    What Are the Effects of Shockwaves on Human Safety and Proximity?

    Hi could someone tell me a little more about shockwaves? I have looked everywhere but cannot find anywhere that shows explosive yield to blast radius and the dangers to human of being at different proximities to a blast. I know the closer you are to one the more likely you are to suffer internal...

    Temperature related to yield or type of explosion? Nuclear vs conventional.

    Are the temperatures produced from a nuclear reaction special in anyway? If a 20 kiloton nuke is producing hundreds of thousands of degrees at it's center, would the same ballpark be true of 20,000 tons of TNT, which is roughly equal in yield?
