A nuclear weapon specifically functions based off of different designs. Lets take the Hiroshima weapon for simplicity as this is the least complex design that is out there. The Hiroshima bomb called little boy is a simple gun type fission weapon. The weapon was designed using U-235. When the trigger on this weapon goes off, it sends a subcritical piece of Uranium down a cannon barrel to contact another piece of Uranium at the other end. The pieces meet at a certain speed causing a super critical state to be achieved. Once this occurs the nuclear chain occurs within the Uranium causing the massive release of energy that becomes the explosion. The actual function and numbers for the design of the weapon are classified; however, that is the simplified version of how the weapon detonates.
When its fusing system triggers it.
Yes and no depending on the size of the bomb or reaction and also the size of the state if it was Texas the bomb or reaction would have to be as big as or bigger then an apartment room.But a nuclear bomb isn't the most powerful bomb in the world the most powerful bomb is a hydrogen bomb.
A nuclear bomb and an atomic bomb are virtually synonymous. The two terms are both used to refer to a nuclear weapon. Even Wikipedia agrees. The use of either term as a search argument redirects the answer to the article Nuclear Weapon. A link is provided. from benjaminmarkiewicz that dont make any sense a nuclear bombs blow travels 100s of miles and is more powerful cause its the newly invented bomb and the atomic bombs blow travel is under a nuclear bombs travel rate
this depends mostly on yield and altitude/depth of burst. it is a rather difficult function to compute.
well it depends on which kind of nuclear bomb try this http://www.carloslabs.com/projects/200712B/GroundZero.html iyou select a bomb type and then click nuke it and it rough ly shows how much damage the specific bomb would inflict.
When its fusing system triggers it.
It would depend on the size of the bomb.
Being able to make an atomic bomb to blow up people.
Depends on yield and height/depth of burst.
use nuclear bomb,999999999 kegs of dynamite and heli-R

You get a bomb then blow it up! But why?

The Trinity Test was the first test of a nuclear device. The bomb detonated at the trinity test was an implosion-type plutonium bomb nicknamed 'the gadget' the bomb was the same type of bomb that was dropped on Nagasaki Japan.
no
