Who is the strongest bomb tzar bombs or atomic bomb?
The Tsar Bomba was a type of atomic bomb, specifically a thermonuclear fusion bomb. It was the highest yield atomic bomb ever built at 52 to 58 MTons depending on method of measurement.The Tsar Bomba was not the largest atomic bomb ever built, that was Ivy Mike also a thermonuclear fusion bomb. Mike's yield was only 10 MTons.
What is another name for fusion bomb?
hydrogen bomb, or a nuclear bomb
What country surrendered after two atomic bombs were dropped on it?
Japan surrendered after 1 bomb was dropped in Hiroshima, and another one in Nagasaki.
Which country develop flying bomb missile in World War 2?
An well known country that developed the flying bomb in WW2 was Nazi Germany with the V1 Bomb. However, the flying bomb can be traced back to the US in 1916 but wasn't that successful.
Did the policy of massive retaliation allow the use of nuclear weapons?
Think about it this way; you're President of the USA, and you've hear of the mutally assured destruction. If you want to destroy your country along with another one, the use your weapons against another country. That is the idea of mutually assured destruction. There has not been one bomb dropped onto any other country since 1945; Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Tests have been carried out many times since then, especially during the Cold War. But there has been no nuclear explosions know to the public since then. Nicolas Dupont
What country has launched a hydrogen bomb on another country?
None. The hydrogen bomb has never been used in war.
Is a hydrogen bomb thermonuclear?
Yes.
Does a hydrogen bomb contain uranium?
Yes, a Thermonuclear Weapon (or Hydrogen Bomb) contains a core of Plutonium-239 and Uranium-235. A hydrogen bomb (thermonuclear fusion device) is triggered by a conventional thermonuclear fission bomb, and therefore has a core of fissionable materials such as U-235 and Pu-239. The fission device acting as a trigger is in turn triggered by conventional chemical explosives.
What type of reaction occurs when a thermonuclear bomb explodes?
A fusion reaction.
Which one does more damage the atomic bomb or the thermonuclear bomb?
still, an normal atomic bomb is more powerful. a thermonuclear bomb can easily take out a base since the thermal energy it produces will easily deep-roast everything it touches, but it doesnt turn an entire city into ash in seconds, as do with a normal atomic bomb.
What would happen if a thermonuclear bomb went off?
Your mom would explode.
What are some thermonuclear weapons?
The most well known is probably the hydrogen bomb.

What elements are in atom bombs?
if the bomb is a fission bomb it will use uranium 235 for fuel. if the bomb is a thermonuclear bomb (fusion) it will use the element hydrogen and an isotope of hydrogen for fuel.
What is the purpose of an h bomb?
The H bomb is short for hydrogen bomb. It is used as a thermonuclear weapon and the only purpose of it is to destroy things or people efficiently and on a large scale.
Is the atom bomb and a nuke the same?
No, an atomic bomb uses fission, but a nuclear or thermonuclear bomb combines fission and nuclear fusion. Therefore, a nuke is more powerful than an atom bomb.
What was the largest nuclear bomb?
When people talk about nuclear bombs, they are generally in two categories; atomic and thermonuclear. Atomic bombs are like the ones dropped on Japan in 1945.Thermonuclear bombs have never been used in warfare and involve using an atomic bomb to set off an explosion of a thermonuclear bomb, like a hydrogen bomb.IN ADDITION:The Soviet exploded the largest nuclear bomb to date back in 1961. It was a hydrogen bomb which released energy equivalent to 57 megatons of TNT. Compare that to the 15 kilotons of energy released by the first atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima Japan during WWII ( 3,800 times more energy released). The name of this device was Tsar Bomba, meaning "king of bombs."
