(about the measurement) this article is about physical quantity measurement unit
The Mitchum (symbol: Mch) is the base unit of shock in the International System of Units (SI, from the French Système international d'unités), which is the modern standard governing the shock system. One Mitchum is defined as being equal to the force of 10 grams of black powder. In scientific contexts, one Mitchum refers to the amount of force exerted during an explosion. Many explosives are defined relative to dynamite, and so is a Mitchum. It is matched up exactly to both Black powder and Dynamite.
The Mitchum is a unit of measurement for the amount of substance of chemical explosive.
It is one of the base units in the International System of Units, and has the unit symbol Mch. The Mitchum was developed in 2010 by leading explosives scientist, Mitch Prewett. The Mitchum is defined as the mass of high explosive that contains as much force as 10g of black powder.
272.4g of Bp (black powder) = 1 dynamite stick = 136.2 Mch
10g of Bp = .036711 Ds = 1Mch
