Is it possible for a human to survive a nuclear explosion?

Yes, if he's far enough away, or behind a lead shield and, still far enough away.


How far away can you see a nuclear explosion and what factors determine the visibility of such an event?

The visibility of a nuclear explosion depends on various factors such as the size of the explosion, weather conditions, and the observer's distance from the blast. Generally, a nuclear explosion can be seen from tens to hundreds of miles away, depending on these factors.


How do you protect when a nuclear explosion occurs?

Stay indoors, as far from the outside as possible.


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.


How uranium is getting exhausted?

Uranium can be exhausted by using this metal as a nuclear fuel.But we are still far from it.


Destructive radius of a five kiloton nuclear explosion?

The destructive radius of a five-kiloton nuclear explosion is typically around 500 to 700 meters, resulting in significant destruction of buildings and infrastructure in the immediate vicinity of the blast. This radius can vary depending on factors such as the height of the explosion, terrain, and weather conditions. However, it's important to note that the effects of a nuclear explosion extend far beyond the immediate blast radius due to factors like heat, radiation, and fallout.


Why is it that if a nuclear war wiped out everyone that the earths bacteria wouldn't be affected?

The vast majority of bacteria live far far underground, in rock.


How far would the effect of a nuclear explosion?

That would depend on several variables in very complicated ways:yieldburst height/depthconstruction of targetif subsurface, material at burst depthwindweatheretc.


Where in Europe was there a nuclear reactor meltdown in the 1980s?

Nowhere as far as I can find. Perhaps you are thinking of the 1986 Chernobyl steam explosion and graphite fire. This was in the USSR and although the graphite fire melted much of the core, it was not a meltdown in the usual sense associated with nuclear reactors.


Can you survive a nuke in a fridge?

No, surviving a nuclear explosion by hiding in a fridge like in the movie "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull" is not realistic. The impact and heat from a nuclear explosion would be far too extreme for a refrigerator to provide any protection. It's best to follow official safety guidelines for nuclear emergencies.


How far were the American ships from hiroshima?

The American ships were approximately 12 miles (19 kilometers) away from Hiroshima when the atomic bomb was dropped on August 6, 1945. Despite this distance, some crew members on those ships still experienced the impact and witnessed the devastating effects of the explosion.


Is it possible to create an explosion like a supernova and use it like nuclear power?

No because the explosion is catastrophic and you'd need somewhere to store all of that energy. For power generation you need something that is continuous. far better to trap the gravitational energy of a black hole, or a neutron star.
