Hydrogen bomb is based on the principle of:

  1. A
    Nuclear fission
  2. B
    Natural radioactivity
  3. C
    Nuclear fusion
  4. D
    Artificial radioactivity

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

A hydrogen bomb (thermonuclear bomb) works on the principle of nuclear fusion, specifically the fusion of isotopes of hydrogen (deuterium and tritium) to form helium, releasing a massive amount of energy. Nuclear fission is used in atom bombs and as a trigger for the fusion process in a hydrogen bomb.
