How do you build a homemade chain reaction?
This would be very inadvisable. The simplest way would be to reproduce the 1942 Chicago pile, but how would you get the uranium?
What are the instruments used in radioactive isotopes?
Smoke detectors, the older ones, used radiation to detect the smoke. Soil density testers use radiation. A lot of medical instruments use it--X-ray machines and radiation machines for cancer treatment.
What is A pile of snow shaped by winds?
snowdrift
What is the area of Cinq-Mars-la-Pile?
The area of Cinq-Mars-la-Pile is 20.11 square kilometers.
A pile of rock fragments at the base of a cliff is called a?
This may be known as a scree slope or a talus pile. Talus and scree are normally used interchangeably, however scree normally refers to material of gravel size or smaller and talus to larger debris.
How much radiation did Chicago atomic reactor produce?
The reactor power was a max of about 1/2 a watt. See http://www.cfo.doe.gov/me70/manhattan/cp-1_critical.htm for an account of the experiment. As far as radiation is concerned, this report does not give a figure, or even mention whether radiation was measured. The pile does not seem to have had any shielding, so the large group of observers as well as the experimental team would have had some radiation exposure, but limited in intensity and time. These were very early days, but the later reactors at Oak Ridge and Hanford had shielding.
Who built the first nuclear reactor the 'Atomic pile'?
This was built as part of the Manhattan Project in WW2, to demonstrate the principle of the chain reaction. The results were used to design the Hanford piles to produce plutonium. The chief scientist for the Chicago pile was Enrico Fermi, first criticality in 1942
What was the first nuclear reactor called?
CP-1, Chicago Pile #1
Why compost produce heat?
benefit of the compost pile generating heat
Will there be riots if Obama loses?
I wish that I could have found out. I believe Chicago would be a massive pile of ashes if he had lost. Too bad...... I wish that I could have found out. I believe Chicago would be a massive pile of ashes if he had lost. Too bad......
Where was nuclear energy first discover?
The first chain reaction was demonstrated in the Chicago 'pile', in 1942.
The first sustained nuclear reaction occurred at what university?
The first working nuclear reactor was built at the University of Chicago. This was the Chicago Pile-1 (CP-1), and you can find a link below that will bathe you in information.
In which city was the first nuclear pile went into operation in December 1942?
Chicago in a University squash court.
Why would you add insects to a compost pile?
Because the waste they produce helps the plants grow stronger
Where can I find information on a bar in Chicago called Flynn's Sample Room?
on google, ask jeeves, dog pile, or yahoo
Who was the first person to sustain a fissionable chain reaction?
This was first achieved in the Chicago pile, 1942. Enrico Fermi was the team leader.
Another word for great danger?
Hi, Another words for great danger are below. Just take it and put both together one from great and one from Danager pile :) Great: Huge, large, vast, grand, Immense, enormous Danger: Hazard, Risk, peril, threat, menace, jeopardy
