What kind of energy conversions takes place in a nuclear bomb explosion?
In a nuclear bomb explosion, the energy conversion involves the release of nuclear energy through the process of nuclear fission or fusion. This energy is then converted into thermal energy (heat), light energy (flash of light), and mechanical energy (shockwave). The explosion results from the rapid release of this energy.
Bomb created by splitting atoms?
A nuclear bomb is created by splitting atoms through a process called nuclear fission. This releases a massive amount of energy in the form of a nuclear explosion.
What is an atom bomb?
The term atom bomb (or atomic bomb) usually refers to a bomb that obtains its energy solely through the process of nuclear fission.However technically the term is considered interchangeable with nuclear bomb, and can refer to any bomb obtaining its energy through either nuclear fission, nuclear fusion, or any combination of the two processes.
Where has the process of nuclear fusion been occurring?
The only place in which nuclear FUSION takes place is in stars (the sun included), and in the detonation of a hyndrogen bomb. If you are asking about nuclear FISSION (an entirely different process), restate the question.
How does a nuclear bomb explode?
A pure fission bomb completes its detonation in less than 10 microseconds, the fireball reaches full size in a few milliseconds. A fusion bomb takes somewhat longer but is typically more powerful.
Where does the 2nd bomb take place in the westing game?
The second bomb takes place in Shin Hoo's diner.
How does bomb works?
Depends on the bomb. Conventional bombs rely on explosives- unstable chemicals that change to another chemical product, releasing heat. Nuclear weapons rely on fissonable material, When the material is crushed together by conventional explosives, a nuclear chain reaction takes place, releasing energy.
When did China exploded its first nuclear bomb?
China's first nuclear test took place in 1964 and first hydrogen bomb test occurred in 1967.
Difference between atom bomb and hydrogen bomb?
One takes large atoms and breaks them into smaller atoms--called fission (a-bomb). The other takes really small atoms and fuses them together to make larger atoms--called fusion (h-bomb).
How did the nuclear bomb work?
I would recommend reading Richard Rhodes books: The Making of the Atomic Bomb and Dark Sun.
Is the atom bomb and a nuke the same?
Yes, atom bomb and nuke are commonly used terms to refer to nuclear weapons that release destructive energy by splitting atoms in a process called nuclear fission. In general, "nuke" is a more colloquial term while "atom bomb" is more formal.
What is the molecular formula of a hydrogen bomb?
There is no such thing. The hydrogen bomb is a very complicated mechanism, not a chemical!
