as you might imagine, it's a bit difficult to draw the energy of an A-Bomb...
This is a scam. the fact that they're asking for e-mails shows it. They could simply tell the results on the website. Everyone interested enough would go see.

they're not trying to take the energy of a A-bomb <.<
and fusion reactors exist all over the world oO
and it sure isn't using einstein law (well it is using the equations that einstein teorys have provided us)
e = mc*2 just says that energy equals mass times speed of light to the cube...
just the fact that it mentions speed of light should be enough to realise that that law as nothing to do with nuclear fusion reactors, not directly at least
that law says that if we ever are able to make a mass travel at the speed of light to the cube it will all be transformed into energy, wich was the introductory point for the theory that space and time are curve...etc...etc...etc
yes but they are fusing little amounts of matter so it doesn't produce much energy, so, it's not rentable. BUT if you were to draw the explosion energy from an A-bomb that would be rentable. The problem isn't the size of the reactor, it's the power it can hold. That's were I got the idea for the A-bomb, it was just an example.
@Slifin
What a smart reply. Why don't u ask him yourself and come tell the answer to us?
They've created antimatter and they dont know how to truly convert it to energy without everything in a 20 mile radius of them instantly vanishing into...no where. :P
Hrmmm.....
As for the US economy and oil, that is entirely true, but we dont depend on oil income, we depend on how much the USD costs in the world. Like...1 USD costs 1.7(is it 1.7) euro.
Edit: Please keep in mind I'm kidding about the antimatter. The effects of creating antimatter ANYWHERE near the US would cause the military and many other governments to destroy the research immediately. If anyone believes the theories, a mg of antimatter can instantly destroy all matter in a mile radius. The ultimate weapon AND the ultimate energy source, but never been created.
Another edit: Antimatter:Mirror of the Universe go there if you want to learn about antimatter. It isnt FAKE, but no one has ever actually made it yet. If only we could... I would SO love to power my car on 1kg of sugar :)
ANOTHER EDIT: Keep having to edit when I notice I said things that could be interpreted differently. Keep in mind when I say they havent created antimatter, I mean they havent created antimatter that could efficiently power a city or something....they made antihydrogen in 1980 or something..
m8 a fusion reactor the only thing it does is colide athoms of something (dunno what they use i think uranium) when these athoms colide their structure is broken from that an amount of energy is created,
what a nuclear bomb does is putting more active(active as in radioactive,like plutonium) and more athoms and colide them....that way the explosion is bigger (nukes)
and remember theres is a diference betewen fusion and fision.
I know what a fusion reactor does :s
try to collide lots of hidrogen atoms and c what u get:
Once again I say: If you could absorb all the energy released form an A bomb or an H bomb, THEN it'd be rentable. But u can't. U'll blow up.Quote:
The main fusion reaction involves concentrated deuterium and tritium (both heavy isotopes of hydrogen) -- which become spontaneously available when neutrons from the first stage explosion bombard a solid material called "lithium deuteride" located in the central column. When this hydrogen-rich mix is heated to 100 million degrees, the deuterium and tritium atoms "fuse" together, releasing enormous amounts of energy. This is the "H" or "thermonuclear" part of the bomb.
and yeah i kno the difference between fusion and fission.
Here's a short explanation on fission bombs (A-Bombs from WWII)
Quote:
When the sub-atomic particles of an atom break apart they do so with great speed. Much of this speed (or Kinetic energy) is converted to heat. This heat can be harnessed and used in nuclear weapons.
To make this energy available it is necessary to start a chain reaction. A chain reaction occurs when the sub-atomic particles from one atom smashes into another atom causing this to break apart and so on.
In a nuclear weapon all the energy that is created by a chain reaction is released almost instantaneously, which creates a tremendous, devastating explosion.
Naturally occurring atoms do not explode in chain reactions. This is because they do not contain enough fissile atoms to sustain a chain reaction To create suitable atoms for the process to occur enriching must take place.
Naturally occurring uranium 235 contains around 7 fissile atoms per thousand. This is not enough to sustain a chain reaction.
Enriched nuclear fuel contains more fissile atoms, thus they are better at sustaining a chain reaction. To enrich uranium, scientists add plutonium to it.
