An "Explosive Charge" refers to a quantity of explosive material designed to produce a significant amount of energy in a short time. This energy release can create a powerful shockwave, resulting in an explosion. Explosive charges are commonly used in various applications, including construction, demolition, and military operations. The composition of an explosive charge can vary, but it typically includes a primary explosive, which initiates the reaction, and a secondary explosive, which amplifies the explosion. Safety measures are crucial when handling explosive charges to prevent accidental detonation and ensure proper usage in controlled environments, such as mining or demolition.
