mixed to acid?
an explosion
