An atomic bomb is made up from the inside out by:
a plutonium pit(ball) about the sized as a honeydew melon.
surrounded by about 2 inches of high explosive on all sides.
This is triggered in a USA bomb by an intricate series of safety triggers
that prevent accidental explosion by altitude triggers, timers, and arming triggers.
Excess nuclear binding energy supplied by the strong nuclear force.
enriched uranium or plutonium
the atomic bomb gets its power from the hydrogen atom, which is split, releasing a tremendous amount of energy.
In general, a fusion bomb (hydrogen bomb) is more powerful than a fission (atomic) bomb. Fusion bombs use an atomic bomb to begin the fusion reaction.
Yes there was a third atomic bomb named Junior.But the bomb was never used.Insead it was buried,on an unmapped island.But the reason they did not use it was Beacuse they did not have to.Beacuse after Fat Man and Little Boy was built and dropped the war ended. So that caused them not to use the third atomic bomb,Junior.

The US employed Atomic Bombs as a last resort. The first bomb's widespread aftereffects.
Military use Nuclear Energy for the protection purposes and generating electricity for many military operations.Nuclear energy is used in Atomic Bomb which is becoming a necessity for every country.
TNT(Trinitrotolune)

The atomic bombs used during World War II used fission to produce the nuclear chain reaction.
They understood the power of the atomic bomb and feared its use.
The race to the Atomic bomb can be relevant to Macbeth in terms of the moral and ethical implications of scientific advancements. Just as Macbeth faced moral dilemmas in his quest for power, the scientists involved in developing the atomic bomb grappled with the consequences of their actions. Both scenarios raise questions about the responsible use of power and the impact of unchecked ambition.
Franklin Roosevelt- but he died before the atomic bomb was used. Harry Truman was the next president, and ordered the use of the atomic bomb.
Leo Szilard invented the atomic bomb & reactor in 1933 as an improved means of transmuting elements. His 1934 patent on this invention also made claims for use in explosives or power generation.
Atomic bombs are very complex weapons designed to force a rapid collapse of fissionable radioactive materials to force them into a critical state. They may have a "conventional bomb" built into them to force this to occur. The active part of the bomb will be very pure isotopes of either Uranium or Plutonium. Hydrogen bombs are more complicated, and use Hydrogen, Lithium, or Helium to generate the explosive power, but they essentially require the energy of a fission atomic bomb to start the secondary fusion reaction.

One thing that was not a major factor in the decision to use the atomic bomb was civilian casualties.

The US dropped the atomic bomb onto Japan on August 1945.
