What is the difference between nuclear bomb and plutonium bomb?
A nuclear bomb is any bomb with any nuclear or atomic material inside it, while a plutonium bomb is a specific type of nuclear bomb. Plutonium could be the nuclear material inside the bomb, and if it is, it's a plutonium bomb.
How long does it take to make uranium for a nuclear bomb?
Depending on the size and type of the bomb and also on the enrichment installation available.
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 materials are used in nuclear weapons and bombs?
The question that you are asking in itself is quite broad as there are many types of nuclear weapons and bombs.. However, there are certain similarities to all of these weapons that are necessary to become nuclear. The materials themselves have to be able to produce a high amount of energy to be able to create that amount of destruction. If you have a chance to look at a periodic table, you'll notice the Hydrogen atom at the very beginning. The most popular type of nuclear bomb is the Hydrogen bomb, in which you take a hydrogen atom, and split it up into smaller parts.. However, this in itself takes huge amounts of energy and the energy released from this exothermic (energy-releasing) reaction is why it's so devastating. There's not really much materials used in a nuclear weapon other than a shell to hold the parts together upon needed release, and a machine or something of that nature to bombard the hydrogen atoms to make them split and a supply of hydrogen atoms themselves in order to make a hydrogen bomb. Now that's just one type of bomb...
What type of reaction happens inside a nuclear plant?
A nuclear chain reaction nuclear fission
What is the hbomb?
A hydrogen bomb is, by far, the most destructive weapon that mankind has ever invented. It is the most powerful type of nuclear bomb.
Is the nuclear bomb the most powerful bomb?
nuclear weapons of the fission fusion type, the so called H-Bomb, are the most powerful of all weapons but their ouput can be tailored for specific purposes. Whatever their size they are inevitably more powerful than any conventional explosive.
What were other option rather an atomic bomb?
Atomic bombs are a type of Nuclear bomb and there are 2 types of nuclear bombs. The second type of nuclear bomb is a hydrogen bomb.
Are atom bombs THE most dangerous bombs?
All bombs are dangerous, but the atom bomb is certainly one of the most devastating. The only type of bomb thus far created that is more powerful than an atom bomb is a hydrogen bomb, which is the type of nuclear bomb that uses fusion instead of just fission. The Tsar Bomba, which is the single most powerful deviceever used, let alone bomb, is an example of a hydrogen bomb. Its yield was rated at a staggering 56 megatons of force. I've added a link below if you'd like more information.
What is the difference between nuclear bomb and plutonium bomb?
A nuclear bomb is any bomb with any nuclear or atomic material inside it, while a plutonium bomb is a specific type of nuclear bomb. Plutonium could be the nuclear material inside the bomb, and if it is, it's a plutonium bomb.
What is the most powerful type of energy known today?
nuclear energy
What type of nuclear reaction does the hydrogen bomb rely on?
Nuclear fusion.
Is a hydrogen bomb a nuclear type of energy?
yes
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.
Maximam dengrus bomb between nuclear bomb or hydrogen bomb?
If you are asking which has the maximum danger, a hydrogen bomb is one type of nuclear bomb. In general, nuclear bombs can be fission (called atomic) or fusion (hydrogen) A fusion bomb is larger than an fission bomb, and actually uses a fission bomb to start the fusion reaction.
How many nuclear bombs?
there were two types of nuclear bombs. A "gun type" bomb and an implosion type one with a plutonium core
What is the worlds deadliest bomb?
The bomb capable of causing the most damage would be a large fusion type nuclear weapon, commonly called the H Bomb or Hydrogen Bomb. However, if it is close enough to you, even a very small regular bomb was be as deadly as could be to that person.
