During world War 2 who developed a method of storing?

During World War II, American mathematician John von Neumann contributed significantly to the development of methods for storing and processing information, particularly through his work on the architecture of electronic computers. His concept of the stored-program architecture allowed instructions and data to be stored in the same memory, paving the way for modern computing. This innovation was crucial for the development of military technology and computational methods during the war.


What are storage tanks?

Storage tanks are containers designed to hold various substances, including liquids and gases, for a specified period. They are commonly used in industries such as oil and gas, water treatment, and agriculture. These tanks can vary in size, shape, and material, depending on their intended use and the properties of the stored substances. Proper design and maintenance are crucial to ensure safety and prevent leaks or spills.


How long the atom bomb can be stored?

Under the correct conditions, indefinitely. While the mechanics of an atomic bomb can be stored a long time, assuming proper maintenance, the fuel decays noticeably over time. After about a decade of storage, the fuel has naturally fissioned enough to produce "pollutant" fission by-products which ruin the bomb's explosive potential. That is, the fuel naturally decays, and the natural decay atoms will inhibit the proper chain-reaction needed to have a usable weapon. So, the fuel will last about a decade before it needs to be removed and reprocessed. Also, if the fuel core is stored in the weapon (i.e. the weapon is stored "fully functional"), the residual radiation and heat that the fuel decay gives off causes significant problems for the weapon: the fuel configuration itself may change slightly or crack, the sensitive electronics may suffer damage from the gamma radiation emitted, and the chemical explosives may likewise suffer degradation. Overall, while the time a given weapon design can be stored varies, and the exact times are of course classified, it seems that discussions about such topics in the open literature indicate that an atomic bomb needs to be serviced and checked regularly (at least every 6 months or so), and that few can be stored for more than a decade before needing a serious overhaul.


An army's guns are stored in an?

An army's guns are generally stored in an armory. These areas are often heavily guarded. They can hold guns, ammunition, and other weapons.


What is the name of the computer that was used to calculate the ballistic course of shells during war world 2?

ENIAC. This is an acronym for Electronic Numerical Integrator And Computer. The ENIAC is Turing complete, but does not meet the generally accepted criteria for a computer because it does not have stored program capability.

How was pemmican stored for carrying?

Pemmican was traditionally stored in airtight containers such as animal hides or bark containers to prevent exposure to moisture. It was often tightly packed and compressed to remove air pockets and extend its shelf life. Additionally, it was sometimes wrapped in cloth or stored in leather bags for extra protection during long journeys.

Why should liquid medication be stored in glass bottles?

Medications stored in glass containers are usually liquid. These medications are better stored in glass due to how they sometimes react to the plastic of the other containers. Also, some of these glass containers are known to be darkened, in order to help preserve the medication in the bottle.

When explosives are stored what situation requires posting of fire symbols?

Explosives should be stored in a designated area with fire symbols posted when they are highly flammable or combustible in order to warn individuals of the potential fire hazard. This helps ensure that proper precautions are taken to prevent accidental ignition and to respond effectively to any fire emergencies that may arise.
