it might or might no be, one would have to know the yields of the 20 bombs as well as which eruption of vesuvius you are asking about. there is no such thing as a "typical" nuclear bomb yield or volcanic eruption.

Town which was buried by the eruption of mount vesuvius in ad 79?

Pompeii was a Roman city near what is now Naples, Italy.Pompeii was partially destroyed and buried under ash and pumice during the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in AD 79.


What are the four volcanoes?

1. Vesuvius- it killed many people around modern day Naples, or Roman Pompeii and Herculaneum with its pyroclastic flow. Hence, volcanoes that are likely to cause one of the flows if called a versuvian volcano.2. Etna- this is most famous because of an awesome eruption in early Roman days, it dwarfs most of the island of Sicily.The roman god Vulcan was named after the unpredictability of the mountain.3. Mt. Stromboli- For at least the last 20,000 years, the same pattern of eruption has been maintained, in which explosions occurred at the summit craters with mild to moderate eruptions of incandescent volcanic bombs at intervals ranging from minutes to hours.The three main volcanoes in Italy are Mt. Vesuvius, Mt. Etna and Mt. Stromboli which is in Sicily.


Where was the mt etna 2002 eruption?

the same place any mt Etna eruption is, Sicily, Italy


How do you compare and contrast mount saint helens and Mount Vesuvius?

Similarities: They are both volcanoes, they are both stratovolcanoes, they both killed people, they both erupted, they both made huge ash clouds, they both made tremors, both had magma with high viscosity


Scientists analyzed data about vesuvius in the same way that a zoologist a specimen?

Scientists analyzed data about Vesuvius in the same way that a zoologist studies by cutting apart a specimen. They closely review the data and determine what it means in relation to the thing being analyzed.

Does atomic explosion and nuclear explosion mean the same?

This question could be easily misconstrued. While atomic and nuclear explosion mean the same thing, and all atomic bombs are nuclear bombs, not all nuclear bombs are atomic bombs. The more powerful nuclear bombs are hydrogen bombs, and there is a very important fundamental difference between the two. ============================================================== A bomb is fission - the splitting of an atom H bomb is fusion - the joining together of atoms (and much more powerfull)


Are atomic bombs different from nuclear bombs?

Both basically are the same, they can be fission or fusion bombs like Uranium,Plutonium and Hydrogen bombs. A general description would be that atomic bombs are fission bombs. Nuclear bombs are fusion bombs. Fusion bombs are more powerful weight for weight


What would be the reaction if 2 neutron bombs and 2 nuclear bombs exploded in the same place?

What is the Difference in radiation - atomic vs hydrogen bombs?

The same nuclear radiation is released by both fission (atomic) and fusion (hydrogen) bombs. Hydrogen bombs are larger, and produce more.

Is an atom bomb the same as an atomic bomb?

Atomic bombs use nuclear fission to cause near perpetual chains of reactions. Nuclear warheads (Nukes) just sums up all the different types, including hydrogen bombs (which use nuclear fusion, a much more potent type of power) and atomic bombs. So yes, they are the same.


Are nuclear rockets the same as nuculear bombs?

the warhead on the rocket is similar to a bomb, delivery method is different.

Are A-Bomb and H-Bomb the same?

They are similar, but different. Research continued after WWII and developed more efficient methods of producing nuclear explosions. H-bombs are very much more powerful that A-bombs were.
