I hear about the strength of bombs being described in terms of TNT so I was wondering if it’s actually equivalent. Excluding any side effects like poisoning or radiation, if you detonate a bomb, then simultaneously detonate two bombs with half the strength, would they be the same?

Me and my friends used to remove the gunpowder from fireworks and make bigger booms with film canisters. TNT is just gunpowder packed up right so it blows up all at once. The difference is about fuel and how fast it reacts once ignited. Some fuel like in nukes reacts in an instant, whereas TNT would be a tad slower. So yes you can do the same, but be very careful as its unpredictable how big the boom will be and which direction stuff will fly.
