Is nuclear bomb a mod in Minecraft?
Yes, there a Nuclear Bomb mods for Minecraft. There are also mods that have more explosives, including nuclear bombs. YellowYoshi101 out!
Does the US military have a nuclear bomb?
they have nuclear missiles. and they have many powerful explosives. and yes massive bombs.
Full form of a-bomb?
An atomic bomb uses nuclear fission at the atomiclevel to detonate several tons of explosives.
What happens if a fusion bomb if it crashes into nuclear bomb?
I do not understand what you are asking because of a definition problem. A nuclear bomb can be either a fission or fusion bomb. Also a physical crash of nuclear devices is most likely to simply detonate their conventional explosives regardless of whether they are fission or fusion (although modern low shock sensitivity explosives make this less likely than it was).
Is fusion the difference between a nuclear weapon detonation and a conventional explosion?
Yes, the conventional explosives would trigger an explosion of the conventional explosives inside the nuclear bomb which would blow apart the nuclear components of the nuclear bomb, causing significant alpha emitter radiological contamination but no nuclear yield.
Is a dirty bomb a nuclear weapon?
No, a dirty bomb is a radiological weapon. It simply uses conventional explosives to scatter radioisotopes over an area.
What kind of energy conversions takes place in a nuclear bomb explosion?
Nuclear mass --> energy conversion is most of it. Conventional explosives start it.
How does bomb works?
Depends on the bomb. Conventional bombs rely on explosives- unstable chemicals that change to another chemical product, releasing heat. Nuclear weapons rely on fissonable material, When the material is crushed together by conventional explosives, a nuclear chain reaction takes place, releasing energy.
What chemical are in a nuclear bomb?
Too many to list, from the fissile and fusiondble fuels, explosives, electronics, inert casing materials, etc.
What is the difference between a atomic bomb and a nuclear core?
An atomic bomb is a complete deliverable bomb, including all nonnuclear components. The nuclear core is a rather small part, typically between 2 to 3 inches in diameter that contains the fissile fuel that when made supercritical by conventional explosives in the bomb fissions and provides the energy to drive the actual nuclear explosion.
Why does a nuclear bomb cause such a large explosion?
Because it releases much more energy in a much shorter time than chemical explosives can.
What are the chemicals that composed the nuclear bomb?
Too many to list, from the fissile and fusiondble fuels, explosives, electronics, inert casing materials, etc.
