CITP Test 5 100% Correct Verified 2024 Version

CITP Test 5 | 100% Correct | Verified | 2024 Version What are the effects of an explosion? - Thermal Effect Blast Pressure Effect Fragmentation Effect T/F: Thermal effecs are generally the most damaging of the three primary effects? - False; Fragmentation is usually the most damaging. What is important to know about thermal effect high explosives? - They produce higher temperature thermal effects but for a shorter duration. What is important to know about thermal effect low explosives? - They produce lower temperature thermal effects but for a longer duration. What is the blast pressure effect? - When very hot gases are formed in approximately 1/10,000 of a second expand out from the point of detonation at supersonic velocities, up to 20,000 mph. What are the two distinct phases of the blast pressure effect? - The Positive Phase and Negative Phase. T/F: The negative phase is typically three times longer than the positive phase but less intense. - True. The four types of injuries sustained during a blast are: - Primary Blast Injury: Direct effects of blast upon the body Secondary Blast Injury: Propelled fragmentationTertiary Blast Injury: Casualty's body is propelled against a stationary object Qauternary Blast Injury: Being crushed or burns. ___________ blast injury is the most common cause of death in explosions. - Secondary Blast Injury (Fragmentation) IED's may have precut/preformed objects (ie ball bearings, hexagonal nuts, nails, etc) placed within or along the device to serve what purpose? - To form fragmentation when the IED detonates. What is primary fragmentation? - Fragments produced by the IED or explosive container. What is secondary fragmentation? - Object propelled from arounCITP Test 5 | 100% Correct | Verified | 2024 Version What are the effects of an explosion? - Thermal Effect Blast Pressure Effect Fragmentation Effect T/F: Thermal effecs are generally the most damaging of the three primary effects? - False; Fragmentation is usually the most damaging.
