When a nuclear bomb drops, a conflagration of heat is imposed upon the environment. Along with this immense heat is the radiation emitted from the energy produced due to the splitting of the atom which caused the nuclear explosion. When this occurs, the tiny waves mix with thiophene in the air, which enters into your blood stream through the pulmonary arteries, and activates the cancer sites inherent in your body composition. These cancer sites, which all people are born with, are violently activated and start producing cancer cells at the rate of 10 cells/picosecond. You're practically dead by the time you exhale. Most notably, the late Corey Loeffelman, who used to participate in hometown plays here in Lebanon, suffered from this terrible irradiation after participating in the Alamogordo atomic tests.
For bombs such as atomic or nuclear, I believe it is a nuclear engineer.
Actinium itself is not used in bombs. However, it can be a byproduct of nuclear reactions and may potentially be used in the initiation systems of certain types of nuclear weapons.
Nuclear bombs are made of highly enriched uranium or plutonium. These materials undergo a nuclear fission chain reaction, releasing enormous amounts of energy in the form of heat and radiation, resulting in a powerful explosion. Additionally, nuclear bombs contain conventional high explosive materials to trigger the nuclear reaction and amplify the blast.
Uranium is the element commonly used to generate electricity in nuclear power plants and as the primary material for nuclear bombs. It undergoes nuclear reactions such as fission to release large amounts of energy.
Yes, plutonium is used as a key component in nuclear bombs. It is highly fissile and undergoes nuclear chain reactions to release a large amount of energy when triggered, leading to the explosive power of the bomb.
Biological weapons can cause infectious diseases. The radiation from nuclear weapons can cause either short term, but often fatal, radiation sickness or in the long term cancer.
You think to applications of nuclear physics.
Basically, nuclear energy is used in two ways: * In nuclear reactors, to generate electricity. * In nuclear bombs (atom bombs) to cause destruction on a large scale.
because of the force and radiation
Yes Gamma Rays can cause cancer, even a small exposure to Gamma ray can cause the risk of cancer, X-Rays and Visible light can cause cancer but need huge amounts of it exposed to the body, Gamma is used in Nuclear bombs because of all the energy it has, so if you're near a Nuclear bomb when it sets off, Your most likely to catch cancer ;)
CANCER
Some bombs are nuclear. But most bombs are not nuclear.
You think to applications of nuclear physics.
Beacause millions of lives were taken by the nuclear bombs
No, China has several hundred nuclear bombs and has had bombs since 1964.
At this time the US builds no nuclear bombs. A small number of existing bombs are refurbished as needed.
Fallout caused by nuclear bombs can cause radiation burns and genetic mutations.
