The measured, pure heat output of a gram of TNT is only 2724 J, but this is not the important value for explosive blast effect calculations.
32.
Unlike the high explosives ( HE ) used in traditional ordnance, the pyrotechnic charge produces a subsonic deflagration, not a supersonic detonation, minimizing the blast effects.
33.
He was there to observe the effect of radiant heating in igniting structural materials, and had also designed apparatus to monitor the blast effect of the explosions.
34.
In Friday night's airstrike, the two warplanes fired laser-guided munitions fitted with delayed fuses _ meaning they penetrated the building before detonating to minimize the external blast effect.
35.
The pair of F-15E Strike Eagles fired laser-guided munitions fitted with delayed fuses _ meaning they penetrated the two-story building before detonating to minimize the external blast effect.
36.
In order to guarantee a kill at such high speeds and in the thin air, a large warhead was needed in order to have a sufficient blast effect.
37.
In Friday night's airstrike, two F-15E Strike Eagles fired laser-guided munitions fitted with delayed fuses _ meaning they penetrated the building before detonating to minimize the external blast effect.
38.
But he says eye damage is about the only side effect of laser use; conventional weapons are more likely to miss their targets, and their blast effects cover larger areas.
39.
Observers reported the larger blast effect of these bombs which perhaps is an indicator they contained new mixtures . 247 fires were recorded with major incidents in Islington and Dagenham.
40.
:What would be the blast effect at normal atmospheric pressure versus the blast effect in space, of the same explosive set off at the same distance from the same surface?
