For most immediate effects (e.g. blast, thermal flash, prompt radiation) the range of the effect is directly proportional to the cubed root of the yield. For other effects (e.g. fallout) the range is less predictable.

Are atom bombs THE most dangerous bombs?

All bombs are dangerous, but the atom bomb is certainly one of the most devastating. The only type of bomb thus far created that is more powerful than an atom bomb is a hydrogen bomb, which is the type of nuclear bomb that uses fusion instead of just fission. The Tsar Bomba, which is the single most powerful deviceever used, let alone bomb, is an example of a hydrogen bomb. Its yield was rated at a staggering 56 megatons of force. I've added a link below if you'd like more information.


Will the atom bomb really cause radiation?

Absolutely, in a fission bomb the fission products are far more radioactive than the original Uranium and/or Plutonium was. Also in either fission or fusion bombs neutron activation converts stable isotopes to radioactive ones.

no unless if you drop it down a hole that goes straight to the atom clasher in France and at the exact same time that they were clashing the atoms but that is impossible because it is so far down and so protected that it is impossible to get in unless your a scientist working for the atom clasher people.
