Animation of an atom bomb blast. Arrows pointing away and down show ground impact along with formation of shock wave. Chalk board drawing shows static over pressure versus dynamic pressure from blast. The overpressure shockwave pattern is shown. Chalk board animation shows a shock wave destroying a house and tree. Animation demonstrating the weight of burst versus the distance affecting shock wave. Animation showing angle of the blast changing and affecting pressure to target. Low angle blast is shown as only 5 psi. The complex shape of a shock wave shown in drawing.
