The pit ("core") in the primary of a two-stage thermonuclear weapon (or by itself in a single stage weapon) is a sphere or ovoid (hollow in modern weapons) made of a fissile material such as plutonium (usually) or uranium (less frequently). They are usually alloyed and plated with some other metal (with plutonium, the plutonium is usually alloyed with gallium and plated with nickel or gold)to stabilise them. They are frequently hollow but there is a pit tube to inject tritium or tritium / deuterium gas mixture into the core to boost the primary and adjust the yield of the weapon.
Some weapons contain a layer of a neutron reflecting material such as beryllium surrounding the pit or bonded to it. The pit may also be bare in certain compact linear implosion weapons.
Very old-style nuclear weapons had a pusher just outside the reflector made of aluminum or depleted uranium.
The secondaries of two-stage weapons (thermonuclear) also contain Lithium-6 deuteride as the source of deuterium and tritium for the fusion fuel during the ablative implosion of the secondary. There is a plutonium "spark plug" (it's a long hollow cylinder of plutonium, or a sphere in more modern compact weapons like the W87 or W88) inside and an outside layer made of lead or depleted uranium to compress the fusion fuel and the spark plug.
uranium, an element that only previously found major use as a pottery glaze and component in some steel alloys.
it was either used directly, after expensive enrichment in its rare 235 isotope.
or after transmutation in a nuclear reactor into a new element, plutonium.
there are many, a few are: uranium, plutonium, lithium, deuterium, tritium, copper, aluminum, carbon, iron, silicon, oxygen, lead, etc.
Uranium-235
This element is used for that process, and for the preparation of those compounds.
Element: He Helium.
what element is used to build missiles
are you asking what element is used or how it is used? if you are asking what element is used it would be charcoal. Chlorine gas has been added to kill bacteria.
This element is iron.
hbomb (hydrogen bomb)
Heather Wallis goes by Hbomb.
H Haden Hammond goes by HBomb.
A hydrogen bomb is, by far, the most destructive weapon that mankind has ever invented. It is the most powerful type of nuclear bomb.
how is element used in dysprosium
The element used for dating is carbon
Metal is not an element. It is a term used to classify an element, but it is not an element.
what element is used and why do scientist chose it
Tungsten
This element is used for that process, and for the preparation of those compounds.
Element: He Helium.
The nonflamable element used in balloons is Helium, (He).
