Full form of a-bomb?
An atomic bomb uses nuclear fission at the atomiclevel to detonate several tons of explosives.
What is the difference between a fire bomb and a nuclear bomb?
A fire bomb is a conventional incendiary bomb: magnesium, napalm, etc. A nuclear bomb uses fission and/or fusion and is mostly a blast effect weapon.
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.
Is a bomb exploding a physical change?
An atomic bomb uses fission-- the splitting of atoms. It is purely a physical change, at first. Any gases produced in the air surrounding the explosion (which occurs before it touches the ground), along with the intense heat produced, causes chemical changes in the air.
What is full form of A-bomb?
An A-bomb is the short form of atomic bomb, e.g. a nuclear bomb.
Was the atomic bomb used in world war 2 a fission or a fusion bomb?
Fission.
Is atomic bomb fission or fusion?
Fission.
What type of bomb did us bomb japan with?
Two atomic bombs, a gun-triggered uranium fission bomb, and a plutonium-core trigger fission bomb.
How is a fission bomb different from a fusion bomb?
A fission bomb relies on nuclear fission (splitting atoms) to release energy, while a fusion bomb relies on nuclear fusion (merging atoms) to release energy. Fusion bombs are more powerful than fission bombs and are often referred to as thermonuclear or hydrogen bombs.
Maximam dengrus bomb between nuclear bomb or hydrogen bomb?
If you are asking which has the maximum danger, a hydrogen bomb is one type of nuclear bomb. In general, nuclear bombs can be fission (called atomic) or fusion (hydrogen) A fusion bomb is larger than an fission bomb, and actually uses a fission bomb to start the fusion reaction.
Is the bomb little boy a fission or fusion reaction?
The "Little Boy" bomb used in the Hiroshima bombing was a fission bomb, specifically a gun-type uranium-235 bomb. It relied on the nuclear fission of uranium-235 to release a massive amount of energy.
What is an example of uncontrolled nuclear fission reaction?
Atomic fission bomb.
What is the element first used for fission in the atomic bomb production?
The element first used for fission in an atomic bomb is uranium.
When was the nuclear bomb completed?
first fission bomb 1945first fusion bomb 1954
What is used as a trigger in a hydrogen bomb?
A traditional nuclear fission bomb is used as a trigger in a hydrogen bomb. The explosion from the fission bomb generates the high temperatures and pressures needed to initiate the fusion reaction in the hydrogen bomb.
Could the atomic bomb exist without radioactivity?
No, the atomic bomb relies on the process of nuclear fission, which produces radioactivity as a byproduct. Radioactivity is essential for the explosive power of the bomb.
What is the difference between the atomic bomb and the hydrogen bomb?
fission vs fusion
