What are the hazards of a fmu-139 fuse?
As with most fuses for the Mk 80 series bombs, the fuze has a substantial explosive booster (about 1.5 ounces of tetryl) capable of causing close range casualties on its own. Arming times are in-flight selectable, but the functioning delay must be set during weapon assembly. There are three arming times (2.6, 5.5, and 10.0 seconds) and four functioning delay settings (10, 25, and 60 milliseconds, and instantaneous). Only 2.6/60, 2.6/25, 2.6/10, and 2.6/inst high drag arm/delay switch positions are authorized for Navy/Marine Corps use. The low drag arm time switch should always be in the X position. The low drag arm time rotary switch is positioned at X for shipping, storage, and all FFCS (fuze function control set) use.
What country had the hydrogen bomb during the cold war?
There were actually many, the Soviet Union, People's Republic of China, United Kindom, I believe France, and the United States. In addition, Israel was also widely believed to have developed or received hydrogen bombs from the United States both now and today.
Is white phosphorus in smoke incendiary or atomic and nuclear warheads?
White phosphorus is often used in smoke grenades and artillery shells to create smoke screens on the battlefield, making it an incendiary substance. It is not used in atomic or nuclear warheads where the main destructive force comes from nuclear fission or fusion reactions.
What are under water bombs called?
Under water bombs are called naval mines. Under water bombs are used to destroy surface ships or submarines.

Where was the first nuclear bomb set off?
US, July 16, 1945, Trinity site, NM, in what is now White Sands Missile Range
Do cherry bombs exhaust change mpg?
Cherry Bombs are mufflers that do not contain baffles and thus produce less back-pressure in the exhaust system than a conventional muffler. This lower back-pressure allows the exhaust system to scavenge more of the combustion gases from the cylinder while the exhaust valve is open. On the intake stroke the cylinder is at a lower pressure and contains less by-products of combustion and thus is able to take in a greater volume of the air/fuel mix. Since less energy is used to compress combustion byproducts and more fuel is available to produce energy the result is a more efficient conversion of energy per crankshaft revolution. It should be noted that if your exhaust system has a catalytic converter or many bends, the addition of a baffle free muffler may not have a noticeable effect on the exhaust back-pressure when measured at the exhaust valve (where back-pressure has the most effect).
The EGR system is used to lower combustion temperatures and thus reduce the oxides of nitrogen (NO) present in your exhaust. When you lower the back-pressure below the manufacturer's design level you change the calibration of the EGR system which may raise the level of NO in your exhaust. NO is a component of smog and acid rain. Higher combustion temperatures can also lead to preignition, commonly called spark knock, which can damage your engine.

What are the pros and cons of explosives?
Pros- Flares, distress signals at sea can save lives
- Areospace, is designed to save astronauts lives if there is a problem with the spaceship
- Mining and quarrying, minerals make up our everyday things e.g phones, TV ect
Cons- Bombs and weapons can kill people
- destruction
Thats all I can think off.... Hope it helps!
