This is a compilation of published detonation velocities for various high explosive compounds. Detonation velocity is the speed with which the detonation shock wave travels through the explosive.
TNT equivalent is a convention for expressing energy, typically used to describe the energy released in an explosion.The ton of TNT is a unit of energy defined by convention to be 4.184 gigajoules (1 gigacalorie), [1] which is the approximate energy released in the detonation of a metric ton (1,000 kilograms) of TNT.
The unified mile was meant to define the suitable distance between inns. After the 1889 metric conversion the Swedish mil is defined as exactly 10 kilometers. nymil – "new mile" from 1889, 10 km exactly. Commonly used to this day, only referred to as mil. kyndemil – the distance a torch will last, approx 16 km (9.9 mi).
The report identified two major sectors that had not yet been metricated being: retailing of weighed out foods and many sales by length, volume or area [metricated in 2000] and speed limits and road distance, height and weight signs [not metricated, expect for weight and height signs metricated in 2015].
