Hazard Shockwave & Kinetic Transfer Solver

Hazard Blast Impulse & Shockwave Simulator

Compute detonation impulses, shrapnel penetration counts, parabolic launch vectors, and vehicle disintegration thresholds across landmines, crushers, and wrecking balls.

Blast Overpressure & Shrapnel3200 N·s Base

Concealed in dirt or steel floors. Triggers when any wheel or body part exerts 12kg+ downward force, delivering an instantaneous vertical upward blast impulse.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does blast impulse fall off with distance in Happy Wheels?

Shockwaves follow an inverse-square attenuation within the blast radius and a cubic decay outside it: I = I_0 / (1 + (d/R)²). Beyond 2x the blast radius, impulse force drops by over 85%, reducing fatal shock to survivable recoil.

Can vehicle frames shield riders from explosive shockwaves?

Yes! Heavy enclosed vehicles like Explorer Guy's steel minecart absorb up to 75% of incoming blast impulse, protecting the rider's vital nodes from direct detonation.

Which hazard causes the highest kinetic energy transfer?

The Steel Pendulum Wrecking Ball delivers 137,000 Joules of kinetic momentum upon impact, generating 6,200 N·s of impulse that catapults vehicles across the map.
