2 wrights made an airplanetwo wrongs don't make a right..
But three rights make a left..
2^He is called diproton. for very small fraction of a second...Only three specific isotopes of any element have their own unique names. 3H is called tritium, 2H is called deuterium, and 1H is called protium.
Some train company started development on a nuclear locomotive. Then they estimated what it would cost.Ford started design work on a car called the Nucleon. Yes, it was an atomic car. Fortunately, it never got past the mockup stage.
I was wondering that too, I already knew that steel stiffness is pretty much constant no matter the strength/hardness. This is a big misconception among knife makers too.How is it late? What did I miss?
I guess that makes an aglet an example of a ferrule.The hard plastic-wrapped tips on the ends of shoelaces are called "aglets."
The difference between isotopes is the number of neutrons. But the nomenclature, such as H-2 or U-238 reflects the number of nucleons.I guess so it’s just that it has always been explained that way even in text books so I don’t feel bad.
Then there are bulls with a mutation of the myostatin gene...Well the mass of an "Eatin' Cow" is best to not contain a lot of fat, but meat mass. They may be "Very Large" but hopefully it is not much Fat
You are definitely confusing the words "neutron" and "nucleon," and if your textbook is mixing it up as well, you need to bring it up with your science faculty. That is not a trivial error.
That’s arguable I think, a nucleon is a particle in a nucleus so it’s 1 a proton or 2 a neutron and you already know how many protons there are because you know what element it is. I see that nucleons are the definition but it’s an odd way to define it.That is not a trivial error.
Why was that fortunate?! We would not be sitting here with a haywire climate if they had become popular…Ford started design work on a car called the Nucleon. Yes, it was an atomic car. Fortunately, it never got past the mockup stage.
Make a steel box or something that’s crash proof/resistant, I mean we make boxes that survive airplane crashes a car crash is nothing compared to that.No, we'd have nuclear fuel spilling out onto roads from time to time in crashes.
Ha! Hold my beer...Make a steel box or something that’s crash proof/resistant, I mean we make boxes that survive airplane crashes a car crash is nothing compared to that.
How can an airplane crash be less dangerous than a car crash, they are bigger and faster? Or something else?Ha! Hold my beer...
It never pays to bet against human stupidity and perversion.How can an airplane crash be less dangerous than a car crash, they are bigger and faster? Or something else?

Yep, mini nuke casks , just like the huge ones that are on Semi-Trailers; ever see one of those ?Make a steel box or something that’s crash proof/resistant, I mean we make boxes that survive airplane crashes a car crash is nothing compared to that.
In general terms, an airplane crash is more dangerous. Airplane black boxes don't absolutely, always, every time survive crashes.How can an airplane crash be less dangerous than a car crash, they are bigger and faster? Or something else?
This! I haven’t but I’d love to.Yep, mini nuke casks , just like the huge ones that are on Semi-Trailers; ever see one of those ?
The only military nuclear reactor accident I’m aware of is thisNerdy fact, California says no Nukes in my backyard to be built; yet the Navy has all the Nuke Ships docked right on their Cost at the bases. No nuke spills from those that I ever heard about ... yet...
I don’t disagree, I just don’t want people to think that everything nuclear is bad and incredibly dangerous. Because it’s not.In general terms, an airplane crash is more dangerous. Airplane black boxes don't absolutely, always, every time survive crashes.
Remember that Murphy's Law, "If anything can go wrong, it will", is not a joke or a comment on the general cussedness of the universe; it is an edict, regarding safe and reliable system designs, issued by Mr. Murphy, an engineering manager at NASA. To put it another way, "That should do" is the vilest of curses to an engineer.

If you are curious about what can happen with nuclear materials, have a look at the book Command and Control, by Schlosser. It details the way the USA looks after its nuclear weapons and details just how things can go wrong. It is a really good record of just how lucky they have been so far. The main event discusses is the "Damascus Event". I highly recommend the book, and it is sitting on my bookshelf here next to me as I type.The only military nuclear reactor accident I’m aware of is this
