The yields of nuclear fi ssion bomb weapons are measuredin terms of the equivalent
Chapter 13, Problem 64(choose chapter or problem)
The yields of nuclear fi ssion bomb weapons are measuredin terms of the equivalent amount of energyproduced by 1 kiloton of TNT (1 kiloton TNT 4.2 1012J). The bomb dropped on Hiroshima, Japan,on August 6, 1945, was believed to yield 1520 kilotons.Assume that the bomb yield was 15 kilotons ofTNT and that each fi ssion reaction yields 200 MeV.What is the minimum mass of 235U that this bomb(called Little Boy) could have contained?
