Bombs and Explosive Materials

Destroying things, killing people, etc.

General Douglas MacArthur believed that the United States should consider military action against China during the Korean War, particularly after Chinese troops intervened in support of North Korea. He advocated for a more aggressive strategy, which included the possibility of bombing Chinese bases and supply lines. MacArthur's stance was controversial and led to tensions with President Harry S. Truman, ultimately resulting in his dismissal in 1951.

Faster than you can blink. About 1/18,000ths of a second.

Bombs, cannon and machine guns

No- TNT was created long before he was born. However, he DID discover a process to make acetone by fermentation. Acetone is used to produce cordite, another military explosive.

It depends on the volcano.

Charcoal, saltpeter (sodium nitrate), and sulphur.

Couple of problems with a simple answer- first, there was no ONE grenade. The British, Americans, French and Germans all used different grenades- and each country had several different types of grenades. Second, inflation and rates of exchange have changed what money was worth (then and now). During WW 1, a worker might make $1-$5 a day, so a dollar was worth more then.

The closest I can get to a simple answer- the British Mills Bomb (hand grenade) was produced for about 6 shiilings each. A shilling was 1/20th of a British Pound, and at today's rate of exhange, 6 shillings would be about 48 cents in US coins.

Ramses II was a great military commander like his father, a warrior king who waged successful wars against Libya and Nubia and the Hittites. The Hittites were an Indo-European people who entered Mesopotamia and destroyed the Babylonian empire. The capital of the Hittite kingdom was Hattusha, now in modern Turkey. The Hittites fought Egypt for control of North Syria. The greatest achievement of Ramses was the capture of the Syrian city of Kadesh in July 1274 BC from the Hittites, which had been lost during the chaotic reign of the Heretic King Akhenaten. Scenes from this famous Battle of Kadesh, in which over 5,000 chariots were involved, are depicted in the Rock Temple of Ramses at Abu Simbel. Ramses eventually established a treaty with the Hittite Empire, although it took some years to take effect.

Easy, just go to zen mode

Difficult to give a simple answer, as there is more than one 1000 lb bomb. The basic Mk 83 "Dumb" bomb is ABOUT $1,700. However, they are sometimes outfitted with a high drag tail section, which will increase costs. They may also be fitted with guidance systems to convert them to the JDAMS "Smart" bomb- a precision guided weapon. THAT package adds about $21,000 to each bomb.

Probably a potting shed in the back garden of a home in London.

No, but they could pick up an odor and i would avoid placement around silks, furs, or expensive garments that need dry cleaning. On a side note though, I advise against foggers since it is almost impossible to get enough concentration for a complete kill, there is no residual and they are cost prohibitive.

Yes, bath bombs are designed to dissolve in water when placed in a bathtub. They contain ingredients that react with the water, creating a fizzing and bubbling effect while releasing fragrances, colors, and moisturizing properties.

It is the abbreviation of tri-nitro-toulene.

Impossible to say- there have been only a very small number produced, and those came from the budget that was funded to develop the MOAB. The guidance package used in the MOAB is about $20,000 each, plus the cost of the MOAB itself.

Two possibilities: Only 'Dan Cooper' knew, or only the FBI knows. If the FBI recovered the briefcase with the 'bomb', they would likely keep this information secret to aid in investigating suspects, which they are still doing.

The fact there is no mention in public records of the whereabouts or disappearance of the briefcase with the 'bomb' could indicate: A. The FBI has it, or B. Cooper dumped it out the rear door of the plane (possibly a while) before he jumped, and it was never found.

I think B is more likely, since Cooper seemed to be a careful planner, and he would want to eliminate as much evidence as possible.

Dynamite was the name chosen by Alfred Nobel for his creation- an explosive made by soaking nitrogycerin into an aborbent type of earth. This was MUCH safer to transport and use than pure nitroglycerin. The name was chosen to portray energy- kind of catchy, huh?

In World War II, a bazooka team was two men, one carrying and loading the ammunition, one firing. The bazooka rockets weighed about 3.5 lbs. each, making about 10 rockets the practical maximum for the ammunition carrier. As with everything else, though, the GI's adapted their techniques to the prevailing situations.

You can not use explosives for lawn aeration. This process should only be done with a lawn aerator. To use explosives could be incredibly dangerous and most likely illegal in your area.

Well, if it is a typical pipe bomb, it is best to use a metal pipe with very tightly screwed in metal caps. The inside consists of some sort of explosive, like a compressed flammable gas, gunpowder, or a plastic explosive like c4 or TNT. It can be detonated by a fuse or electrical wire. When the material inside of the pipe catches fire, a chemical reaction occurs, and large amounts of heat energy are released. Pressure quickly builds up inside of the pipe, causing it to expand and explode very rapidly. It is extremely dangerous to make or obtain these because the explosive material is usually not very stable, and any pipe material is bound to cause some sort of friction that may ignite the bomb. Not to mention the fact that pipe bombs are illegal in most countries.
