b) A' =18m2 •

10-2. a) Actual distances from ground zero = 1130, 1420, 1790,2430 m.

Scaled slant range = 725 mjkg1i3 ; Scaled travel time = 1.59 s; Actual travel time = 2.72, 3.43, 4.32, 5.86 s. Actual duration = 580, 730,925, 1250 ms

M, = 1.159, peak side-on p• = 405 mbars, P,.r = 940 mbars, P.,. 8 = 110 mbars, IX = 1.5. b) Overpressure-time curves are.similar to those of Figure 10-2.

10-4. This exercise concerns a diffraction type situation. The initial peak reflected overpressure is 940 mbars. The blast duration depends on the explosion selected for study. The various Ioad curves resemble those ofFigures 10-4, 10-5, 10-6, and 10-7. The equivalent triangular pulse resembles that of Figure 10-10 (a). Answers to Tutorial Exercises 229

10-6. This exercise concerns a drag type Ioad situation. The Ioad curve resembles that of Figure 10-9 (b). Equivalent triangular pulse resembles that of Figure 10-10 (b).

11-10. a) The peak overpressure criterion for blast darnage is applicable to situations in which blast duration is appreciably Ionger than the critical time for inflicting target damage. In general, this occurs with !arge explosions such as nuclear explosions or ones of a !arge store of chemical explosives. b) The "square wave" overpressure of Table 11-1 corresponds to the minimum overpressure for inflicting darnage by !arge explosions with their long durations. Smaller explosions in general must show overpressures considerably greater than this in order for the inflicted impulse to exceed the minimum darnage impulse within a relatively short duration time.

11-12. a) Diameter ofthe crater, by equation (1-4), would be about 30m. b) Indicated darnage overpressure would be about 500 mbars and correspond to a scaled distance (Table XI) of about 3.8 mfkg 1' 3 . Actual distance would probably extend to about 3.8 x (50,000) 1' 3 = 140m. c) Darnage overpressures extend over a very wide range, from about 100 mbars for personnel being knocked down to about 2000 mbars for Jung damage. Correspond• ing scaled distances (Table XI-A) are 9.7 and 1.5 mfkg 1' 3 . The actual distances extend to about 55 m for Jung darnage and to about 350m for knocking down personnel. d) The indicated damages could probably be inflicted by an overpressure of about 100 mbars. Corresponding scaled distance is 9.7 mfkg 1' 3. The actual distance is about 350m from the explosion. Tables

Table XVI Conversion factors

The Systeme International d'Unites (designated SI in all Ianguages) is a coherent system based on seven defined units from which all other units are derived. Basic SI units are:

Unit Name Symbol length metre m mass kilogram kg time second s current flow ampere A temperature kelvin K Iurtlinous intensity candela cd amount of substance mole mol

Derived SI units include: volume stere (m 3) m3 velocity metres per second m/s acceleration metres per second per second m/s2 force newton (kg-m/s 2) N energy (kg-m 2/s2) J power watt (J/s) w pressure pascal (N/m2) Pa Tables 261

Table XVI (Contd.) Both SI metric units and working metric units are used here. Conversion factors for working metric units to SI metric units are:

To Convert from Working Metric Unit SI Metric Unit Working to SI Units litre stere divide by 1000 bar pascal multiply by 100,000 gramsfcubic centimetre kg/m3 multiply by 1,000 grams/litre kg/m3 multiply by 1 degrees kelvin add 273 bar-litre joule multiply by 100

English units such as the foot and the pound as used in older Iiterature can be converted to metric units as follows:

To Convert from English Unit Metric Unit English to SI Units foot metre multiply by 0.3048 foot metre divide by 3.281 cubic foot stere divide by 35.315 gallon (U.S.) litre multiply by 3.785 degree Fahrenheit kelvin add 460 and divide by 1.8 miles per hour metres per second multiply by 0.477 knots metres per second multiply by 0.5144 atmosphere bars multiply by 1.01325 psi bars divide by 14.5 psi millibars multiply by 6.895 foot-pound joule multiply by 1.356 joule multiply by 4.184 pound (mass) kilogram multiply by 0.436 pound (mass) kilogram divide by 2.205 pounds per cubic foot grams per litre multiply by 16.018

Computations usually proceed most easily by first converting individual quantities into SI metric units. Reference: Mechtly, E. M., The International Sy$tem ofUnits, Physical Constants and Gonversion Factors, National Aeronautics and Space Administration, Washington, D.C. (1969). Index
