which countries have nuclear weapon?how people are affected in recent attacks?where it happened
Answers
nuclear weapons. Five of these (the US, Russia, the UK, France and China) are members of the official owners club, who made their weapons early and had them legitimised in the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) signed in 1968, the key piece of international law governing nuclear weapons possession.
NPT has arguably been quite successful. In the 1960s it was widely anticipated that dozens of countries would get the bomb, as it appeared to be the fast track to clout and status on the world stage. But so far there have only been four rogue nuclear weapons states who ignored the NPT and made their own bombs. In order of acquisition, they are Israel, India, Pakistan and North Korea.
Has any country ever given up its nuclear weapons?
More countries have given up nuclear weapons programmes than have kept them, coming to believe they were more of a liability than an asset for national security......
he apartheid regime in South Africa secretly built six warheads, but dismantled the bombs and abandoned the whole programme in 1989 just before the system gave way to democracy.
Even Sweden had an advanced and ambitious plan based on heavy water reactors to build up to a hundred warheads, but gave up the project in the 1960s, preferring to spend defence funds on fighter planes.
The military juntas in both Argentina and Brazil pursued covert weapons programmes, although they stopped short of making a bomb, and the two countries gave up their programmes in the early nineties and joined the NPT.
Taiwan and South Korea began developing plutonium production programmes in the late sixties and early seventies before the US persuaded them to halt in the mid-seventies and rely on Washington for security. Japan is generally considered to have a “bomb in the basement”, in that it has all the materials and know-how to build a warhead quickly if it decided to follow that path and leave the NPT. At present that course seems unlikely.
Three successor countries to the Soviet Union – Ukraine, Kazakhstan and Belarus – inherited nuclear weapons in 1991, and all three agreed to surrender them, in Ukraine’s case in return for sovereignty guarantees from Russia that ultimately proved worthless.
In Iraq, Saddam Hussein dismantled his rudimentary nuclear weapons programme after the first Gulf war in 1991, and Libya’s Muammar Gaddafi handed over his nuclear weapons beginner’s set to the US in 2003. Their ultimate fate offers little incentive for future despots to give up their atomic dreams......
Plutonium Pu-239 is produced in significant quantities by extracting it from irradiated uranium fuel that has been through a reactor. The destruction unleashed by a nuclear weapon comes in many forms. There is the violent, rapid shockwave, the searing fireball, and the invisible radiation, all of which contribute to injuries, deaths and damage. The largest nuclear weapon in the US arsenal is the B83, a free-fall bomb with a yield of 1.2 megatonnes, making it some 75 times more powerful than the ‘Little Boy’ weapon detonated over Hiroshima in 1945. The devastation produced by such a bomb depends on where it explodes, but also whether it detonates on the ground or in the air.
On impact with the ground, a B83 would create a fireball nearly 3km wide, with temperatures reaching many thousands of degrees Celsius. What is not vapourised in an instant would catch fire or sustain burns. People and animals would be expected to suffer third degree burns more than 11km from the heart of the strike.
Rushing out ahead of the fireball is a powerful shockwave that can travel faster than the speed of sound at sea level, demolishing buildings in its path. The shockwave from a B83 explosion could raze sturdy concrete buildings within a 2.5km radius with near 100% fatalities, and level structurally weaker homes and shops within 5km. The blast could shatter windows more than 12km away.
Hey Friend,
Here is your answer,
〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰
➡ Nine Counties Have Neuclear Weapons.
- Russia was on 1st no. in item of Neuclear weapons. They have 6800 Neuclear weapons.
- America on no. 2,They have 6550 weapons.
- France have 300 Neuclear weapons.
- China have 270 Neuclear Weapons.
- United kingdom have 215 Neuclear weapons.
- pakistan have 130~140 Neuclear weapons.
- India have 120~130 Neuclear weapons.
- Israel have 80 Neuclear weapons.
- North korea have 10 Neuclear weapons.
➡ This nine countries have Neuclear weapons.
➡ People Come in it's radiation and affect by it.
➡ it Happened in Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Which are City of japan during World war 2nd by America.
