∙ 11y agoThe yield of the Trinity Atomic Bomb Test was approximately 20 kilotons of TNT. It was the first detonation of a nuclear weapon and took place on July 16, 1945, in New Mexico, USA.
The atomic bomb tested at the Trinity test site in New Mexico during World War II was a plutonium-based implosion-type bomb known as "Gadget." This test marked the first detonation of a nuclear weapon.
The atomic bomb test site was named the Trinity Test Site. It was located in New Mexico, USA, and was where the first atomic bomb was successfully detonated on July 16, 1945.
Yes, Trinity Site is the location of the first atomic bomb testing. It was the site of the Trinity Test, which was the first detonation of a nuclear weapon on July 16, 1945, as part of the Manhattan Project.

A pure fission atomic bomb with a yield of a megaton or more is theoretically impossible. The problem is that the chain reaction would happen spontaneously before the device could even be completely built and the bomb parts would melt, resulting in a fizzle and killing everyone building it.The first fusion atomic bomb (commonly called a hydrogen bomb) was tested in 1952 as Ivy Mike and had a 10 megaton yield. The highest yield pure fission atomic bomb ever built was also tested in 1952 as Ivy King and had a 500 kilotons yield.

It was called the Trinity test. It was tested in Trinity, New Mexico. It was not too far from Alamogordo New Mexico.

On July 16th 1945, the US tested their atomic bomb called Trinity in the Jornada Del Muerto desert in New Mexico. This test often marks the beginning of the Atomic Age, as the Trinity tests were followed by the atomic bomb in Nagaski, Japan in August 1945.

The Trinity Test was the first test of a nuclear device. The bomb detonated at the trinity test was an implosion-type plutonium bomb nicknamed 'the gadget' the bomb was the same type of bomb that was dropped on Nagasaki Japan.
The US, at the Trinity test site in New Mexico on July 16, 1945.
Absolutely, their spies had given them the full plans prior to the Trinity test in July.
There was only one test. The world's first atomic explosion occurred at 05:29:45 MDT on July 16, 1945, at the Trinity test site near Alamogordo, New Mexico. The bomb was dropped on Hiroshima about three weeks later, on August 6, 1945, was not the same design as the Trinity test device. The second bomb, which was dropped on Nagasaki, was similar to the Trinity device.
Nagasaki , Japan edit: If you consider test bombings, Hiroshima, Japan was actually the second place to be bombed after the Trinity nuclear test.
Plutonium was used in the Trinity test, Uranium in the first combat weapon.
