Around minute 38 a gentleman states that Plutonium is more energetic than uranium - well, actually, in the early weapons plutonium was easier to use efficiently in a bomb, and is still prefered by bomb makers, because for complex reason uranium is more prone to pre detonation, but uranium actually contains more energy in its fission chain than plutonium. Its not a huge difference - but if a breeder reactor could do a 100% burn on a uranium fuel load, it'll develop more energy than it would with a plutonium fuel load. Theres not a noticable difference with a light water reactor doing a 1 or 2% burn though, refueling is done for other reasons than how much energy remains in the fuel rods.
@@packrat2113 a plastic pipe bomb can't build pressure like a steel one, and the plastic is vaporized by the explosion. Steel builds pressure and catastrophically fails, causing amplified blast and also fragmentation.
Just annoyed when they showed the bikini Baker Abomb test as the first Hbomb test. The former was an underwater detonation of 20kT whereas the Ivy Mike device was about 10MT and exploded from a small island.

If you made an airtight room about 20' by 20' and blew regular bread flour into it , then let off about 10lbs of C4 or even just 20lbs of tannerite , i'll bet you would get a bigger explosion than most bombs the air force has . The largest controlled blast comes from a dust explosion . It doesn't take much to get a huge blast . The flour takes up 100% of the space involved so the chain reaction of the particles goes off closer together to create a bigger one time explosion . The larger the space between the particles the smaller the blast . And it's awesome .
They have built that. It's called a fuel air bomb. Dust explosion accidents are the natural version of that. And yes a 5lb bag of flour has the energy to rapidly disassemble a small house.
The depiction of the guntype uranium bomb in this video is wrong. In reality a hollow cylinder of U235 is fired on a smaller cylinder to complete the critical mass. This is because the smaller part was surrounded by a neutron reflector to improve the reaction when the parts are combined. If the bigger uranium mass would be surrounded by the neutron reflector, there would be a greater possibility of predetonation.
20:43 at the exact moment that he begins to say "self" as in "find yourself near an IED"... look in the foreground, if you can pause it at that exact moment it looks like there's something else going on.
Actually, its definition of an explosion is overly narrow. Its definition applies to stereotypical explosions, a chemical explosion. There are also mechanical explosions, and one or two other types as well I think. Mechanical explosions basically involves stress being applied to an object, which suddenly releases that stress in a burst of energy (similar to a rubber band snapping).
My concern with those is now you have basically a few giant bean bags holding up your building. I guess it's designed to hold just long enough to get people out, but the video makes it sound like it's stable when it doesn't seem like it would be.
You are correct at the last minute they realized that 100 megs the plane could never outrun the shock. They changed out the uranium tamper for a lead one. allowing a yield of 50 megs. The the pilot was still injured.
you should really look for better sources of information. with some more knowledge you can easily see how stupid and wrong much of the content of this "documentation" is.
Recently I have heard many British talking heads measure lengths in football pitches.

It's never told both cities that the bombs hit were military in nature. Arms manufacturing plants, ammo & weapons of all kinds. Plus it held 1,000 of J-pan soldiers.

The first hydrogen bomb footage is wrong it it meant to be ivy mike. The footage you showed was from operation crossroads shot baker which by chance was the same power at the hiroshima bomb. Ivy mike was a 10MT surface detonation.
Something is missing from your definition of an explosion : the shock wave. This is what differentiates a pile of gunpowder burning quickly from a confined charge actually exploding. Also, black-powder firearms, especially pistols, were mostly subsonic. A bullet is propelled faster than the speed of sound in a high-velocity rifle; but not in smaller or older firearms.
@ukyo1975 - well, kind of. Gunpowder (often called black powder) is a mixture of carbon, sulphur and potassium nitrate (saltpetre). Smokeless powder was a different chemical substance; in turn, it was replaced by cordite; which has, in its own turn, been replaced by modern explosive charges.
