	The '''exposure''' is a measurement of how much of the explosion is blocked by blocks. It ranges from 0 (when the explosion is entirely blocked) to 1 (when there are no obstructions).

	An '''explosion''' is a physical event, generally destructive, that occurs in several different circumstances. It can destroy nearby [[Minecraft:block]]s, propel and damage nearby [[Minecraft:entities]], and cause [[Minecraft:fire]]s in some cases. Explosions produce a "shockwave" [[Minecraft:particle]] effect. Explosives include [[Minecraft:ghast]] fireballs, [[Minecraft:TNT]], [[Minecraft:End crystals]], [[Minecraft:beds]] when used outside of the Overworld, and [[Minecraft:respawn anchors]] when used outside of the Nether~~. Respawn anchors explodes only in the end and the overworld~~.		An '''explosion''' is a physical event, generally destructive, that occurs in several different circumstances.

Each affected entity is accelerated by between 0 and 1 blocks per game [[Minecraft:tick]] (0 to 20 blocks per second), added to its current velocity. This effect can accumulate over multiple explosions, even within a single tick.

	~~The~~ magnitude of the velocity given to each entity in the range of an explosion is calculated with the following code:		In [[Minecraft:Java Edition\|''Java Edition'']], the magnitude of the velocity given to each entity in the range of an explosion is calculated with the following code:
	<syntaxhighlight lang="java">		<syntaxhighlight lang="java">
	magnitude = (1 - distance/(2power)) exposure * knockbackMultiplier * (1 - EXPLOSION_KNOCKBACK_RESISTANCE)		magnitude = (1 - distance/(2power)) exposure * knockbackMultiplier * (1 - EXPLOSION_KNOCKBACK_RESISTANCE)
Line 18:		Line 18:

Or in formula form, <math>\left(1-\frac{\text{distance}}{2\cdot\text{power}}\right)\cdot\text{exposure}\cdot\text{knockback multiplier}\cdot\left(1-\text{explosion knockback resistance}\right)</math>.

	Distance is measured from the explosion center to the entity's feet position. A list of explosion powers can be found in the [[#Causes\|Causes]] section. Exposure is discussed in the [[#Exposure\|Exposure]] section. Explosion knockback resistance refers to the [[Minecraft:attribute]] <code>explosion_knockback_resistance</code>. The knockback multiplier depends on the cause:		In [[Minecraft:Bedrock Edition\|''Bedrock Edition'']], the magnitude of the velocity given to each entity in the range of an explosion is calculated with the following code:<syntaxhighlight lang="java">magnitude = (1 - (distance - width/2)/(2power)) exposure * knockbackMultiplier</syntaxhighlight>Distance is measured from the explosion center to the entity's feet position. Width is the width of the affected entity's collision box. A list of explosion powers can be found in the [[#Causes\|Causes]] section. Exposure is discussed in the [[#Exposure\|Exposure]] section. Explosion knockback resistance refers to the [[Minecraft:attribute]] <code>explosion_knockback_resistance</code>. The knockback multiplier depends on the cause:
	{\| class="wikitable sortable"		{\| class="wikitable sortable"

	To calculate the final velocity, the game takes the vector pointing from the explosion center to the entity's eye position and sets its length to the previously calculated magnitude.
