A nuclear bomb is a generic term for any explosive device that relies on nuclear reactions to produce a large amount of destructive force, while an atomic bomb specifically refers to a type of nuclear bomb that relies on nuclear fission reactions to release energy. Therefore, all atomic bombs are nuclear bombs, but not all nuclear bombs are atomic bombs.
No, a bomb is not necessarily a nuclear reaction. A bomb can be any device that is designed to explode and cause destruction, whereas a nuclear reaction involves the splitting or combining of atomic nuclei to release energy. Nuclear bombs, also known as atomic bombs, utilize nuclear reactions to produce a very powerful explosion.
Yes, nuclear bombs utilize nuclear energy. They rely on the process of nuclear fission or fusion to create an explosive release of energy.
The first use of nuclear energy before electricity was in the form of nuclear weapons, such as the atomic bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki during World War II in 1945.
Nuclear bombs can use either nuclear fission or nuclear fusion as the primary mechanism of energy release. Most nuclear bombs in current arsenals rely on nuclear fission reactions, while thermonuclear bombs use a fission reaction to trigger a fusion reaction.
The bombs that were dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki were atomic bombs and not nuclear bombs and were designed to explode above the ground and not on impact.
yes
Some atomic bombs explode on impact, most explode in the air for maximum destruction caused by the explosion spreading out over a wider area.
Nuclear plants don't explode, they melt down. Nuclear bombs (atom bombs) explode. There won't be any signs that a nuclear explosion is "about to occur"-- there won't be any warning unless defense computers recognize an incoming warhead missile. BUT, still, there won't be signs beforehand. Just look up the bombing of Japan.
Detonated means has caused to explode or has exploded. This is commonly used in reference to bombs and other nuclear weapons.
The nuclear was a secret before the bombs hit the targets.

Some bombs are nuclear. But most bombs are not nuclear.
no
If you mean the bombs that explode is : βόμβες
explode
