To put it mildly, an EMP strike “neutralizes” the flow of electrons in anything that needs a flow of electrons to operate.
Your car battery will be neutralized. Your starter will be neutralized. Any and all electronics in any car will be neutralized. Motorcycles with kickstarters won’t work, the magneto will be zapped.
Anything and everything electronic, unless stored in a Farraday cage, or built to milspec stqandards regarding EMP’s, will not work, to include anything flying in the air.
(Look out below!)
The world will be flung back to the 1700’s in a second.
Oh yeah, I almost forgot. That includes everybody’s little laser sight on their personal defense weapons, too.
“To put it mildly, an EMP strike “neutralizes” the flow of electrons in anything that needs a flow of electrons to operate.”
THAT’S what you read about EMP??
EMP is a surge of electrons causing a temporary, read: a few milliseconds, spike in electricity. In no way does it have and ability to stop the flow of electrons.
The dumbing down of America continues, we don’t even know what electricity is anymore.
Neutralized? Seriously? I don’t think you understand electronics. You can drain a battery. Circuits that e aren’t energized at the time of the emp will not be affected if they have a minimum of grounding and protection.
EMP’s will almost certainly affect only energized circuits. They can’t create current flow in an open circuit.
I don’t think that an EMP will fry everything electronic- just everything “solid state”. I believe that planes such as the F-4s will still fly, anything based on tube technology is unaffected.
