Do atomic bombs work with atomic fission?
no
Atomic bombs work by atomic fission?
Yes, that is correct.
Where does fission occour?
Nuclear fission occurs in fission reactors, a type of nuclear reactor, and in fission bombs, more commonly knows as atomic bombs.
What kind of nuclear reaction does an atomic bomb use?
Fission bombs use fission. Fusion bombs use fusion. Although atomic bomb is usually used for fission bombs, it technically applies equally to either.
Are atomic bombs different from nuclear bombs?
Both basically are the same, they can be fission or fusion bombs like Uranium,Plutonium and Hydrogen bombs. A general description would be that atomic bombs are fission bombs. Nuclear bombs are fusion bombs. Fusion bombs are more powerful weight for weight
Is it true or false atomic bombs work by atomic fisson?
yes, both true & false. They can work either by fission or some combination of fission & fusion. Most modern nuclear bombs use both fission & fusion to optimize for mission, size, weight, cost, etc. Total yield can vary from 100% fission to more than 95% fusion.
Atomic bombs are the result of what nuclear reaction?
fission and/or fusion
Has the Atomic bomb been replaced by something else since world war 2?
No, but now we have two types of atomic bombs: fission and fusion. The world war 2 bombs were only fission.
Which type of nuclear reaction is used in atomic bombs?
fission and in some fusion
Is a tomic bomb is an example of fusion or fission or annihilation?
An atomic bomb can be a fission bomb or a fusion bomb. Fusion bombs create more energy but fission bombs leave radioactive material and radiation.
What is the Difference in radiation - atomic vs hydrogen bombs?
The same nuclear radiation is released by both fission (atomic) and fusion (hydrogen) bombs. Hydrogen bombs are larger, and produce more.
Which can't be created on earth fussion or fission?
Both can be created on earth, and both have been. Fission has been used in atomic bombs, and fusion has been used in hydrogen bombs.
