What was important about Albert Einstein's making of the nuclear bomb?

Albert Einstein did not make the nuclear bomb. Oppenheimer did.


Were the rosenbergs involved in making the atomic bomb?

no, but they were involved as couriers to leak information on the bomb to the USSR.


What is stronger a nuke or atom bomb?

A nuclear bomb and an atomic bomb are actually the same thing. Both terms refer to a type of explosive device that releases energy by nuclear reactions. The power of the explosion depends on the type of nuclear reactions involved and the amount of fissile material present in the bomb.


Was Einstein involved in the hydrogen bomb?

No, Albert Einstein was not directly involved in the development of the hydrogen bomb. However, he was a signatory to the Russell-Einstein Manifesto, which called for nuclear disarmament and warned of the dangers of nuclear weapons.


When did the nuclear bomb come into existence?

I suggest Richard Rhodes book The Making of the Atomic Bomb.1945


How was the development of the atomic bomb more of a physics problem than a chemistry problem?

The development of the atomic bomb focused on the physics of nuclear fission, which involves splitting the atomic nucleus to release huge amounts of energy. This process is driven by factors such as critical mass and reaction rates, which are primarily physics concepts. Chemistry played a secondary role in understanding the properties of elements involved in nuclear reactions and the behavior of materials under extreme conditions.


Who has the biggest nuclear bomb in the world?

As of now, Russia possesses the largest nuclear bomb in the world known as the Tsar Bomba. It was tested in 1961 and had a yield of 50 megatons, making it the most powerful nuclear bomb ever detonated.

Whats the difference between nuclear chemistry and nuclear energy?

Nuclear energy is, primarily, the controlled (or, in a bomb, the uncontrolled) release of binding energy (Strong Atomic Force) in the nucleus of an atom by the process of fission or fusion. All nuclear power plants and the Atomic bomb use fission. The Sun and the Hydrogen bomb use fusion1. Nuclear chemistry, on the other hand, is the interrelationship between electron fields of various atoms as they interact to form various compounds, releasing and/or absorbing energy as they do so. Instead of the Strong Atomic Force, the electron field participate in the Electromagnetic Force, one of the other three primary forces. (The other two being the Weak Atomic Force, and Gravity.) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 1Technically, the Hydrogen bomb also uses fission. It requires so much energy to initiate the fusion reaction that we use an Atomic bomb to set off the Hydrogen bomb.
