What is the equivalent amount of radiation released by chernoboyl compared compared to the atomic bomb dropped on hiroshima?
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.
What is the most powerful type of nuclear 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.
What is the hydrogren bomb?
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.
What type of reaction does the hydrogen bomb use?
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.
Why did Truman order the atomic energy commission to produce a hydrogen bomb?
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.
What is an 8 letter word that starts with an H and has to do with atomic?
Hydrogen is probably the word. Hydrogen bomb, atomic bomb...
What new bomb was made after the atomic bomb by the us?
The hydrogen bomb.
How was a more powerful bomb than the A bomb used in hiroshima?
The hydrogen was strongest compared to the atomic bombs use in Hiroshima and Nagasaki at almost 10 times.
What is the world's largest bomb?
In WW2 it was the Atomic bomb today it is the Hydrogen bomb.
What is stronger between the atomic bomb and 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.
Did the US develop the Hydrogen bomb or the Atomic bomb?
Yes, both.
Briefly explain how a hydrogen bomb works and how its differs from an atom bomb?
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.
What is the fuse for hydrogen bomb?
An Atomic bomb is the detonator for a Hydrogen bomb to create enough heat for the fission - fusion chain reaction.
What is the difference between the atomic bomb and the hydrogen bomb?
fission vs fusion
What was the name of the atomic bomb from the tv show lost?
It was a hydrogen bomb - Jughead.
What bomb did both US and the soviet union try to invent?
atomic bomb or the hydrogen bomb
What was the design of the hydrogen fusion bomb?
Basically its a blanket of heavy hydrogen (deuterium) around a "regular" atomic bomb.
