Bert the Turtle appeared in filmstrips featuring a cheery little jingle called "Duck and Cover". The films suggested that it was possible to survive an atomic bomb simply by, well, ducking and covering the back of your neck with your head. This would do approximately nothing for people close to the blast, but they likely wouldn't have time to do it anyway, and against conventional explosives or at some distance from a nuclear blast, it would help mitigate the immediate effects.

Briefly explain how a hydrogen bomb works and how its differs from an atom bomb?
A Hydrogen bomb uses heavy Hydrogen or Deuterium to create a fusion chain reaction. Before that can happen however there needs to be a smaller fission explosion (atomic bomb). The radiation from this trigger explosion is directed into a hollow chamber like a bucket pointed at the atomic bomb, which contains Deuterium. Often there is a rod of Plutonium running the length of the bucket at the centre. This is designed to amplify the chain reaction and spark fusion releasing much greater quantity of energy.OK, you asked for briefly.atomic bomb at one end of hydrogen bomb casing detonates.x-rays from atomic bomb implode hydrogen bomb, heating & raising pressure in it.when at high enough temperature & pressure, hydrogen bomb explodes.An atomic bomb is just the atomic bomb mentioned at the beginning of step 1.A full description of all the events in a typical fission-fusion-fission hydrogen bomb consists of almost 2 dozen steps. A full description of the events in a typical fission atomic bomb is less than 6 steps.
How does a nuclear bomb explode?
A pure fission bomb completes its detonation in less than 10 microseconds, the fireball reaches full size in a few milliseconds. A fusion bomb takes somewhat longer but is typically more powerful.
How fast does a nuclear bomb explode?
A pure fission bomb completes its detonation in less than 10 microseconds, the fireball reaches full size in a few milliseconds. A fusion bomb takes somewhat longer but is typically more powerful.
Are beta waves dangerous?
Beta paricles is a form of ionizing radiation and may be dangerous; this depends on the isotope and many other conditions.

What is the purpose of Bert the Turtle in the video?
to make the atom bomb seem less threatning.
How does the video seek to make the atom bomb seem less threatening?
by showing people successfully surviving an atom bomb attack while on a picnic

How is the atom bomb constructed to ensure that it does not go off immediately?
The radioactive material in the bomb is kept apart and are less than the critical mass until they collide into each other. EGHS Ftl
Why was there a bombing of hiroshima and nagasaki?
The U.S believed that by dropping the Atom bomb, less casualties would be taken rather than a full fledged invasion of the island.

How is it safer to use a burn pit?
A burn pit is safer because the fire is contained within the pit, thus it is less likely to go out of control or spread. A bomb fire is not very dangerous but it would be MORE dangerous because it is not contained.
Is science constructive or destructive give example?
Science is destructing and less constructing. For Example 1) Atom Bomb is a scientific destructive device. 2) Information Technology is used to construct it.
Why dipole moment of chlorobenzene is lower than that of cyclohexyl chloride?
In chlorobenzene, the chlorine atom is attached to hybridized carbon atom(more 's' character). In cyclohexyl chloride, the chlorine atom is attached to hybridized carbon atom (less's' character than hybridized carbon atom). Hence chlorobenzene is more electronegative than cyclohexyl chloride. Therefore, the density of electrons C-Cl bond at chlorine atom is less in chlorobenzene than cyclohexyl chloride.The density of electrons C-Cl bond at chlorine atom in chlorobenzene decreases due to the -R effect of the benzene ring which is not in cyclohexyl chloride. Due to this polarity of the C-Cl bond decreases and hence dipole moment of chlorobenzene is lower than cyclohexyl chloride.
Will kilogram of hydrogen contain more atoms then kilogram of lead?
Yes, because each hydrogen atom has less mass than each lead atom.Yes, because each hydrogen atom has less mass than each lead atom.Yes, because each hydrogen atom has less mass than each lead atom.Yes, because each hydrogen atom has less mass than each lead atom.
