How A Nuclear Blast Or An Atomic Bomb Kills by groundnutoil(m): 4:11pm On Jun 27, 2015 |
This thread is to shade more light on my Oga sile12 thread on front page and what really happens when u are caught in a nuclear blast(god forbid bad thing ) Read and learn anyone in the blast area or ground zero will be vaporized or carbonized supersonic shockwaves coming from ground zero will fling you off walls like you were nothing but paper doll, breaking your bones that take care of your internal organs radioactive gamma rays, that can pass through walls, will attack the cells of the human body people beyond the blast site will be skinned literally by the scorching heat and radioactive shockwaves and let's not forget: buildings collapsing on you fire burning people trapped in the buildings shrapnel from glass, wood and concrete blasted by the shockwaves if you are unlucky enough to be alive after getting caught in the blast, you'd be very thirsty. drinking water will trigger a breakdown in your internal organs. but of course, you didn't know that. so you'd drink any kind of water you'd find. if you can't find one and if you're lucky enough, there will be rain and you'd be thankful enough to drink it. unfortunately, rain water from a nuclear bomb site is radioactive and therefore, poisonous stress mental breakdown loss of natural resources necessary for industrial competitiveness Also to give a little more insight on how radiation work s if u get too much of it Lets say you get 7 Gray of ionizing radiation. That is enough to kill you, on average, even with good and immediate medical treatment. Radiation is just particles, either massed particles like protons or neutrons, or massless ones like photons, aka light. In the case of photons, what we call radiation (in the bad for you sense) is just photons with way more energy than something like visible light. A visible light photon has an energy of 1.5-3.5 eV; a gamma ray (bad radiation) has an energy of 200,000-3,000,000 eV. Getting 7 Gray of whole-body radiation means that every kilogram of your body has been exposed to as much as 200,000,000,000,000 of these dangerous photons. Because the photons have so much energy they are "ionizing radiation". The photon goes shooting though your body, missing a lot of stuff because photons are small and atoms are mostly empty space. But eventually the photon crashes into something, either an electron or an atom's nucleus, and it gets blown out of the atom. Suddenly the atom is no longer a chilled out atom, making up a molecule. It's now an ion, and it can't be part of the molecule any more because it has a charge. The molecule breaks. Maybe that molecule was a strand of DNA. Maybe it was a hemoglobin protein in a red blood cell, trying to carry oxygen. Maybe it was a molecule of water, and now there's super reactive hydrogen and hydroxide ions inside a cell, looking for the first thing to react with. You're exposed to radiation all the time. Your cells have ways of fixing it, including killing the cell because the damage is too great. Not a big deal at low rates, your body makes new cells, everything works out. But not when each kilogram of your body sees trillions of individual radiation events. Your body only has trillions of cells. Literally every single cell is exposed to hundreds of ionizing particles by itself. So in the end, too many of your cells are too broken and can't be repaired. You are the sum of your cells, and when enough of them die, so do you. Not my own work. May u never encounter such in life Have a nice day folks 2 Likes |
