Thanks for the reply.
I have a question related to your term of the eqn: (pc)^2. What is the meaning of p.
I assume c is speed of light in "vacuum"
Now some bombs were delivered by airplane. The speed of an airplane is negligible when compared with c.
Therefore the second term is almost...
Thanks for answering so fast.
I don't know much about Gadget style A bombs, but my problem is this: the BRAVO bomb (March 1954) was calculated an yield of 6 Mt(between 4 to 8 Mt). The actual yield was 15 Mt an error/deviation from the original of +150%. How come?
I wonder if Einstein equation E=mc^2 was used when the A bombes were designed and tested.
How was the output estimated? Was all the matter thransformed into energy, as the equation indicates?
Were there any restrictions to how this equation ( or nny other) was used?
Thanks,
Michael
