The isotopes 239Pu and 241Pu are easily fissionable; also the isotopes of plutonium has a small criticall mass and the energy released by fission is enormous.
It depends which type it is. It can be Uranium or Plutonium
One was an uranium fission bomb and the other was a plutonium implsion type bomb.
The Hanford site near Richland, WA had the plutonium production reactors and extraction canyons that made and purified plutonium for implosion type bombs.
Basically, nuclear weapons are made from uranium or plutonium material and hydrogen as a chain reaction nucleus.
Nuclear bombs made from Plutonium and Uranium.
No mineral. Two metals- uranium and plutonium- are used in atomic bombs.
That may be a difficult question if you are referring to what contains plutonium then nuclear bombs and missiles contain plutonium
Uranium and Plutonium
plutonium and neutrons
No, Plutonium works too. Also in nuclear reactors (but not bombs) almost all transuranic elements work. Example, Americium makes good reactor fuel.
Uranium, plutonium or hydrogen.
Some do. Others use Uranium.
plutonium
Plutonium was used in the second nuclear bomb dropped on Japan in World War 2.
yes it is.... it is the main part of a nuclear weapon.
nuclear bomb = plutonium + weapon
In World War 2 the Nuclear bombs were Uranium and Plutonium. Nowadays they use Hydrogen.
