When pakistan became a nuclear weapon state?

On May 28, 1998, Pakistan became a nuclear power when it successfully carried out five nuclear tests at Chaghai, in the province of Baluchistan. This was in direct response to five nuclear explosions by India, just two weeks earlier.

Widely criticized by the international community, Pakistan maintains that its nuclear program is for selfdefence, as deterrence against nuclear India. A former Prime Minister of Pakistan, Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto, offered justification for Pakistan's nuclear program when he said that if India were to produce a bomb, Pakistan would do anything it could to get one of its own. It has always been maintained by Pakistan that a nuclear threat posed to its security can neither be met with conventional means of defense, nor by external security guarantees.

What were the importance of 1949 nuclear weapons?

The development and deployment of nuclear weapons in 1949 marked a significant shift in global security dynamics. It led to the start of the nuclear arms race and heightened tensions between the United States and the Soviet Union during the Cold War. The possession of nuclear weapons also brought immense destructive power, raising concerns about the potential for global annihilation and the need for arms control agreements. Overall, it fundamentally altered the calculus of warfare and international relations.

How did nuclear weapons change history?

Nuclear weapons fundamentally altered the geopolitical landscape by creating a new paradigm of mutually assured destruction (MAD). The threat of massive, indiscriminate destruction led to a heightened focus on diplomacy and disarmament, as the Cold War standoff between the United States and Soviet Union demonstrated. Additionally, the existence of nuclear weapons increased the urgency of non-proliferation efforts, with countries striving to prevent the spread of these weapons to ensure global security.

Are nuclear weapons threat to world peace?

War is part of the human condition. We started by throwing rocks and beating each other with sticks. Every time a new technology is developed people declare that it will be the weapon that will end the ability to wage war because the cost of hate has gone up to an unacceptable level. I know of several examples the recurve bow, gunpowder, crossbows, rifles, machine guns, flame throwers, napalm, and now nuclear weapons. Nuclear weapons give cause to the war mongers to seek diplomatic and covert solutions rather than to go head to head with your opponent. But nuclear weapons have nothing whatever to do with world peace because if it did people would have already stopped shooting at each other after the first nuclear weapons were used back in 1945. In the end nuclear weapons are just another crossbow, capable of killing hundreds of thousands of people at a time. Non combatants have always born the heaviest toll of war, now the warmongers can kill us faster.

Which country first used a nuclear bomb?

Only the United States has used nuclear weapons in combat, that was the two bombs dropped by B-29s on Japan to end WW2.

How many nuclear power plants in china?

An exact number of coal burning electric power plants is hard to come by. The on-line database compiled by the Center for Global Development includes emissions data from 50,000 power plants worldwide, unfortunately proprietary licensing agreements have prevented them from revealing the fuel sources of individual plants. Also China (PRC) is now building some 50 GW of coal-burning generators every year, or the equivalent of one large power plant per week.

According to the International Energy Agency (IEA, 2008) coal generated 41% of total world electricity in 2006. Also, according to the IEA the US generates about one quarter of the world's coal fired electricity (in 2007 about 2000 of 8000 TWh). Coal burning supplies PR China, the world leader in coal consumption, with 80% of its electricity.

According to more recent (2012) US Energy Information Administration data the US has about 350 coal burning generators producing about 1,500 TWh of electricity per year.

Can twinkies survive a nuclear bomb if so why?

"Maybe, but the only lifeforms that can survive a nuclear holocaust are cockroaches."

That's not true humans can and most likely survive a nuclear holocaust simply bc unless you are caught with in 50 miles of a nuclear bomb or something of that nature you will most likely survive. For how long depends on how much radiation is left in the atmosphere and the full extent of the holocaust.

(EDIT BY: LEFCOJ) fruit flies can withstand up to 100,000 rads! that's 100 times more than a human cockroaches can only survive about 50,000 rads. if you are caught within six miles of the blast radius we will die. but...there is hope if you are about 10 miles from the blast you still want to take procautionary measures(because you might get the fallout!!!!) if you have a basement under or more than six inches below the ground HIDE IN THERE!!!! THAT IS YOUR BEST CHANCE!!!!! radiation can only go six inches under the ground. if you don't have a basement and it is safe to go outside if there is no fallout, wear boots and cover up with warm clothes that you will need to dispose of right after use, because its gonna be cold!!! that's why its called nuclear winter it will be just like winter in Alaska. you will want to dig six inches of the soil in your yard and dispose of it. but you better get a gun because once the blast is over, its gonna be hell. there will be rrobbers and looters trying to steal, or maybe kill you to get your supplies. stay in the safest place with food and water. for more information, go to www.YouTube.com and type in "Protect and Survive Videos" these vids were issued to Britain in the 1970s and80s, when the nuclear threat was very high. so be safe, stock up, and LIVE!!!!!

eventually the cockroaches will die of hunger.

You forgot two major lifeforms that will also survive: most forms of groundworms and waterbears.

I saw an episode of family guy that proved that humans can survive a nuclear holocaust. whats up alex

How deep can a nuclear submarine go?

It varies by the type of submarine. United States, Russia, United Kingdom, China, France, and India are examples of nations who have or are assumed to have nuclear submarine capabilities.

For security purposes, governments don't give out full specifications on their weapons of war, especially on something as big, expensive, and instrumental as a submarine. The true depth information is classified, probably above "Top Secret". For the general US submarine fleet, the "official" answer is typically around 600 feet. (According to one Navy instructor it was changed from 400 feet when a documentary was aired accidentally showing footage of the depth meter at a depth of around that depth.)
Any Navy in the world who operates a nuclear submarine is going to publish a low ballpark figure in the name of national security and secrecy. If everyone knew the exact depth a submarine could submerse to, it'd be easier to kill them. Wikipedia says a Soviet/Russian class Alpha submarine may have successfully operated at a depth of 4,300 feet. But rest assured whatever the published depth of submarine is, it many times greater than that.
