Uranium-235 (not uranium-238) is used in atomic bombs; under nuclear fission with neutrons uranium release an enormous quantity of energy (202,5 MeV per one atom of 235U).
Uranium is used in atomic bombs - bombs with uranium 235 (enriched more than 20%, with 92% or 93% being typical weapons grade uranium, also called orealloy for Oak Ridge Alloy).
Both uranium and plutonium were used extensively to make the first two atomic bombs, dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, respectively.
The weapon was developed by the Manhattan Project during World War II. It derived its explosive power from the nuclear fission of uranium 235.
Germany and United States where working to make them work. United States got it first and used first on Japan over the cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
The atomic bombs were delivered by the USS Indianoppolis
Yes, uranium can be used in atomic bombs.
Uranium which is a fuel is used in atomic bombs and in nuclear power stations.
No mineral. Two metals- uranium and plutonium- are used in atomic bombs.

Yes, uranium is used in atomic bombs as a key component for fission reactions. Both uranium-235 and uranium-238 isotopes can be used in the production of nuclear weapons, with uranium-235 being the preferred isotope due to its higher reactivity.
No mineral. Two metals- uranium and plutonium- are used in atomic bombs.
either uranium or plutonium may be used in fission bombs, hydrogen and/or lithium may be used in fusion bombs.
Uranium is a highly reactive mineral that is used as a source of atomic energy for bombs and nuclear powered generating plants
The only atomic bombs used against mankind were the ones dropped over Hiroshima and Nagasaki on August 6 and 9 1945 which were fueled by uranium and plutonium.
The weapon was developed by the Manhattan Project during World War II. It derived its explosive power from the nuclear fission of uranium 235.
No, plutonium is used more. Uranium can only be used in gun type nuclear weapons, which are rarely used.
