Not "Fat boy" but "Fat man'; "Fat man" had putonium, not uranium 235.
the bomb was nicknamed "Little Boy", and it used the element of uranium-235.
There are two materials that can be used to make an atomic bomb: Plutonium-239 and uranium-235. Of the two plutonium-239 is easier to acquire. By the end of the Manhattan Project the U.S. only had enough uranium-235 to make one bomb, and that was Little Boy.
'Little Boy' - Uranium whereas 'Fat Man' used Plutonium triggering devices .
The first atomic bomb used against mankind was dropped over Hiroshima, Japan on August 6, 1945. It's code name was little boy and it used Uranium as fuel. The second bomb was dropped over Nagasaki, Japan on august 9, 1495. It,s code name was fat man and it used Plutonium as fuel.
The Little man used uranium as fuel and the Fat man used Plutonium as fuel.
the bomb was nicknamed "Little Boy", and it used the element of uranium-235.
little boy the first atom bomb used uranium 235 and fat man the second one used plutonium 239 surrounded by high explosives little boy used uranium 235 and fat man used plutonium 239<------- That answer makes no sense, and ima girl and i asked that question. What are you stupid? Little Boy was the first bomb, and Fat Man was the second.

The little boy atomic bomb used on Hiroshima contained Uranium-235. The Fat Man atomic bomb used on Nagasaki contained Plutonium.
The nuclear weapons were developed in the Manhattan Project. The development took years of research and work to learn how to produce Uranium 235 and Plutonium, and how to fabricate them into a bomb. The Uranium bomb, known as Little Boy, used a gun system to fire a plug of uranium into a larger target of uranium. The Plutonium bomb, known as Fat Man, was a round ball of plutonium that was crushed by explosive charges. The link below will take you to an article on the Manhattan Project.

Uranium-253 Uranium-235 needed to make a bomb: - 15 kilograms: Weight of a solid sphere of 100 percent uranium-235 just large enough to achieve a critical mass with a beryllium reflector. Diameter of such a sphere: 4.48 in (11.4 cm). Diameter of a regulation softball: 3.82 in (9.7 cm). - 16 kilograms: Amount needed for an Iraqi bomb design found by UN inspectors. - 50 kilograms: Weight of a solid sphere of 100 percent uranium-235 just large enough to achieve a critical mass without a reflector. Diameter of such a sphere: 6.74 in (17.2 cm), comparable to an average honeydew melon. - 60 kilograms: Reported amount used in Hiroshima bomb "Little Boy."
Little boy was a bomb with highly enriched uranium.
The first atomic bomb used against mankind was dropped over Hiroshima, Japan on August 6, 1945. It's code name was little boy and it used Uranium as fuel. The second bomb was dropped over Nagasaki, Japan on august 9, 1495. It,s code name was fat man and it used Plutonium as fuel.
The Little man used uranium as fuel and the Fat man used Plutonium as fuel.
Apparently it was plutonium which I think is element 295.Plutonium is element 94.Plutonium was used in the Gadget at Trinity.Uranium was used in the first bomb dropped on Japan the Little Boy at Hiroshima.Plutonium was used in the second bomb dropped on Japan the Fatman at Nagasaki.
The 'Fat Man' bomb which was dropped onto Hiroshima was made up of Plutonium. The 'Little Boy' bomb which was dropped onto Nagasaki was made up of Uranium 235.
