What elements are in the atomic bomb?
Uranium plutonium and hydrogen
Which two elements were used to produce the atomic bombs?
The key elements to making fission bombs are: Uranium and Plutonium. The specific isotopes of interest are: Uranium-233, Uranium-235, and Plutonium-239. But many other elements are needed to make a functional bomb. As a very rough guess, about a quarter of the elements on the periodic table are needed somewhere in the bomb, roughly 23 different elements in total.
What elements was used in the atomic bombs?
The little boy atomic bomb used on Hiroshima contained Uranium-235. The Fat Man atomic bomb used on Nagasaki contained Plutonium.
What makes up a nuclear bomb?
Depends on the type of bomb. The first nuclear weapons were fission weapons- they used a heavy metal such as Uranium or Plutonium. These metals, when compressed by explosives, would undergo nuclear fission, and break into lighter elements, releasing heat and radiation. Later, larger bombs were fusion bombs. They used a fission bomb to start the nuclear reaction, but then used that energy to FUSE light elements, such as Deuterium and Tritium into heavier elements, releasing LARGE amounts of heat and radiation.
What do the numbers on the elements mean?
It means the atomic power of that element, so an element with a high number would be like an atomic bomb or worse.
What elements does the atomic bomb use?
There are many different elements involved in the construction of an atomic bomb, but the elements that actually cause an atomic explosion are either uranium (specifically the U235 isotope) or plutonium.
What elements are in the atomic bomb?
Uranium plutonium and hydrogen
What elements are in atom bombs?
if the bomb is a fission bomb it will use uranium 235 for fuel. if the bomb is a thermonuclear bomb (fusion) it will use the element hydrogen and an isotope of hydrogen for fuel.
What kills more h-bomb or a-bomb?
different letters in the alphabetAn "A-bomb" is usually a fission bomb (plutonium or Uranium fissions = splits into lighter elements)An "H-bomb" is a fusion bomb wherein Hydrogen (or some isotope of it) "fuses" into heavier elements. Often an H-bomb needs the energy of an A-bomb to start its nuclear reaction but the output is SO much greater that the A-bombs energy output is dwarfed by the enormous fusion explosion.
Does transmutation help in making a hydrogen bomb?
Transmutation occurs when a fusion bomb (H-bomb) detonates: The Primary (A-bomb/fission) converts a heavy element like plutonium or uranium into lighter elements, such as strontium, etc... The Secondary (H-bomb/fusion part) converts a light element into heavier elements, like Hydrogen into Helium.
What are the ratings and certificates for Bomb Girls - 2012 Elements of Surprise 1-6?
Bomb Girls - 2012 Elements of Surprise 1-6 is rated/received certificates of: Netherlands:12
What does an atomic bomb use for its expolsive power?
Of the two dropped on Japan, one was a Uranium bomb and the other a Plutonium bomb. Both Uranium and Plutonium are elements, and are radioactive. The radioactivity makes these elements suitable as sources of energy, for power generation or explosions.
What elements are used to produce an atom bomb?
one element is fluorine
What elements did the atomic bomb Fat Man use?
Plutonium 239
What is another fuel that is used in an atom bomb?
such heavy elements as plutonium or uranium.
Did the nuclear bomb consist of any metals or elements?
roughly 1/3 of the elements on the periodic table are used in some way
