How much is one ton of force?
2 moving elephants
Measure of a gig a ton in a nuke?
The gigaton is a measure of blast force, equivalent to a billion tons of TNT. The largest weapon ever made, the 50 megaton (million tons of TNT) Czar Bomba, has less than one hundredth of this.
How many btu's in one ton of TNT?
3,966,000 BTUs
How much coal is required to generate 1 ton of steam?
As a rule of thumb you would need about 138 Kg of coal (26GJ/Ton) to produce 1 ton of steam.
How much energy does TNT produce?
A gram of TNT releases 980-1100 calories upon explosion. To define the tonne of TNT, this was arbitrarily standardized to 1000 thermochemical calories = 1 gram TNT = 4184 J (exactly). To put this into perspective, a gram of food carbohydrate has approximately 4 kcal of energy, versus 1 kcal for a gram of TNT. This definition is a conventional one. Explosives' energy is normally calculated using the thermodynamic work energy of detonation, which for TNT has been accurately measured at 1120 calth/g from large numbers of air blast experiments and theoretically calculated to be 1160 calth/g. The measured pure heat output of a gram of TNT is only 651 thermochemical calories ≈ 2724 J, but this is not the important value for explosive blast effect calculations. One ton(metric) = 1000 kg = 1,000,000 grams (one million), so contains 1000 million calories.
Why was the atomic bomb dropped on Japan in world war 2 have so much TNT?
The bomb did not have tnt. The atomic power is measurred using tnt was the base. TNT is a unit of energy equal to 4.184 gigajoules, which is approximately the amount of energy released in the detonation of one ton of TNT, and a bomb with one kiloton has the blast compared to one ton of tnt.

How much water required to produce 1 ton of steam?
It would take 1 ton of water to create 1 ton of steam.
What would 15000 volts to 30000 volts of electricity equal in TNT?
1 ton
How many blocks of tnt in minecraft is 1 kilo ton in the real world?
1000 blocks.
How much coal is required to generate 1 ton of steam?

4 megatons equals how many tons?
Megaton and ton are different things: megaton is a unit of enery; ton a unit of weight. A megaton is the energy released from detonation of TNT. A ton is 2,000 pounds.
How much natural gas is required to produce a ton of plastic?
Around 350 million tonnes.
How much natural gas is required to produce 1 ton of steam?
75 m3 of natural gas.
