Question

Hydrogen bomb is based on the principle of

A) nuclear fission
B) nuclear fusion
C) natural radioactivity
D) artificial radioactivity​

Answer 1

Answer:

B) nuclear fusion

Explanation:

Hydrogen Bomb is based on the principle of Nuclear Fusion.

Nuclear fusion is a reaction in which two or more atomic nuclei are combined to form one or more different atomic nuclei and subatomic particles.

The difference in mass between the reactants and products is manifested as either the release or absorption of energy.

Answer 2

Answer:

B) Nuclear Fusion

Hydrogen bombs as opposite to the working if traditional nuclear bombs use the principle of Nuclear Fusion instead of Nuclear fission.In essence two Hydrogen atoms are combined to form one Helium atom, and the loss of mass in the process is convertex into energy by the formula E=mc^2.

Hydrogen bombs have a destructive power much more than traditional nuclear bombs.

Also the process of fusion takes place at a very high temperature (10^7 K) which cannot be reached easily hence, for Hydrogen bombing to take place first traditional nuclear bombs are exploded to rech that temperature which in turn causes the fusion of Hydrogen atoms into Helium atom in an uncontrolled chain reaction causing a humongous explosion.
