Effects on an explosions force based on varied gas densities?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on finding an equation to quantify how an explosion's force dissipates based on varying gas densities, specifically the density of environmental gases. Participants seek clarification on the term "explosions force," which is defined as pressure in this context. The conversation emphasizes the need for precise definitions to facilitate accurate responses. There is a reiteration of the importance of understanding the specific gas density being referenced. Overall, the thread aims to gather insights on the relationship between gas density and explosion dynamics.

I'm looking for an equation that can give me the the amount an explosions force dissipates based on varied gas densities. I've already posted this in r/AskPhysics, r/AskScience, and r/Physics, and thought posting it here might give it better exposure. Oh, and before someone asks, this isn't homework!

Please define "explosions force".
Which gas density do you mean? Gas of the environment?

Explosions force as in the pressure, and yes, gas of the environment.
 

Thread 'The Physics of unloading sand from a barge'

I think it's easist first to watch a short vidio clip I find these videos very relaxing to watch .. I got to thinking is this being done in the most efficient way? The sand has to be suspended in the water to move it to the outlet ... The faster the water , the more turbulance and the sand stays suspended, so it seems to me the rule of thumb is the hose be aimed towards the outlet at all times .. Many times the workers hit the sand directly which will greatly reduce the water...
