What are the similarities between nuclear reactors and nuclear bombs?
Both have critical mass, and create energy from a fission chain reaction. In nuclear bombs, the chain reaction is uncontained and spreads to all the fissionable material nearly instantaneously.
What is the similarities between an atomic bomb and nuclear bomb?
Both have critical mass and both use chain reactions
Which of the following are differences between nuclear reactors and nuclear bombs?
-both have critical mass -both use chain reactions A P E X renaa
Did the atomic bomb use fussion for its explosive power?
The atomic bombs used during World War II used fission to produce the nuclear chain reaction.
What nuclear reaction provided the massive energy of the atomic bombs dropped on Japan in 1944?
if the atomic bomb had been available in 1944 it would have been used on germany not japan. the first atomic bombs were not built until july 1945, after germany had already surrendered so they were used on japan. nuclear fission in a neutron chain reaction.
Do nuclear chain reactions happen in only uranium?
The most common fuels used in nuclear chain reactions are 235U (uranium) and 239Pu (plutonium).
Spontaneous nuclear fission processes occur by?
chain reactions
Is fusion a chain reaction?
Not exactly, nuclear chain reactions are a series of nuclear fissions initiated by neutrons produced in a preceding fission.
What atomic bombs were made from Albert Einstein's E equals mc squared?
None. The amount of energy released by an atomic bomb is an infinitesimally small fraction of the amount given by that equation. The atomic bomb is based on chain reactions: fission driven by neutron chain reaction, fusion bomb driven by high heat & pressure.
What are Controlled nuclear chain reactions?
Those reactions that take place in functioning nuclear reactors (i.e not Chernobyl or Fukushima when the accidents happened).
Is the nuclear bomb stronger than atom bomb or is it the other way?
Nuclear bomb: a class of weapons that generates force by nuclear reactions instead of chemical reactions. Nuclear reactions include atomic fission and nuclear fusion. Atomic bombs are a class of weapons that use fission reactions from either Uranium-235 or Plutonium-239. The reaction is caused by creating a critical mass of the radioactive element, which then undergoes a chain reaction causing its atoms to fission, or break apart, releasing energy in the form of heat and radiation. The byproducts of the reaction are strongly radioactive, causing further damage as "radioactive fallout". Thermonuclear fusion bombs are a class of weapons that use heavy hydrogen isotopes (deuterium and tritium) as the primary energy source. When heated to extreme temperatures by an igniter atomic bomb, the hydrogen undergoes nuclear fusion, where the atoms fuse together to form the element lithium, release energy as heat and radiation. The quantity of energy released from a hydrogen fusion reaction is much higher than that from a fission reaction, resulting in more destruction from a relatively similar physical package
What are the names of the people important people involved in Hiroshima and Nagasaki?
There were many scientist working to produce chain of reactions of nuclear proportion. Robert Oppenheimer was chosen to lead the team who made the first bombs. President Truman gave the order to drop the bombs.
