Bombs and Explosive Materials

Explosives are neither good nor bad, they simply ARE. Each day in the US we use about 5 MILLION pounds of explosives for good purposes- mining, construction, demolition, etc. However, explosives are concentrated energy (about 1 million horsepower in one stick of dynamite). Used for bad purposes, used carelessly, or used by someone without the training and knowledge to use them safely, explosives can damage property and hurt or kill people.

• Hydrogen is explosive
• Ammonia when mixed with oxygen, it burns with a pale yellowish-green flame.
• At high temperature and in the presence of a suitable catalyst, ammonia is decomposed into its constituent elements. Ignition occurs when chlorine is passed into ammonia, forming nitrogen and hydrogen chloride; if chlorine is present in excess, then the highly explosive nitrogen trichloride (NCl3) is formed.

The three categories of high explosives are primary explosives, secondary explosives, and tertiary explosives. Primary explosives are very sensitive and are used to initiate a detonation. Secondary explosives are more stable and are commonly used in commercial and military applications. Tertiary explosives are less sensitive and are often used as propellants.

They use one material as a fuel, and a nitrate as the oxidizer. When enough external energy is donated to start the chemical reaction, the fuel and oxidizer react very quickly, which is an explosion.

Nuclear bombs have the potential to create extremely large explosions, depending on their size and design. The most powerful nuclear bomb ever detonated, the Tsar Bomba, had an explosive yield of about 50 megatons (equivalent to 50 million tons of TNT) and created a blast radius of over 20 miles.

Andrei Sakharov contributed to the Soviet Union's development of the atomic bomb because it was a priority for the Soviet government at the time to enhance national security and military capabilities. Sakharov later became a vocal advocate for nuclear disarmament and peace.

The bouncing bomb was developed in 1943 during World War II by British engineer Barnes Wallis. It was used in Operation Chastise in May 1943 by the Royal Air Force to disrupt German dams.

One that will not reliably detonate from heat/flame, but requires the energy of a donor explosive to detonate.

The major constituent of dynamite is nitroglycerin, which is an explosive compound. Nitroglycerin is typically mixed with an absorbent material like sawdust or clay to create a stable and safe-to-handle explosive compound.

Bleach keeps your clothes white by removing colors by oxidation. You can get more information about Bleach online at the Wikipedia. Once on the page, type "Bleach" into the search field at the top of the page and press enter to bring up the information.

One nuclear bomb has the capability to cause significant destruction to a city like New York, depending on the size and location of the blast. The extent of damage would also be influenced by factors such as the type of bomb, altitude of detonation, and prevailing weather conditions. The impact would likely be catastrophic, resulting in widespread devastation and loss of life.

I think that it generally means that something is superior, of great quality, or is greatly enjoyed by a person.

Blasting agents such as ANFO (ammonium nitrate/fuel oil) or emulsion explosives are commonly used in underground silver mining due to their good performance in confined spaces. These explosives are carefully engineered to provide the necessary energy to break the rock effectively while minimizing the risk of excessive damage. It's important to follow strict safety protocols and regulations when handling and using explosives in mining operations.

While there may be multiple ways of putting together a smart bomb, most of that information is unknown by anyone who does not develop them for military use. A smart bomb is primarily used by the military.

Some disadvantages of bomb calorimeters include their high cost, the required specialized training to operate them properly, and the limited range of samples that can be analyzed. Additionally, bomb calorimeters are typically slow to use compared to other analytical methods.

The development of the hydrogen bomb was led by a team of American scientists at the Los Alamos National Laboratory in the early 1950s. This team included physicists such as Edward Teller and Stanislaw Ulam. The successful test of the first hydrogen bomb took place in November 1952 at the Enewetak Atoll in the Pacific Ocean.

A flash bomb is an explosive device that produces a blinding flash of light and loud noise upon detonation. It is commonly used in tactical situations by law enforcement and military personnel to disorient or distract individuals. Flash bombs are designed to incapacitate without causing permanent harm.

An atomic bomb uses nuclear fission or fusion to release a massive amount of energy. This is achieved by either splitting (fission) or combining (fusion) atomic nuclei, resulting in a powerful explosion.

The Boston Marathon bombing in 2013 was carried out using pressure cooker bombs, which were made of explosive materials such as black powder, nails, and ball bearings. These bombs were designed to maximize casualties in the crowded area where they were detonated.

The first use of explosive matter was in the 9th century and it was the use of black powder in the mining tunnels of China. The explosion of the material is a chemical reaction to the compound containing -NO2, -ONO2 and -NHNO2.

No, a piezoelectric crystal generates an electrical current when compressed, but it does not produce enough heat to ignite gunpowder on its own. Gunpowder ignition typically requires a small spark or flame with sufficient heat to initiate the combustion process.

Phosphorus is used in explosives because of its ability to react with oxygen very rapidly, releasing a large amount of energy in the form of heat and light. This reaction creates a highly exothermic process that helps in the rapid combustion and explosion of the material.

A neutron bomb has the beneficial effect of neutralizing enemy combatants without causing extensive damage to infrastructure. However, it can also have harmful effects such as long-term health risks from exposure to radiation and the potential for escalation of conflict due to its controversial nature.
