What else can I help you with?
Was the knowledge from atom bomb used to make a nuclear reactor?
No, Enrico Fermi constructed and operated the first nuclear reactor (CP-1) in 1942. Several larger nuclear reactors were needed first to make the plutonium for the MK-3 Fatman atomic bomb, which was not tested until 1945. Their principles of operation are quite different, except that both operate by nuclear chain reaction.
When was the first nuclear reactor built?
The first demonstration nuclear reactor was built in USA by Enrico Fermi in Chicago Stadium. Fermi was an Italian Physicist, best known for his work on Chicago Pile-1 (the first nuclear reactor). on 26 June 1954, in the town of Obninsk, near Moscow in the former USSR, the first nuclear power plant was connected to an electricity grid to provide power to residences and businesses. Nuclear energy had crossed the divide from military uses to civilian applications.
Countries who acquired nuclear weapons?
Currently, nine states possess nuclear weapons.United States - Tested its first nuclear weapon in 1945Russia - Tested its first nuclear weapon in 1949United Kingdom - Tested its first weapon in 1952France - Tested its first weapon in 1960China - Tested its first weapon in 1964India - Tested its first weapon in 1974Pakistan - Tested its first weapon in 1998Israel - Acquired weapons sometime between 1967-1971North Korea - Tested its first weapon in 2009Four states have ended their nuclear programsSouth Africa - de-nuclearized in 1991Belarus, Ukraine, and Kazakhstan - Returned nuclear weapons to Russia in mid-1990s.Nuclear Aspirants, but no nuclear program or weaponsGermany, Canada, Libya, Japan, Argentina, Syria.

When and where did the first nuclear reactor generate electricity?
Electricity was generated for the first time by a nuclear reactor on December 20, 1951, at the EBR-I experimental station near Arco, Idaho, which initially produced about 100 kW.
When and where was last nuclear reactor built?

What is the name of the first Indian nuclear reactor?

Who had the theory of harnessing nuclear energy?
Several people, but the most successful was the Italian physicist Enrico Fermi. He built and tested the very first Nuclear reactor on December 2nd 1942 on the University of Chicago campus in a squash court. The reactor was called "Chicago pile no. 1"
What is the Japanese Nuclear Reactor?
A Nuclear Reactor.
Can a nuclear reactor be used as a nuclear weapon?
No. LLNL even tested several Uranium-Hydride bombs in the 1950s. Even though their computer models said the devices should explode, none gave a nuclear yield. One could use the waste from the reactor as a Radiological Weapon, but the reactor itself is not useful as a weapon.
Who made the first nuclear reactor?
This was part of the Manhattan Project in WW2, the first reactor was designed by Enrico Fermi
Where was India's first nuclear reactor situated?
India's first nuclear reactor is situated in the ''Rajasthan, porbandar.''
What is the name of the first nuclear reactor of India?
Tarapur, Maharashtra, started operation 1969
