The binding energies within atoms are many orders of magnitude greater than the binding energies of molecules. The nuclear weapon detonated at Hiroshima was about 15 kt, i.e. the equivalent of 15,000 tons of TNT. This note on Sept. 11, 2007.

Description:
Handwritten 1818 commonplace book. 38 handwritten pages, 6" x 4." England.While the writer of this book remains unnamed, flipping through the pages offers an intimate look into their thoughts, ideas, and reading habits. Writings in this book range from the political, "The paper money system is a system of murder as well as robbery," to the thoughtful, "An artichoke and a pineapple have the same shape, but what a difference in flavor!" to the biting, "Women have such a tedious manner of telling a story..." The latter half of the book is entitled, "Memorandum," and appears to be mostly concerned with matters of business. There quotes and verses of poems that the writer found inspiring, such as an excerpt from Voltaire: "The art of instructing succeeds better than the art of lampooning, because satire dies with those who are its victims, but...virtue is immortal." Other excerpts include, "The universe appeared as a vault, wherein true comfort was entombed; and the sun himself as a lamp to show the gloomy… Read More

Inscribed with a historical note by Enola Gay Weapons Officer Morris Jeppson: "The destruction in Hiroshima was comparable with effects from previous bombing raids by hundreds of B29s. What was not known or seen before was the unexpected radiation effect. Actually there are two - primary high energy x-rays and gamma rays at the time of the explosion. This burned people and combustible materials - limited to a range of thousands of feet. The second radiation effect is from long life radioactive by-products of the fission of the U235 explosive.
