Who made the man-made element plutonium?
If it is man made, plutonium is prepared by human beings in nuclear reactors and recycling plants.
What is pluton made of?
A very small amount of plutonium is found in nature. The majority of it is produced artificially.The majority of plutonium is made in nuclear reactors:uranium-238 captures a neutron, becoming uranium-239uranium-239 undergoes beta decay, becoming neptunium-239 (halflife 23.5 minutes)neptunium-239 undergoes beta decay, becoming plutonium-239 (halflife 2.33 days)plutonium is then chemically separated from the remaining uranium, neptunium, etc.
Is fur natural or man made?
It is natural but there are man-made imitations.
Is canvas natural or man-made?
It can be made from natural or man made fibres.
Is rubber man made?
Rubber is man-made but has natural agents.
What elements did the atomic bomb Fat Man use?
Plutonium 239
What element was used to make the atom bomb?
Plutonium-239 for Nagasaki's Fat Man Uranium-235 for Hiroshima's Little Boyhydrogen
What were the atomic bombs made of?
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.
How much plutonium was used in World War 2?
Approx. 2 x 6,2 kg plutonium-239 for Trinity and Fat Man bombs.
Why was plutonium used in Fat Man?
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.

Is the element plutonium man made?
Yes, plutonium is an artificial element.
How are the materials in plutonium mined?
Plutonium is not mined; it is a man made element.
Is plutonium a man made or a natural?
Plutonium was discovered by Glenn T. Seaborg, Edwin M. McMillan, Joseph W. Kennedy and Arthur C. Wahl at the Berkeley Laboratory of the University of California (United States) after the bombardment of uranium with deuterons, in 1940. Now plutonium is obtained in the nuclear reactors. Plutonium is also in traces in uranium minerals.
Where can you buy artificial or man made plutonium?
We cannot buy plutonium; the transfer of plutonium is strictly controlled.
Is plutonium a example of a synthetic element?
Yes, plutonium is an artificial element, man made.
