E = Mc2 has little to do with the design of nuclear weapons, it is just a simple unitts conversion equation between energy and mass, just like feet = miles 5280 is a simple units conversion equation between feet and miles.
They are more interested in the fissioning mass and efficiency figures in the design of nuclear weapons. For example in Little Boy about 787 grams of the uranium used fissioned giving an efficiency of about 1%. The actual mass conversion to energyas shown by E = Mc2 is roughly 450e-15 grams converted to energy to give the roughly 15 kiloton yield of Little Boy. This is because c2 is such a large conversion factor!
The Bikini atoll was used for nuclear weapons testing.
This formula is used in nuclear medicine. It can be really helpful in determining different parts of this medical field.
This is best explained in Glasstones's book The Effects of Nuclear Weapons.
If they are used, then very detrimentally.
the only time they were ever used was to end ww2.
No nuclear weapons were used in the korean war
The radioactive elements plutonium or uranium are the elements that are used in nuclear weapons that create nuclear fission. Isotopes of hydrogen are used in nuclear weapons that create nuclear fusion.
None. No nuclear weapons were used in Viet Nam.
The Bikini atoll was used for nuclear weapons testing.
Some of the countries have nuclear weapons because they use them as a defense mechanism. The nuclear weapons are intended to be used whenever there is a war.
the u.s. used non nuclear weapons and nuclear weapons against japan
No nuclear weapons have been used in Afghanistan to date.
The threat that nuclear weapons would be used.
Only in nuclear weapons
nuclear power
Thorium was not used in nuclear weapons.
This formula is used in nuclear medicine. It can be really helpful in determining different parts of this medical field.
