Cobalt 60 is not for bombs but for industrial or therapeutic gamma-irradiation.
The comparison is not possible. Cobalt 60 is a gamma ray emitter, uranium 235 is a fissile material.
Uranium-235 (not uranium-238) is used in atomic bombs; under nuclear fission with neutrons uranium release an enormous quantity of energy (202,5 MeV per one atom of 235U).
Yes, uranium can be used in atomic bombs.
Uranium is a highly reactive mineral that is used as a source of atomic energy for bombs and nuclear powered generating plants
No mineral. Two metals- uranium and plutonium- are used in atomic bombs.
No mineral. Two metals- uranium and plutonium- are used in atomic bombs.
- the energy released from enriched uranium is higher compared to natural uranium- the amount of uranium needed for a reactor is lower- research reactors work only with enriched uranium- atomic bombs have highly enriched uranium or plutonium
Uranium is used in atomic bombs - bombs with uranium 235 (enriched more than 20%, with 92% or 93% being typical weapons grade uranium, also called orealloy for Oak Ridge Alloy).
Producing weaponized uranium and nuclear material from which nuclear bombs can be built.
does uranium rust
Uranium is a highly reactive mineral that is used as a source of atomic energy for bombs and nuclear powered generating plants
Fission bombs. They use one or more of 3 fuels: Uranium-233, Uranium-235, or Plutonium-239.
