What else can I help you with?
What are the two kinds of nuclear weapons?
I could give you a few answers Implosion design Gun-type design Or I could also say Nuclear Weapon Thermonuclear Weapon aka Atomic Bomb Hydrogen Bomb
Thermonuclear fussion occurs mainly where?
Mainly in stars, although some is seen in the secondary of a thermonuclear weapon.
What is the most powerful weapon today?
A thermonuclear warhead
Can you use thermonuclear in a sentence?
"The united states tested a large thermonuclear weapon at the Nevada Test Site". "The President had all options on the table, including the possibility of global thermonuclear war."
Was the Manhattan project the best weapon during World War 2?
Yes. They came up with the development for the atomic bomb, which later turned out to be a prototype, actually. The thermonuclear bomb was later produced went information was built on the original design of the Earth-shattering weapon.
Where can you purchase a surplus thermonuclear weapon?
I'm sending your question to the FBI and CIA - I'm sure they'll be able to answer that for you.
Nuclear weapon how hot are they to the sun?
Theoretically any Thermonuclear Fusion Explosions (what happens on the surface of the sun) are the same heat.
What are some famous implode systems?
Some famous implode systems include but are not limited to nuclear weapon design, pure fission weapons, boosted fission weapons, two-stage thermonuclear weapons and pure fusion weapons to name some.
What is the difference between an atomic bomb and a thermonuclear bomb?
They are both general terms. The term "atomic bomb" can mean any nuclear weapon, either a fission weapon or a fusion weapon (the so-called hydrogen bomb). The term thermonuclear bomb is also used in general, but it usually excludes the fusion bombs. It should be noted, however, that it takes a fission bomb to generate the heat necessary to "set off" a fusion reaction and make a fusion bomb work.
How much powerful is the thermonuclear bomb than the first atomic bomb named little boy?
This was an 11 mega ton weapon compared to the 16 kilo ton weapon used in Hiroshima.
How many types of weapons are there in the world?
There are essentially three different basic types of nuclear weapons:Gun Type Uranium Fission: Weapon consists of two subcritical pieces of U-235 fired at each other at a specific speed to product the supercritical reaction and often time a yield of 10-15 Kt based on amount of fissile material used, and level of design. (Hiroshima Type Design)Plutonium Implosion Design: Weapon consists of normally a sphere of subcritical P-239 that is surrounded by explosives. Upon carefully timed detonation of these explosives surrounding the Plutonium sphere, the Plutonium compresses to a supercritical state and the full yield nuclear detonation occurs. (Nagasaki Type Design)Multi-Stage Thermonuclear Weapon: This design uses the Teller-Ulam design principle. All modern nuclear weapons in the United States Arsenal consist of this design. This weapon utilizes a Fission weapon to detonate a secondary Fusion stage. (Operation Castle Shot Bravo Test Weapon)This is a basic overview of the three different primary weapons, there are many variations and offshoots of these designs.Specific details on all of these weapons designs are still highly classified.
