What is difference between nuclear grade resin and non- nuclear grade resin?
Nuclear grade resin has got higher capacity ,it produce high purity water,were as non nuclear grade resin produce purity water not high purity......
If you have your own nuclear power plant is it easier to obtain weapons grade uranium or weapons grade plutonium?
No nuclear plant I know of uses weapons grade fissile material. This is strictly controlled for military use only.
What is the cost per pound of beryllium?
Ca. 400 US $ for technical grade (the nuclear grade is more expensive).
Is 11Th grade math hard?
No...but I'm a nuclear physicist
What is the difference between fuel of nuclear power plants and the fuel needed to construct a nuclear weapon?
Reactor grade material is usable in most nuclear power plants. Weapons grade material is required for nuclear weapons. For uranium the difference between reactor grade and weapons grade is the level of enrichment: less than 20% uranium-235 is reactor grade, greater than 20% uranium-235 (greater than 90% is prefered) is weapons grade. For plutonium the difference between reactor grade and weapons grade is the level of contamination with plutonium-241: any amount of plutonium-241 is OK for reactor grade, only low levels of plutonium-241 are acceptable in weapons grade as its spontaneous fission rate can cause the bomb to fizzle.
How does weapon-grade uranium differ from nuclear-reactor-grade uranium?
Weapons grade uranium contains a substantially larger fraction of the radioactive isotope 235U than does reactor grade uranium.
What is the nuclear wall?
A line or defence network of nuclear missiles. ^^fail the nuclear wall is in a cell and it is the double membrane surrounding the nucleus that guy needs to retake seventh grade
In Berlin Germany what courses do students study in the 8th grade?
Nuclear Physics
What is high grade neuroendocrine carcinoma?
The Ki-67 reading gives the rate of cell proliferation and is detemined by examining tissue samples from the biopsied tumor. A reading of <2% indicates that the tumor is slow-growing. Between 2% and 20% is intermediate grade and >20% indicates a high grade, fast growing tumor.
Could Japan's reactors produce a nuclear explosion?
No, the fuel used won't be weapons grade, just industrial grade. The fuel will get very hot though and could cause non nuclear explosions, which will cause radioactive dust to be released into the surroundings.
How much is plutonium worth?
Approx. 4ooo US $ per gram for nuclear weapons quality plutonium; the price for nuclear reactors grade plutonium is lower.
Can nuclear power plants make nuclear weapons?
It can produce low grade plutonium that need be extracted from the used nuclear fuel through used fuel reprocessing. However, power reactors are subject to the international nuclear safeguards to prevent its misuse.
