American aircraft have bombed three nuclear sites in Iran, these are the places that Israeli aircraft targeted in the ongoing war with Iran. One of these targets was Fordo, which is a hidden uranium enrichment plant in a remote mountainous region which is very important for Iran’s nuclear weapons.
Israel is repeatedly attacking Iran’s place where uranium is processed so that the amount of U-235 (Uranium-235) can be increased. This process is called “Uranium Enrichment”. If Israeli eliminates Iran’s uranium enrichment bases, then the mental and nuclear weapons of this country will be reduced. Why is this and what is uranium. Let’s know
First of all, understand that uranium is used in some missiles and other weapons. Uranium is found in the ground in the form of soil or stone. Apart from this, it is also found in the sea. Uranium was discovered in 1789 by German chemist Martin Clapoth in a mineral called Pichbaland. It was named after the planet Uranus, which was discovered eight years ago. Uranium was built about 6.6 billion years ago in Supernova. It is the heaviest of all naturally found elements.
How uranium works in a bomb blast
Uranium-235 (Uranium-235), plays a lead role in nuclear weapons. It is used to create a nuclear festion bomb. This is such a radioactive element that collides with a neutron and burst into parts. This removes energy and blasts. A neutron collides with another neutron. The collision causes a blast, and neutrons come out of that blast, they collide, then there is a blast and it goes on like a chain reaction.
Like other elements, uranium is found in many different forms known as ‘isotope’. Uranium lasts for years. According to research, its age is equal to half the age of the earth. It is found in the core of the earth, due to which there is a lot of warmth.
