A hydrogen or fusion bomb will be ten times more powerful than the original fission atomic bomb.
The Chernobyl disaster released around 400 times more radiation than the atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima. The explosion exposed millions of people to radiation and had widespread environmental consequences compared to the more localized impact of the atomic bomb.
The most powerful type of nuclear bomb is the hydrogen bomb, also known as a thermonuclear bomb. These bombs use a two-stage process, with an initial fission reaction triggering a fusion reaction, resulting in a much larger explosion compared to atomic bombs.
A hydrogen bomb, also known as a thermonuclear bomb, is a type of nuclear weapon that releases energy through the fusion of hydrogen isotopes. It is more powerful than atomic bombs, which rely on fission reactions. Hydrogen bombs are capable of causing massive destruction and are considered to be among the most powerful weapons in existence.
The hydrogen bomb uses nuclear fusion, a reaction in which two light atomic nuclei combine to form a heavier nucleus, releasing a large amount of energy. This differs from nuclear fission, which is the process used in atomic bombs where heavy atomic nuclei are split into lighter ones.
Truman ordered the production of a hydrogen bomb as a response to the Soviet Union developing their own atomic bomb. He wanted to ensure that the United States maintained a strategic advantage in nuclear weapons during the Cold War.
Hydrogen is probably the word. Hydrogen bomb, atomic bomb...
The hydrogen bomb.
The hydrogen was strongest compared to the atomic bombs use in Hiroshima and Nagasaki at almost 10 times.
In WW2 it was the Atomic bomb today it is the Hydrogen bomb.
In general, a fusion bomb (hydrogen bomb) is more powerful than a fission (atomic) bomb. Fusion bombs use an atomic bomb to begin the fusion reaction.
Yes, both.
A Hydrogen bomb uses heavy Hydrogen or Deuterium to create a fusion chain reaction. Before that can happen however there needs to be a smaller fission explosion (atomic bomb). The radiation from this trigger explosion is directed into a hollow chamber like a bucket pointed at the atomic bomb, which contains Deuterium. Often there is a rod of Plutonium running the length of the bucket at the centre. This is designed to amplify the chain reaction and spark fusion releasing much greater quantity of energy.OK, you asked for briefly.atomic bomb at one end of hydrogen bomb casing detonates.x-rays from atomic bomb implode hydrogen bomb, heating & raising pressure in it.when at high enough temperature & pressure, hydrogen bomb explodes.An atomic bomb is just the atomic bomb mentioned at the beginning of step 1.A full description of all the events in a typical fission-fusion-fission hydrogen bomb consists of almost 2 dozen steps. A full description of the events in a typical fission atomic bomb is less than 6 steps.
An Atomic bomb is the detonator for a Hydrogen bomb to create enough heat for the fission - fusion chain reaction.
fission vs fusion
It was a hydrogen bomb - Jughead.
atomic bomb or the hydrogen bomb
Basically its a blanket of heavy hydrogen (deuterium) around a "regular" atomic bomb.
