单词 hydrogen bomb
释义

Definition of hydrogen bomb in English:

hydrogen bomb

noun
  • An immensely powerful bomb whose destructive power comes from the rapid release of energy during the nuclear fusion of isotopes of hydrogen (deuterium and tritium), using an atom bomb as a trigger.

    Example sentencesExamples
    • The impact energy of 20 million tons of TNT was roughly equivalent to the power of a hydrogen bomb.
    • Later he helped develop the atomic bomb and promoted the hydrogen bomb.
    • For more than four decades, scientists have been trying to develop a method for bringing under control the awesome fusion power of a hydrogen bomb for use in commercial power plants.
    • Fusion in H-bombs is ignited by a fission chain reaction of uranium or plutonium: an atom bomb is used to set off the hydrogen bomb.
    • A hydrogen bomb is triggered by an atomic bomb, and so could only be developed by countries that already had an atomic weapon capability.
    • The atom bomb, the hydrogen bomb, and ballistic missiles had all been ‘perfected.’
    • In 1949, the Soviet Union successfully tested an atomic bomb, and in August 1953 detonated a hydrogen bomb.
    • Although China suffered from famine in the early 1960s, the country finally exploded its first atomic bomb on October 16, 1964, followed by its hydrogen bomb in 1967.
    • When a neutron is added, hydrogen's atomic mass rises to two, yielding deuterium, in isotope which is necessary for the manufacture of the hydrogen bomb.
    • The atomic bomb was superseded in the 1950s by the hydrogen bomb, the potential power of which was at least ten times that of its predecessor.
    • Ways of changing world views, both ours and ‘theirs’, may seem like an odd weapon, far more odd even than a hydrogen bomb that is too powerful to be used in a war.
    • By 1952, the United States tested a hydrogen bomb, a bomb more powerful than an atomic bomb.
    • Unbeknownst to them, the French also had developed a hydrogen bomb, almost as powerful as the US's.
    • So much energy can be released quickly that the process has also been used for the hydrogen bomb.
    • The nuclear force not only makes life on earth possible, it is also the devastating force unleashed by a hydrogen bomb, which can be compared to a piece of the sun brought down to earth.
    • Two years ago when I first revealed that the United States was considering a hydrogen bomb, there was a terrific furor.
    • It's this reaction that powers the sun and gives the explosive force to a hydrogen bomb.
