Yet by that same time, the Nazis were still years behind; they had no bomb, and still struggled to generate the atomic chain reaction needed for such a dreadful weapon. It turns out the Nazis were never ahead. But the U.S. was continually afraid they could be....
There are a few things about this induced fission process that make it interesting: The probability of a U-235 atom capturing a neutron as it passes by is fairly high. In a bomb that is working properly, more than one neutron ejected from each fission causes another fission to occur. It...
One liter of hydrogen combined with one liter of chlorine to make hydrogen chloride (HCl) Avogadro said that at the same temperature and pressure, equal volumes of the gases had the same number of molecules. So, by weighing the volumes of gases, he could determine the ratios of atomic masse...
A machine, two road miners, 5:30. I can’t compete. So I can’t compete, the monsters will be showing (of, to) their license; so, what we who usually regard with respect, of how slow, will moot: It’s too big. I’m walking about for? In one reference section, as to plenty...
That bond can also be put to practical use, says Carpenter. If you like the robot responsible for making you take medicine, you’ll be less likely you turn it off. In the military, a bond with your bomb-disposing robot could make you work more productively. “It’s going to ...
In theory, you could get them to release a huge amount of energy. If breaking up billions of atoms sounds like a real bore (like breaking billions of eggs to make an omelet), there's one more handy thing that helps: some radioactive isotopes will go on splitting themselves automatically ...
Atoms are the basis of all the elements in the universe, the building blocks of all visible matter, and the secret to nuclear power.
Enough atoms in the chunk of plutonium are breaking down at any one time to make the chunk of plutonium warm up, but not enough to be cause an explosion. Using Fission to Create a Bomb To create a bomb therefore, this natural radioactive breakdown needs to be drastically sppeded up. Acc...

Can a nuclear reactor explode like a bomb? It's obvious now thatit's impossible for a nuclear reactor to explode like an atomic bomb. However, other accidents can occur in the nuclear reactor and lead to explosions. One example is hydrogen explosion where hydrogen build-up in the reactor ...
