Grams of WHAT? I am sure that 46.49 grams of water would yield less than 46.49 grams of highly enriched Uranium. Also, a nuke does not "convert a few nanograms". For one thing, it does not get "converted", it gets "released". The first ones REQUIRED 100lbs of material to go critical. Modern devices "need" less, but the designs are hardly set up where they include more than they need. To claim so is just stupid. Also, ALL of it goes fissile, so the "just there for chance" remark is stupid as well. Your brain must only weigh a few nanograms. There cannot be any more than that after stupid statements like the one you made here.

I generously donate this Earth soothing suggestion to you. That way, you might be able to recover a tiny bit of honor.

Grams of WHAT? Grams of matter converted into energy according to E = mc^2 EricP is right on the money. Nuclear binding energy is released by fission and the bits remaining afterwards weigh a little bit less. The mass difference becomes kinetic energy and electromagetic radiation. A nanogram of mass annihilated would release about 90kJ - barely enough to boil the water needed to make a small pot of tea. Regards, Martin Brown |
