The main difference is test devices often have no casing, but this may not be true as some tests were done with the full operational military bomb (e.g. Crossroads Able in 1946 was a test involving dropping a MK-III bomb identical to Fatman from a B-29 over Bikini Atoll).

Is atomic bomb real?

Yes, atomic bombs are real. They are powerful nuclear weapons that release energy through nuclear fission reactions, causing devastating destruction. The first atomic bombs were developed and used during World War II in 1945.


What kind of variable is temperature change?

Temperature change is a continuous and interval variable, meaning it can take any real value within a certain range and the differences between values are consistent.


What are the differences in price between a real diamond ring or moissanite engagement ring?

Moissanite engagement rings are typically more affordable than real diamond rings due to the differences in rarity and production costs. Moissanite is a lab-created gemstone, whereas diamonds are mined from the Earth. This makes moissanite a cost-effective alternative for those seeking a similar look to diamonds at a lower price point.


What are the differences between real depth and apparent depth?

Real depth is the actual distance between two points in a medium, while apparent depth is the distance between those points as perceived by an observer due to the bending of light. Apparent depth is affected by the refractive index of the medium, causing objects to appear closer or further away than they actually are.


How large is an atomic bomb?

If you are talking about the actual physical size of the bomb device, then modern nuclear weapons can be quite compact. The typical "bomb" in a warhead of something like a ICBM or SLBM is about three cubic feet in size (.1 cubic meter), and weighs several hundred pounds (roughly 100kg or so)There have been consistent rumors of both the United States and the U.S.S.R. having developed "suitcase" nukes, which would put them at under 1 cubic foot in size and under 20kg or so in weight.If you are talking about explosive yield, current-generation strategic weapons are typically the fission-fusion-fission design, and have between 1/3 and 1/2 MT yield. This size was chosen for efficiency, giving a relatively high yield/warhead weight ratio. Tactical warheads for bombs and short-range rockets are typically boosted fission weapons, and have yields in the 50-200kt range.add there were developed atomic shells (nuclear artillery) to be fired from artillery, but these have real maintenance problems, and may no longer be in service.

What does the US create to beat the atomic bomb?

While there is no perfect defense against the atomic bomb, the US has at least attempted to create antimissile defense systems that can shoot down missiles before they arrive in the US with nuclear bombs. The only real defense is to keep them from arriving.

What was the disavdvantages of using the atomic bomb?

One disadvantage of the atom bomb was that it cost 2 billion dollars in the 1940s which amounts to 20 billion today. Radiation was a danger too. The people who are around the bomb and handle it and drop it from the plane are at risk around the radiation. There is also the possibility it could be set off by another bomb or some unforeseen accident. The concept of having to fly the bomb to its target was a real disadvantage. Now we have missiles that fly themselves and they don't have to be atomic anymore to do the damage needed.
