What is the difference between an atomic bomb and a nuclear weapon?

An atomic bomb is a type of nuclear weapon that releases energy through nuclear fission (splitting of atomic nuclei). Nuclear weapon is a broader term that encompasses atomic bombs, as well as hydrogen bombs which release energy through nuclear fusion (combining atomic nuclei).

What is mirror nuclie?

There is no specific scientific term known as "mirror nuclie." It is possible you may be referring to "mirror nuclei," which are pairs of atomic nuclei that have the same number of protons and neutrons, but in opposite configurations. These mirror nuclei display symmetry in certain nuclear properties.


Are the a bomb and h bomb the same?

Yes and no.A-bomb or Atomic Bomb is a generic term simply meaning a bomb getting its energy from the atom. This name has become commonly used to mean Fission bomb.Nuclear Bomb is a generic term simply meaning a bomb getting its energy from the nucleus of the atom, can be used interchangeably with Atomic bomb as a generic term.Fission Bomb is a term for a specific type of Atomic/Nuclear bomb getting its energy from the fission (breaking up) of large atomic nuclei (e.g., Uranium or Plutonium).Fusion Bomb, H-bomb, or Hydrogen Bomb is a term for a specific type of Atomic/Nuclear bomb getting its energy from the fusion (combining) of small atomic nuclei (e.g., Deuterium or Tritium).Most modern Nuclear Weapons use combinations of Fission and Fusion to get desired results. This makes it hard to put them in fixed categories.Hope this helps some to clarify things.


Which term describes the droplests of water that condense on aerosols in the sky?

The term for droplets of water that condense on aerosols in the sky is called "cloud condensation nuclei." These particles serve as the nuclei around which water vapor in the atmosphere condenses to form clouds.
