most cannot, as to produce weapons grade plutonium the fuel cycle must be made very very short. however soviet RBMK reactors and the US hanford N reactor were designed explicitly to produce both electric power and weapons grade plutonium.
Plutonium is a man-made actinide element that is produced in nuclear reactors and nuclear weapons. It is used as a fuel in nuclear reactors and in the production of nuclear weapons.
The first nuclear weapons were developed in the united States under the Manhattan Proyect which made the first nuclear bombs.

Yes, nuclear weapons can be scrapped. The radioactive materials can be used in nuclear power plants.
India is already a nuclear power, and they have nuclear weapons on hand. They have already made the decision to "encourage" nuclear weapons, and presumably for increasing their own security.
US, Manhattan Project.
Any decision by the UK to go to war, or to launch nuclear weapons, would have to be made by Parliament.
Nuclear weapons are made by the process of nuclear fission or fusion. This involves splitting or combining atomic nuclei to release an enormous amount of energy. The materials needed for nuclear weapons, such as uranium or plutonium, are obtained through the enrichment process.
Yes, Nuclear weapons create the biggest man-made explosions

A total of more than 70,000 nuclear weapons of various types were made, many of these were recycled to make newer models.At the peak of the cold war the US nuclear stockpile had 10,000 high yield strategic nuclear weapons and 40,000 medium and low yield tactical nuclear weapons.
