How to make nuclear bomb-?

To make a nuclear bomb, you need the fissionable material such as a Plutonium239 isotope, an explosive to start the nuclear chain reaction, a detonator, and a pusher.


What is the difference between nuclear and thermonuclear weapons?

Nuclear weapons' yield is derived primarily from fission. Thermonuclear weapon's yield is derived mainly from fusion. Thermonuclear weapons are multistage weapons -- x-rays from a nuclear primary trigger are used to trigger ablation in the pusher of the secondary to compress it, which is responsible for the fusion reaction.


A young man exerted a force of 9000 newtons on a standstill car but was unable to move it how much work was done?

No work was done because the car did not move. Work is only done when a force is applied to an object and that object moves in the direction of the force. In this case, since the car did not move, no work was done.


How does the length of effort arm affect the amount of effort needed to lift an object?

The length of the "effort arm" of the lever clearly has a great influence on the 'effort' the pusher must input to the lever in order to do the job. But in terms of the "work" done ... in the formal sense of Work as defined in Physics = (force) x (distance) ... the length of the effort arm should have no effect on the quantity of work.


What is a thermonuclear bomb?

The Teller-Ulam design is the nuclear weapon design concept used in most of the world's nuclear weapons. Colloquially referred to as "the secret of thehydrogen bomb", because it employs hydrogen fusion to generate neutrons, in most applications the bulk of its destructive energy comes from uranium fission, nothydrogen fusion. It is named for its two chief contributors, Edward Teller and Stanisław Ulam, who developed it in 1951 for the United States. It was first used in multi-megaton-range thermonuclear weapons. As it is also the most efficient design concept for small nuclear weapons, today virtually all the nuclear weapons deployed by the five major nuclear-armed nations use the Teller-Ulam design.Its essential features, which officially remained secret for nearly three decades, are: 1) separation of stages into a triggering "primary" explosive and a much more powerful "secondary" explosive, 2) compression of the secondary by X-rays coming from nuclear fission in the primary, a process called the "radiation implosion" of the secondary, and 3) heating of the secondary, after cold compression, by a second fission explosion inside the secondary.The radiation implosion mechanism is a heat engine exploiting the temperature difference between the hot radiation channel, surrounding the secondary, and the relatively cool interior of the secondary. This temperature difference is briefly maintained by a massive heat barrier called the "pusher". The pusher is also an implosion tamper, increasing and prolonging the compression of the secondary, and, if made of uranium, which it usually is, it undergoes fission by capturing theneutrons produced by fusion. In most Teller-Ulam weapons, fission of the pusher dominates the explosion and produces radioactive fission product fallout.The first test of this principle was the "Ivy Mike" nuclear test in 1952, conducted by the United States. In the Soviet Union, the design was known as Andrei Sakharov's "Third Idea", first tested in 1955. Similar devices were developed by the United Kingdom, China, and France, though no specific code names are known for their designs.-Courtesy of Wikipedia 'Teller-Ulam design'

What is a truck pusher?

A truck pusher is a pusher for lifting trucks and the like, particularly for sheet-supported loads, in which movement of a pusher structure is effected by a plurality of pusher chains, so constructed that they are rigid when extended in substantially a straight line to compression force acting along such line but capable of being flexed, in which the free ends of the pusher chains are relatively fixedly disposed and the opposite ends extendable from and retractable towards the moveable pusher structure with the latter carrying the power source for effecting such extension and retraction of the chains.
