The title basically summarizes this,and what Modern Day weapon/explosive could this be compared to?
 
Physics news on Phys.org
1 gram of TNT releases ~4kj of energy. 100 grams is probably in the same ballpark as a hand grenade.

So I know that electrons are fundamental, there's no 'material' that makes them up, it's like talking about a colour itself rather than a car or a flower.

Thanks
