That will vary depending on the safing/arming system and the fusing system.
Some devices equipped with Permissive Action Links (PALs) as part of the safing/arming system will cause the device to self destruct without a nuclear explosion if the correct arming codes are not entered within a limited number of tries. The chemical explosion that destroys the device will kill you unless you were using a remote mechanism to enter the codes.
What else can I help you with?
What is a secondary explosive?
Many explosive devices consist of a primary and a secondary explosive. The primary consists of a small amount of an explosive that is very easily set off. The primary creates a small explosion that sets off the secondary explosive, which consists of a material that is much harder to set off; usually a primary explosive is the only way. The secondary explosive provides most of the energy of the device, with the primary simply being a trigger. The use of primary and secondary explosives allows for explosive devices that are less likely to go off accidentally.
What is the expected damage that would occur at an IBD if an explosive was to take place at the closest PES?
The amount of damaged caused by an IED( improvised explosive device) is hard to determine. A IED being set off near a PES (potential explosive site) would be very detrimental to the surrounding areas.
How does a clock trigger an explosive?
A clock can trigger an explosive by connecting an electrical circuit that ignites the explosive material at a specific time set on the clock. The clock functions as a timer to initiate the detonation process by providing an electrical signal to the firing mechanism of the explosive device.
Can you set off a nuclear bomb with an x ray?
no!
What happens when a nuclear bomb is set off?
It explodes.

How does C4 work?
C4 is an explosive compound known as RDX that is coated with a plastic binder. The plastic basically serves as both an protector for the explosive, and as an malleable feature for it. Since the explosive has a coating of plastic over it, to set off C4, a blasting cap or wire is usually inserted into the explosive, and a jolt of electricity sent through it to set the RDX off.
Can a C-4 explosive be set off by a microwave?
No, a C-4 explosive cannot be set off by a microwave. Microwaves operate on a different wavelength that is not capable of detonating high explosives like C-4. C-4 requires a strong and precise detonation source, such as a blasting cap, to be set off.
