the consequences are obviously that lots of people can die and be harmed by this also there will be a lot of damage done to the prostate's area which will have to be re built

Is there any chance of a nuclear explosion from a nuclear power plant?
No. There is no possibility whatsoever of a nuclear power plant having a nuclear explosion. It is not physically, or even theoretically, possible for the core to be brought into a super-prompt critical geometry and held there long enough to consume enough fuel to "go nuclear".
If a nuclear weapon exploded on a nuclear Power Plant would the explosion radius increase?
No, but there would be more release of radioactivity because the reactor itself would probably be melted in the explosion.
What is the difference in a nuclear power plant and a nuclear bomb?
A nuclear power plant uses a slow, controlled nuclear chain reaction to heat water and generate electricity. A nuclear bomb uses a very rapid uncontrolled nuclear chain reaction in order to generate a massive explosion.
What are the accidents during the nuclear reactor?
Thankfully there haven't been many nuclear accidents, however when they do happen they can be severe the worst nuclear accident/disaster was the explosion of reactor No.4 at the Chernobyl Nuclear power plant in 1986 on April the 26th.
What would happen if A nuclear Power plant was struck with a Nuclear bomb?
AnswerThere would be a gigantic explosion AnswerThe force of the actual explosion would depend entirely on the bomb. The material in the power plant would almost certainly not contribute to the force of the explosion in any way. Nuclear explosions are not merely a matter of achieving critical mass; the critical mass has to be maintained while the explosion takes place, which is not easy. The environmental damage done by the bomb would probably be worse than if it had gone off in some other place, because the radioactive material at the power plant would be scattered to some unpredictable extent.Nuclear power plants are never, or nearly never, built in cities because of the possibility of accident. A nuclear bomb hitting a nuclear power plant would possibly cause fewer fatalities than a bomb hitting a city.
Is it possible for a nuclear plant to experience a nuclear explosion?

What would be the social consequences if a nuclear power plant exploded?
First and foremost, it is impossible for a nuclear power plant to explode. i.e. to go nuclear, because it is impossible for it to stay in prompt critical geometry long enough to consume the fuel for a runaway reaction to occur. Period. Not possible. Even if a terrorist organization infiltrated the facility and blew it up, that would be a chemical explosion, not a nuclear explosion. Yes, there would be release of radioactive materials to the environment, but it would not be a nuclear detonation as from a nuclear bomb. Get your heads straight around that. Its just not possible. The geometry is all wrong.

No, but there would be more release of radioactivity because the reactor itself would probably be melted in the explosion.
What are the method of controlling nuclear explosion?
nuclear explosion?
Was the place of nuclear plant in japan right?
Yes, the explosion happened in Japan. It was very tragic.
What types of toxicological studies are required in explosion of Japan nuclear power plant?
radiological not toxicological
