multiple scientists that contributed to the creation of the first Atomic Theory: Democritus‚ Antoine Lavoisier‚ Joseph Proust‚ and John Dalton. Dalton took the information that he had taken from the three scientists prior to him and put everything into one theory. The Atomic Theory is the most well-known and accurate theory we know right now. Later on in history‚ more scientists came to contribute to the understanding of the Atomic Structure. These scientists included: Sir J.J. Thomson‚ Robert Millikan

The Progress of the Atomic structure Different theories about the atomic structure were introduced over time. These theories changed as a result of development of different experiments. Leucippus was the first to introduce the theory of atomism‚ however he didn’t write about his theories in detail. However‚ Democritus‚ his student wrote about the theory of atoms in detail. He theorised that everything was composed of atoms and that atoms are solid and indestructible. He also had a theory that

The US propelled atomic weapons in the mornings of August sixth and August ninth of 1945 to Japan‚ producing a huge number of honest deads‚ without tallying the back ones caused by the radiation that was in the place. Atomic weapons are probably the most huge executing gadgets weapons that have ever existed. This weapon can burn people that are in the epicenter of the bomb and the spots encompassing it in not more than seconds. This weapon ought to be dispensed with from earth since it is a peril

The dropping of the Atomic Bomb was an attack made on the Japanese by the Americans. Although the dropping of the Atomic Bomb by the United States helped to end World War II‚ the act was unjustified because of innocent Japanese civilians that were needlessly murdered and were not given sufficient time to surrender from the area. Consequently‚ the Japanese were defeated before and they were attempting to surrender because of the effective sea blockade and the unsuccessful bombing with conventional

Then in 1965‚ Gar Alperovitz published a the book “Atomic Diplomacy: Hiroshima and Potsdam”. He argues that the dropping of the atomic bomb “was not needed to end the war or to save lives” but was a message to the Soviet Union. Fifty years after the atomic bomb was dropped‚ Alperovitz

Oppenheimer and the Atomic Age Born April 22‚ 1904 J. Robert Oppenheimer‚ an American theoretical physicist‚ was a significant individual of the 20th century for his contributions to the Manhattan Project. Often referred to as the father of the Atomic Bomb‚ Oppenheimer led the scientific research and construction of the nuclear warhead from 1942 to 1945 (www.atomicarchive.com). This bombs’ creation not only had an initial devastating impact on human life but brought about the atomic age‚ causing controversy

GENERAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS OF NUCLEAR BOMBS According to the movie‚ TRINITY AND BEYOND: THE ATOMIC BOMB MOVIE‚ on July the sixteenth year 1945‚ at a site called "Trinity"‚ a plutonium bomb ’ was piled and taken up the top of a tower. This plutonium bomb ’ was exploded thereby generating a very high measure of flash light and a fireball that radiated through 0.6 kilometers (0.37 miles) in 2 seconds. The detonative energy or power was equivalent to 18.6 kilotons of TNT. This fume grew up
