Experiments in the early 20th century could not be explained by classical physics (developed by Galileo, Newton, etc.). Classical physics worked fine on a larger scale. However, on an extremly small scale it was flawed. Scientist started looking at things on an atomic level. This was the beginning of Quantum mechanics. This science was greatly advanced during WWII, when the military use was realized. Hope this helps some

Although I think the overall effect of technology is good, there are clearly dangers and drawbacks. Every new technology breeds unanticipated or unwanted side effects. For instance, the Industrial Revolution, while reducing manual labor in the long run, had and still has many negative consequence, such as pollution, child labor, and sweatshop conditions. Interestingly, public concerns about nuclear power have gone the other way though. When nuclear power was first developed, most people embraced the new technology until they became more aware of the potential hazards.
Yes, witness the many hundreds of nuclear power plants in the world today, most of which have operated entirely safely.
The area of technology associated with nuclear energy is nuclear technology. Forms of nuclear technology include nuclear reactors and nuclear weapons.
Britain has had nukes for a long time. After World War 2 the US shared its nuclear technology with Great Britain and Canada, and Britain developed into a nuclear armed nation.
This is a disadvantage of nuclear power. But there are even more disadvantages for coal or natural gas power generation. The technology will come to figure out what to do the waste.
The first nuclear weapons were developed in the united States under the Manhattan Proyect which made the first nuclear bombs.
No, the Republic of Djibouti does not have nuclear technology.
Political ramifications of nuclear technology include the potential for nuclear weapons proliferation, the need for international cooperation on nuclear non-proliferation agreements, the impact on energy policy and national security, and the potential for conflict arising from disputes over nuclear technology and resources.
Nuclear technology was used to power many things.
The first operational nuclear submarine, the USS Nautilus(SSN-571), was developed by the United States. The idea of a submarine dates far back in history, but the technology required to actually build an operational undersea boat is relatively new. Applying nuclear power to this concept is newer still, and it had to wait until nuclear power could be harnessed in the form of a safe and reliable nuclear reactor.

29 March 2010Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute (Kaeri) and Korean steelmaker Posco have signed an agreement to jointly study technologies for advanced nuclear reactor systems. Meanwhile, Korean researchers have developed software to ensure optimal operation of power reactors. (source: WNN>world nuclear news.)It seems that South Korea has been developing nuclear technology aiming nuclear reactors. The fragment of an article above is dated 2010, but many years ago South Korea started its nuclear reactors program and it seems that they have high technology on this field.
