Thirteen bombs hit British ships without detonating. Due to the uncertainty associated with detonating explosives, a number of possible scenarios were envisaged. The experiment consisted of detonating two atomic bombs to test their effectiveness against ships. A suicide bomber detonating a bomb next to her vehicle followed. He is alerted to the threat of a nuclear bomb detonating in the U.S. Training activities included remotely detonating an Improvised Explosive Device (IED) and rappelling from a building. They were said to have dropped five bombs, four detonating. Torpedoes would hit their target without detonating. Only one of these bombs went off, only partially detonating. The protests did not stop the U.S. from detonating the bomb. The higher the octane number, the more compression the fuel can withstand before detonating (igniting). Another D3A came from the stern and dropped a bomb detonating off the port side. White residents attacked black homes&colon; breaking windows, starting fires, and detonating bombs. The bomb works by detonating in mid-air. The torpedo has discs inside and are filled with detonating powder.
