What energy changes in an atom bomb?

Atomic bomb is a very danger bomb. IT emits the nucleus energy.


What is better atomic bomb or nuke?

Atomic and nuke bombs are thesame Atoms are very very small but there is alot of energy i them when the bomb explodes the atoms (that are very senciteve) colapse and realise a huge amount of energy. scientists are stiil suprised how so much energy can be stored in so little space


What is full form of A-bomb?

An A-bomb is the short form of atomic bomb, e.g. a nuclear bomb.


Can an atomic bomb destroy an entire continent?

No. Even the most powerful thermonuclear weapons don't even come close to that. Even if it were possible to create such a weapon, using it would wipe out our entire species.


Whats the difference between an atomic bomb and a regular bomb?

In a non-atomic or chemical bomb, the energy providing the explosion comes from the breaking of chemical bonds and the joining of others. An example would be ANFO, Ammonium Nitrate / Fuel Oil, probably one of the most used chemical explosives today. During the explosion the nitrate reacts with the fuel oil to produce Nitrogen, CO2 and water along with heat and pressure. In an atomic bomb the explosive energy is provided by the breaking of unstable elements, such as Uranium 235 which has a natural tendency to break down by the emission of neutrons, this is known as fission. If a large enough amount of the pure fissionable material is in contact, then it can reach critical mass as the neutrons released from one atom's decay cause two more atoms to decay, this proceeds exponentially. During fission a small amount of the mass becomes energy and using Einstein's equation, E=MC2 where E is the energy released, M is the mass converted and C squared is the speed of light squared, even a small amount of mass will release a large amount of energy. The second type of atomic bomb is a fission bomb. In this bomb 2 atoms of Hydrogen are forced together to make an atom of Helium. This is the same atomic process that powers the sun. The fission reaction is started by a fusion bomb providing the high heat and pressure to cause the atoms to unite. Again when the two atoms unite a small amount of mass is exchanged for energy.

How did albert Einstein come up with the atomic bomb?

Einstein understood that an atomic reaction would release an incredible amount of energy in a very brief time. This principle was used to create the atomic bomb.


What was Einsteins theory that was used to create the atomic bomb?

E=mc2. Because the atomic bomb contains an abundant amount of energy, and E stands for energy, used for the explosion. Which is because the atomic bomb contains a small piece of uranium which is triggered when the bomb lands. by:Kevin Sjogreen

Does the atomic bomb create energy?

In a classical context, yes - an atomic bomb releases more energy than could by liberated through exothermic chemical reactions, and therefore the energy could be said to be created, since the classical law of energy conservation is violated. . In a quantum context, no - an atomic bomb converts potential energy, stored as mass in the nucleus of an atom, into kinetic thermal energy.


Did mexico create the atomic bomb?

no


Who ordered Albert Einstein make the atomic bomb?

No one did; Albert Einstein did not create the atomic bomb.


Is a tomic bomb is an example of fusion or fission or annihilation?

An atomic bomb can be a fission bomb or a fusion bomb. Fusion bombs create more energy but fission bombs leave radioactive material and radiation.


How is the atomic bomb nuclear?

It gets its energy from the atomic nucleus.


What does atomic bomb?

An atomic bomb is a bomb that releases a tremendous amount of energy by initiating a nuclear fission chain reaction.


Why does an atomic bomb release more energy than a conventional chemical bomb?

An atomic bomb releases more energy than a conventional chemical bomb because the atomic bomb releases binding, or Nuclear Strong Force, energy while the conventional bomb releases chemical energy, and there is far more binding energy (hundreds and thousands of times) than there is chemical energy from the same mass of material.


Why did it one day to create the atomic bomb?

It didn't take 1 day to make the atomic bomb, it took most of WW2 for the US to create it with testings.
