Where was the third atom bomb built?
On an island that is un-charted off the coast of Guam (U.S.A)
Why is the hydrogen bomb dependent on the atomic bomb?
A hydrogen bomb is a fusion nuclear weapon, and the "regular" atomic bomb is a fission one. Both are an example of an "atomic bomb" in the general sense. But we know what you're asking, and here's the answer. In a fission weapon, subcritical masses of fissile material (usually plutonium) are driven together with conventional explosives to cause criticality, supercriticality and the blast. In a hydrogen bomb, the only way to get things hot enough for fusion to begin to occur is by virtue of the heat generated by a fission weapon. A fission blast will, if things are set up correctly, set off a fusion blast. Big, big, bigboom! That's the long and short of it. To build a hydrogen (fusion) weapon, you have to build a fission bomb "around" or "up against" components to cause fusion to occur in the heat of the fission reaction when that fission bomb goes off. Our sun is a gigantic fusion machine. It is similar to a hydrogen bomb in that both fuse hydrogen into helium. On the sun, it happens all the time in a continuous event. Here on earth, it's a one-shot affair and a massive boom!
Are magnets present in bombs?
Yes--There are bombs that are magnetic.When two magnectics touch the bomb will go off. Sometimes it can start a charge. Bombs in general, no.
How much heat is given off an atomic bomb ie 1kt?
Follow the link to the site below. It is the A-Bomb WWW museum. According to the data on this site the heat beneath the explosion center rose to approximately 7,000 degree F. For more info on the A-bomb go to the webpage listed below http://www.csi.ad.jp/ABOMB/data.html
Why was the first atomic bomb named the little boy?
The nickname of the first atomic bomb (the one set off in the Trinity test) was "the gadget".Little Boy was the first atomic bomb designed but the one detonated; it was the one detonated over Hiroshima (so it was the first one anyone outside the Manhattan Project knew about). Little Boy was called that because of its shape: Fat Man (the third bomb, detonated over Nagasaki) and the gadget were nearly spherical, but Little Boy had a slim roughly cylindrical shape.The reason the bombs had different shapes was that they were based on different technology. Little Boy used enriched uranium, which allowed for a simpler design but was harder to obtain than the plutonium used in the other devices (plutonium could be produced in breeder reactors from the more common isotope uranium-238, and it's much easier to separate two elements than to separate two isotopes of the same element).The original plan was to use uranium for all the bombs, but the schedule only allowed time to produce enough enriched uranium for one. Rather than wait for more, they decided to try plutonium instead, and plan B was to make the same kind of bomb but with plutonium. However, testing revealed that wouldn't work: the plutonium started to go prompt-critical too quickly, and it was thought likely that the simple gun-target model used in the slimmer bomb would "fizzle" (go off too soon, with a much weaker explosion) if plutonium was used.Enter plan C: instead of taking two big pieces of plutonium and shooting one at the other (using a conventional explosive), they took a bunch of pieces and shot them all together at the center. This kept the plutonium below critical mass longer and allowed time for all the plutonium to be assembled before prompt criticality started. However, the design was larger and more complicated and they weren't sure it would even work, hence the Trinity test (the Little Boy design wasn't even tested, at least not as a full-scale assembled bomb; the scientists involved were so sure it would work they didn't consider it necessary to test first).
Who said Behold I am become Death the destroyer of worlds?
J. Robert Oppenheimer was the scientist in charge of the Manhattan Project to develop the atomic bomb in 1945. According to Oppenheimer, he saw the first bomb go off and remembered the text, "[Behold] I am become death, the destroyer of worlds."The quote is from the Hindu devotional poem, the Bhagavad Gita ("song of the blessed one" or "song of God"), circa 300 AD.(see related link)
Where did Robert oppenhiemer build the atomic bomb?
in a off the bahhmas in a ave
What famous quote did the man who invented the Atom bomb say after the bomb went off?
Physicist J. Robert Oppenheimer famously quoted the Bhagavad Gita, an ancient Hindu scripture, saying, "Now I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds." This quote reflects the weight of his realization of the impact of the atomic bomb that he helped create.
Why didn't meredith want to get up for work on the day that the bomb went off?
she had a feeling she had a feeling
What was oppenheimers IQ?
Oh, dude, Oppenheimer's IQ was like off the charts! It's been estimated to be around 160, which is like super high. I mean, the guy helped create the atomic bomb, so you know he was no slouch in the brains department.
How do you stop bomb blasts?
Once the bomb has gone off, no one can stop it.

You can take off a remote bomb in GTA 5 by pressing the D pad.
How does a cluster bomb work?
the "master" bomb is filled with "bomblets" or munitions that go off at intervals
