In general, a fusion bomb (hydrogen bomb) is more powerful than a fission (atomic) bomb. Fusion bombs use an atomic bomb to begin the fusion reaction.
The thermonuclear bomb (with lithium deuteride) is stronger than the atomic bomb with uranium or plutonium.
They are one in the same.
the hydrogen bomb which is larger than the atomic one
Well there is no "Megaton" bombs, but there are hydrogen bombs in the megaton range and they are a lot more powerful. An Atomic bomb can destroy a city. A Hydrogen bomb can destroy a country.
Only two atomic bombs were used against man kind in war and neither of those were a thermonuclear or hydrogen bomb.
Einsteinium
No, the bomb dropped on Hiroshima was an atomic bomb using uranium as the fissile material.
A hydrogen bomb is an atom bomb; just one that uses hydrogen.
fission vs fusion
Those hydrogen bombs were 20 times stronger at the beginning and later all got worst in the arms race.
An H-Bomb is 1000 times stronger than an atomic bomb. Atomic explosions are based on splitting atoms and is a fission explosion or fission bomb. The Hydrogen bomb (also called H-Bomb) is a Fusion reaction where atoms are forced together. Atomic bombs were used in World War II, Hydrogen bombs have been tested, but not used in war.
You are confused, a nuclear bomb is a general name covering both "atomic bomb" and "hydrogen bomb". A hydrogen bomb is typically higher yield than an atomic bomb, although it is possible to design very small low yield hydrogen bombs for special purposes that have lower yield than "typical" atomic bombs. However for "typical" hydrogen bombs their yield is roughly 1000 times the yield of a "typical" atomic bomb.
A hydrogen or fusion bomb will be ten times more powerful than the original fission atomic bomb.
Hydrogen is probably the word. Hydrogen bomb, atomic bomb...
An atomic bomb.
The hydrogen bomb.
In WW2 it was the Atomic bomb today it is the Hydrogen bomb.
Yes, both.
An Atomic bomb is the detonator for a Hydrogen bomb to create enough heat for the fission - fusion chain reaction.
