Which is stronger Nuclear Bomb or Hydrogen Bomb?
Nuclear bombs is all types of bombs that use nuclear energy. It is not a type of bomb,just a category of bombs. hydrogen bomb is the strongest bomb ever, and its blast yield can go up to 100megatons of TNT.
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.
Is the atom bomb and the hydrogen bomb the same thing?
No. Atomic bombs use fission, hydrogen bombs use fusion (and are more powerful)
Why hydrogen bomb is harmful for living beings What is the use of making a hydrogen bomb why only hydrogen bomb?
The Hydrogen bomb being harmful to humans should be realtivley self explanatory... making them was to use them as a deterent to the russians or any other nuclear aggressor. hydrogen bombs were not the only kind that were developed. there were others as well.
What type of reaction does the hydrogen bomb use?
The hydrogen bomb uses nuclear fusion, a reaction in which two light atomic nuclei combine to form a heavier nucleus, releasing a large amount of energy. This differs from nuclear fission, which is the process used in atomic bombs where heavy atomic nuclei are split into lighter ones.
What does a hydrogen bomb use for its explosive power?
A hydrogen bomb uses nuclear fusion, the process of fusing hydrogen atoms together, to release a massive amount of energy. This energy release is what generates the explosive power of a hydrogen bomb.
What is the difference between a hydrogen bomb and a nuclear bomb?
Gunpowder, TNT, C4 plastic explosive, nitroglycerin, etc. all release chemical energy that has nothing to do with the nuclei of the atoms in the chemicals. Any 'bomb' that makes an explosion with nuclear energy is a 'nuclear' bomb. The "Hydrogen Bomb" is one of them. So far, devices have been built and tested that use the atomic nucleus to make explosions in two different general ways: -- "fission" . . . the nuclear energy is released when one heavy nucleus splits into two or more lighter ones. This device is popularly known as the "Atomic Bomb". -- "fusion" . . . the nuclear energy is released when two light atomic nuclei join together to form a single one. This device is popularly known as the "Hydrogen Bomb".
What is the process when hydrogen nuclei combine with each other to form helium and other heavier elements?
Nuclear fusion. A tiny amount of mass is also annihilated and released as energy (used in the "hydrogen bomb", and currently the focus of intense research to create usable energy for domestic and industrial use, in place of energy derived in conventional nuclear power stations involving fission of heavy elements, as was also used in the original "atom bomb").
What is a hydrogen bomb made of?
a hydrogen bomb is based on the principle of nuclear fusion. 4 hydrogen nulcei combine to form a helium nuclei and release energy. But fusion is only possible at high temperatures. Hence a nuclear fission reaction is carried out to get a high temperature.practical hydrogen bombs actually use the solid chemical lithium deuteride, not hydrogen as their fuel. neutrons from the bomb's fissioning plutonium "sparkplug" split the lithium nuclei to produce tritium, which then undergoes fusion with the deuterium. this deuterium-tritium fusion happens at far lower temperatures and pressures than the 4 hydrogen fusion mentioned above requires.
Can we use hydrogen bomb to minimize tsunami?
Yes
What is the different between atomic bomb and hydrogen bombs?
The main difference between atomic bombs and hydrogen bombs is the source of their energy. Atomic bombs rely on nuclear fission (splitting atoms), while hydrogen bombs use a two-stage process involving both fission and fusion (combining atoms). Hydrogen bombs are more powerful and destructive than atomic bombs.
Briefly how does a hydrogen bomb works and how it is different from an atom bomb?
In short A-bombs use nuclear fission, H-bombs use nuclear fusion. An atom bomb is more commonly a reference to fission bombs which release energy through nuclear fission. Fission is the the chain reaction in which unstable nuclei such as in uranium break down when hit by a neutron (from another breaking down nucleus) Hydrogen bombs on the hand use nuclear fussion is which two hydrogen nuclei are forced together to form helium and release energy. This is the reaction that occurs in stars and it more powerful. H-bombs as a result of their fuel are "cleaner" as they release energy but less nuclear fallout (radiactive material left over)
