What is a powerful explosive?
The most powerful nonnuclear explosive is HNIW, 2,4,6,8,10,12-hexanitro-2,4,6,8,10,12-hexaazaisowurtzitane. Also known as CL-20. but water is the most powerful exsplosive
What strategy was intended to broaden America's range of options during international crises by strengthening and modernizing the military's ability to fight a nonnuclear war?
Flexible Response According to US History book.
What is submersibles use for?
Submersibles are used for exploring underwater life fartherbeneath the surface then humans can go UNequipt. John Wikes Booth invented the submersible. Its is also a small nonmilitary nonnuclear submarine that is used for exploration.
Is uranium used in atomic bombs?
Yes, enriched uranium can be used in atomic bombs.
When did the first atomic bomb touch down?
Atomic bombs don't do that. The closest thing to what you are describing is a "laydown" bomb, a bomb designed to destroy airfield runways using a parachute to put it gently on the ground then detonate it later after a delay of seconds to days. While such atomic bombs have been built and stockpiled, none had ever been used or tested. The nonnuclear "laydown" system was tested by dropping nonnuclear dummy bombs and the atomic bomb to go inside was tested; but entirely separately. In an attack using "laydown" bombs several would be dropped with different delays, so that some exploded very soon after landing causing destruction of the runways, then others would explode at various later times to prevent repairs and harass the repair crews.
What is the major substance used to make nuclear weapons?
The most common materials used as "fuels" are plutonium, oralloy (i.e. highly enriched uranium), and lithium deuteride. Smaller amounts of deuterium and/or tritium gas are used in some devices. For the nonnuclear parts of the bombs many other materials are used, much as they would in conventional bombs.
What is the difference between a atomic bomb and a nuclear core?
An atomic bomb is a complete deliverable bomb, including all nonnuclear components. The nuclear core is a rather small part, typically between 2 to 3 inches in diameter that contains the fissile fuel that when made supercritical by conventional explosives in the bomb fissions and provides the energy to drive the actual nuclear explosion.
Where was New Mexico's first atomic bomb manufactured?
All early US nuclear weapons, until 1952/1953 were manufactured in Los Alamos, NM and Sandia Base in Albuquerque, NM. Prototype casings were developed and manufactured at Wendover, UT. During 1945 everything was done at Los Alamos, but later work on manufacturing the nonnuclear components (e.g. casings, electronics, explosives, detonators) was moved to Sandia Base.
What has the author Gail V Bass written?
Gail V. Bass has written: 'Funding mechanisms and their effects on rural areas' -- subject(s): Federal aid to education 'Federal aid to rural schools' -- subject(s): Federal aid to education, Rural Education 'Actions against nonnuclear energy facilities, September 1981-September 1982' -- subject(s): Chronology, Energy facilities, History, Security measures, Terrorism
What happens to fossil fuel rods that are used to create nuclear fission?
The first thing that comes to mind about uranium is that it used in nuclear power plants as fuel. Also, it is used in nuclear explosives. It is interesting to note that earlier it was used as a colouring agent in pottery, tiles, and glassware (including a bit of uranium salts makes glass a pale yellow-to-green color, depending on the concentration and exact oxidation state of the uranium) and to make false teeth brighter. Depleted uranium (uranium that contains a lower-than-normal percentage of 235U) is sometimes used to make projectiles; it's very dense, which gives it superior penetrating power.
Who established the navy seals?
President John F. Kennedy in his speech of 25 May 1961 before a joint session of Congress stated: "I am directing the Secretary of Defense to expand rapidly and substantially, in cooperation with our Allies, the orientation of existing troops for the conduct of nonnuclear war, paramilitary operations , and sub-limited or unconventional wars In addition, our special forces and unconventional warfare units will be increased and reoriented. Throughout the services new emphasis must be placed on the special skills and languages which are required to work with local populations." End of UDT, SEALS came alive....
What is the defined meaning of the phrase Conservation of Matter?
Conservation of matter says that matter is neither created nor destroyed. An exception is the conversion of matter to or from energy. This is governed by Einstein's famous E = m times C squared, where E is energy (either in or out), m is matter (either out or in), and C is the velocity of light. Conversion of matter to energy happens in nuclear events such as nuclear fission (atomic reactors, atomic fission bombs, natural decay by fission - carbon 12 for example or radium, etc.) or by nuclear fusion (hydrogen bombs, the sun). For nonnuclear situations, matter is conserved.
