Dragon’s teeth – Stopping tanks in their tracks
A tank has a giant gun on it. Can't you just blow up a big chunk and drive on through?

These things are basically huge lumps of solid concrete. You can blow them up, but a blast strong enough to reduce them to rubble requires way more explosives than a single tank shell can pack. Combat engineers can do it better and faster.
