How many nuclear bombs are there in 18.5 Gigatonnes?
You'd have to know the yield of each bomb to determine the number of bombs...
Where two nuclear bombs ever detonated next to each other?
YES!
How many nuclear bombs did the US and Russia have each?
America has roughly 10000 nuclear warheads and russia has anywhere from 5200-8800
What were names of some of the bombs in World War 2?
Well the only two worth remembering are the atomic bombs Fatman and Littleboy. Each bomb was dropped in Japan which hit Nagasaki and Hiroshima. Each bomb killed hundreds of thousands of Japanese citizens and soldiers. Japan shortly surrendered after that.
Do nuclear bombs use nuclear fusion or fission?
Almost all modern nuclear explosive devices use some of each. The early atomic bombs used only fission. All hydrogen bombs use both fission and fusion. Some things you might want to look up are: boosted fission bomb, external electrical fusor neutron source, the plutonium "fission sparkplug" used in each stage of a hydrogen bomb, depleted uranium hydrogen bomb tamper can provide up to 90% of the total yield through fast fission.
Which two countries almost let nuclear bombs on each other?
Either Russia and the US in the cold war or India and Pakistan in a standoff in 2001-2002
What Happened in the towns of Nagasaki and Hiroshima in 1945?
They both were atomic bombed by The United Sates of America.
How do nuclear weapons prevent wars?
Today, if any country decided to send a missile over to our country, we would know via satellite that they had fired (in a matter of mere seconds). By knowing they are sending a nuclear bomb to our country, we would fire one them. This would mean a nuclear fallout; our bombs are at least thirty times stronger than the bombs released at Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945. This keeps any country from using nuclear weapons on each other for fear of nuclear fallout.
How many bomb were droped in World War 2?
I have seen the figure of 7 million tons of bombs were dropped, thrown or put into artillery. I think the figure is probably higher world wide. The number of bombs is not how the military records and accounts for bombs. They go by tonnage not by each individual bomb. Trust me if you counted the individual bombs there would tens of millions of them because some air raids dropped over ten thousand bombs in one mission.
How can a uranium atom be made to release nuclear energy?
Every atom contains nuclear energy inside it. That nuclear energy can be released by splitting the atom. The uranium atom is one of the ones that is easier to split. Usually to release the nuclear energy atoms are collided with each other which breaks them releasing the nuclear energy. This is done in a machine called a particle accelerator in which atoms are fired at near the speed of light and when they collide and split they release nuclear energy. I Hope that answers your question.
What happened when USA dropped nuclear bomb on japan?
Japan surrendered, ending WW2. This took only the first 2 bombs of the 23 bombs scheduled to be dropped in 1945 should Japan refuse to surrender. Except for the MK-I gun bomb dropped on Hiroshima, the rest of these were MK-III implosion bombs like the one dropped on Nagasaki. The bombing schedule was 3 each in August, September, and October; 7 each in November and December.
What type of nuclear warheads do the United States still possess How many mega-tons are they?
All US nuclear warheads at this time are miniaturized fusion bombs. None have yields of 1MTon or more. Most are between 300KTons and 600KTons. Exact size of stockpile is classified, but assuming (based on START limits) its about 5000 bombs of about 500KTon each, the US stockpile totals roughly 2,500MTons.I hope somewhere in there is the answer to your question.
