You can't.
Read the book "The Radioactive Boy Scout", it is About a Boy that attempted to build a working small nuclear breeder reactor in his parent's garden shed as part of a Merit Badge project (without telling anyone what he was trying to do). The end result was he exposed himself to excessive radiation, prohibiting him for life from working in anyplace involving radioactivity and the entire backyard of his parent's house becoming radioactive hazardous waste and had to be ug up and disposed of.
His "nuclear reactor" did multiply neutrons, but never reached a stable chain reaction (if it had he would have probably died of the radiation exposure as it was not adequately shielded).
The fuel he used was a mixture of natural uranium ore and americium-241 from stolen smoke detectors. The moderator was paraffin wax. It included a thorium oxide breeding blanket, intended to breed uranium-233 as additional fuel. It had no cooling system and the paraffin wax moderator would have melted out shutting it down had it actually reached a stable chain reaction.
What else can I help you with?
Can a 7th grader use how well does a football helmet really protect against impact for a science fair project?
es, that is the topic of my science fair project......
What can you use instead of teeth for your science fair project?
Eggshells or shells
Use demonstration in a sentence?
The demonstration was boring We had to do a demonstration on our science project.
What is science investigatory project?
s.i.p. is an invention and you should use yiur skills in doing it...
How can I make a title of my science investigatory project?
There various ideas that you can use to make a title of your science investigatory project. You can come up with a title based on the content, the process or the end result expected.
Do geologists use nuclear?
Nuclear explosives, no! Nuclear dating methods, yes.
Is nuclear energy topic good for physics project?
No. Nuclear reactors would be a good project for science, but don't use much physics. Try nuclear weapons. A gun assembly or implosion type fission bomb both use a lot of physics.
Did atomic bombs work by atomic fission?
all nuclear explosives use some fission. even now.
What can you use a mini fan for in a project?
U COULD USE IT IN A SCIENCE PROJECT like for alternative energy project or a speed of things project
What are long effects of the Manhattan project?
The Manhattan Project had profound long-term effects on science, politics, and society. It led to the development of nuclear weapons, fundamentally altering military strategy and international relations, particularly during the Cold War. The project also spurred advancements in nuclear energy and medical technologies through nuclear applications. Additionally, it raised ethical questions about the use of such powerful technologies, influencing public discourse and policy on weapons proliferation and energy use.
Is there any Use of nitric acid in nuclear explosives?
Nitric acid may or may not have been used in making the chemical explosives, depending on the types of explosive usedNitric acid is one of the solvents used in uranium and plutonium chemical processing and refining (so is sulfuric acid and several organic solvents)
What conventional explosives are used to trigger a nuclear weapon?
For uranium fueled atomic bombs ordinary gunpowders are adequate to assemble a critical mass without a fizzle. For plutonium fueled atomic bombs high explosives must be used to assemble a critical mass without a fizzle. The first such bombs used Composition B (a predecessor of modern C-4) and Baritol. Modern bombs use shock and fire resistant plastic bonded explosives.
How t o do a science fair project?
Just think about what you learned and use your parents to help with the project
Can a 7th grader use how well does a football helmet really protect against impact for a science fair project?
es, that is the topic of my science fair project......
How do you use science in a sentence?
My science teacher gave us a big project to do the night before it was assigned.
What can you use instead of teeth for your science fair project?
Eggshells or shells
Use demonstration in a sentence?
The demonstration was boring We had to do a demonstration on our science project.
