Difficult to answer as it depends on many factors:

  • yield
  • height/depth of burst
  • terrain
  • weather
  • direction person is looking during burst
  • etc.

How far could you protect yourself nuclear bomb?

You wouldn't be able to protect yourself, because you will instantly die if a nuclear bomb is dropped, as it is so powerful!


How far will a nuclear bomb reach when it explodes?

That depends on yield and burst height/depth.


How far does a nuclear bomb blow?

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.


How far can a nuclear bomb travel?

A gravity dropped nuclear bomb could fall several tens of thousands of feet from bomber to detonation. A ballistic missile's warhead could travel tens of thousands of miles from launch site to detonation.


What is the difference between a hydrogen bomb and a nuclear bomb?

Gunpowder, TNT, C4 plastic explosive, nitroglycerin, etc. all release chemical energy that has nothing to do with the nuclei of the atoms in the chemicals. Any 'bomb' that makes an explosion with nuclear energy is a 'nuclear' bomb. The "Hydrogen Bomb" is one of them. So far, devices have been built and tested that use the atomic nucleus to make explosions in two different general ways: -- "fission" . . . the nuclear energy is released when one heavy nucleus splits into two or more lighter ones. This device is popularly known as the "Atomic Bomb". -- "fusion" . . . the nuclear energy is released when two light atomic nuclei join together to form a single one. This device is popularly known as the "Hydrogen Bomb".

What would be the damage if a nuclear bomb went off?

That will depend on the size of the bomb, how far above ground it explodes, and how far away it is from you.

How far can a nuclear bomb go?

It can't go any where it can travel in an aeroplane.


Is a lahar the same power as a nuclear bomb?

No. A lahar carries far less power than a nuclear bomb. However, large explosive eruptions, which can lead to lahars, can be as strong as or stronger than a nuclear explosion.

What would happen if you exploded a powerful bomb in the center of a large tornado?

For a massive wedge tornado, anything short of a nuclear bomb would probably not do much. A nuclear bomb would probably disrupt it, but at the same time would cause far more damage than the tornado itself could.


Which bomb has a faster energy nuclear bomb or atomic bomb?

I am not sure what is meant by the phrase faster energy. As far as the difference. A nuclear bomb can refer to a fission device (also known as atomic bomb). Or it can be a thermonuclear device (combining both fission and fusion reactions), which yields a larger blast energy from the same amount of material.For some reason, links are not allowed to be added right now, so go to Wikipedia and type in "Nuclear Weapon" for more information.
