That is called Yield and it varies with design. I know of tested bomb designs with yields from 100 Tons to 50 Megatons TNT equivalent.

How much heat would a nuclear bomb produce?
it is impossible to tell because the force would destroy anyything, including a thermometer!
How much mechanical energy is in a nuclear bomb?
That depends on the yield.
How much did the nuclear bomb little boy weigh?
8818.4905 pounds.
Is an atomic bomb or a nuclear bomb more powerful?
The terms "atomic bomb" and "nuclear bomb" are general terms and can pretty much be used interchangeably. That said, there isn't any difference between them, and one is not more powerful than the other in that light.

There isn't much difference in these terms. Both refer to nuclear weapons, and they are general terms that can pretty much be used interchangeably.

That depends on the yield.
Whats the difference between nuclear chemistry and nuclear energy?
Nuclear energy is, primarily, the controlled (or, in a bomb, the uncontrolled) release of binding energy (Strong Atomic Force) in the nucleus of an atom by the process of fission or fusion. All nuclear power plants and the Atomic bomb use fission. The Sun and the Hydrogen bomb use fusion1. Nuclear chemistry, on the other hand, is the interrelationship between electron fields of various atoms as they interact to form various compounds, releasing and/or absorbing energy as they do so. Instead of the Strong Atomic Force, the electron field participate in the Electromagnetic Force, one of the other three primary forces. (The other two being the Weak Atomic Force, and Gravity.) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 1Technically, the Hydrogen bomb also uses fission. It requires so much energy to initiate the fusion reaction that we use an Atomic bomb to set off the Hydrogen bomb.

How much does one nuclear bomb cost taxpayer?

Where were the first nuclear bombs dropped?
A nuclear bomb has never been dropped. It was an atomic bomb that was dropped on the Japanese cities Hiroshima ans Nagasaki. An atomic bomb is a nuclear weapon. Nuclear bombs have much more impact than atomic bombs, and could potentially end the World if a nuclear war was started.
What would happen if US was hit with a nuclear bomb?
One bomb? Not much. Thousands of bombs? Severe disaster.

How much is a nuclear bomb worth?
20 Billion. That's including silos and other facility's to maintain an launch the bomb.
How much plutonium used in nuclear bomb?
In the Nagasaki bomb, about 14 pounds. Design criteria on later weapons is classified.
