The atomic bombs used during World War II used fission to produce the nuclear chain reaction.
What else can I help you with?
What does an atomic bomb use for explosive power?
TNT(Trinitrotolune)
What was the atomic bomb was expected to be?
explosive
Could the atomic bomb exist without radioactivity?
No, the atomic bomb relies on the process of nuclear fission, which produces radioactivity as a byproduct. Radioactivity is essential for the explosive power of the bomb.
Is atom bomb different to atomic bomb?
No, "atom bomb" and "atomic bomb" refer to the same type of explosive device that derives its destructive power from nuclear fission reactions. Both terms are used interchangeably to describe the same technology.
What damage can volcanoes cause?
Mt. Helena once erupted, and the explosion was 20 x the explosive power of an atomic bomb.
What is the mass of matter that changed into energy when the atomic bomb was dropped on Nagasaki with an explosive power equivalent to 20000 tons of TNT was approximately?
The bomb had a weight of almost 10,000 pounds.
How big was the first atomic bomb?
The first atomic bomb detonated was the Trinity Test Bomb on July 16, 1945. It had the estimated explosive power eqivalent of 20,000 Tons of TNT. It was identical to the bomb dropped on Nagasaki 3 weeks later. The Hiroshima bomb was of a different design and was about 15,000 Tons equvalent.
What is the uses of atomic bomb?

What is the meaning of 15 kilotons of energy?
Kilotons are used to measure the power of atomic bombs. A kiloton is the power equivalent of 1000 tons of TNT, a chemical explosive used in bombs. A 15 kiloton atomic bomb has the power of 15,000 tons of TNT.
How much power did the atomic bomb have?
The atomic bomb that was dropped on Hiroshima in 1945 had an explosive yield equivalent to approximately 15 kilotons of TNT. This explosion resulted in massive destruction and loss of life in the city.
What is an adjective describing a bomb?
nuclear... atomic... explosive... something something... dark side
Is unearthed uranium susceptible to reaction if it were exposed to an atomic bomb blast?
Unearthed uranium is not highly reactive to an atomic bomb blast on its own. However, if the uranium was refined and processed into a nuclear weapon, it could undergo fission reactions in response to a nuclear blast, contributing to the explosive power of the bomb.
