A Megaton is the explosive force equal to that of 1 million metric tons of TNT. It is approximately 4.2 x 1015 joules.
How many tons of TNT would it take to produce a 2 megaton explosion?
2,000,000. By definition.
Which is bigger a joule or megaton?
A megaton is bigger than a joule. A megaton is a unit of explosive force equivalent to one million tons of TNT, while a joule is a unit of energy.
How do you use the word megaton in a sentence?
This is a sentence! A megaton is an explosive force of 1 million tons of TNT.
Who is bigger joule or megaton?
A megaton is bigger than a joule. A joule is a unit of energy, while a megaton is a unit of explosive energy equivalent to one million tons of TNT.

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.
What was equal to 21000 atomic bombs?
There is no "nominal" atomic bomb, their yields can vary from less than 100 tons TNT equivalent to nearly 1 megaton TNT equivalent. Therefore there is no single meaningful answer to this question. Hydrogen bombs have no upper limit for yield!
What produces 4 Peta Joules of energy?
If I've kept my units straight, that's about a megaton of TNT. Thermonuclear bombs and earthquakes are about all I can think of that release that amount of energy in a short time.
How many pounds equal a megaton?
Well, mega means a million, so one megaton is basically a million pounds.
Which is more damaging Atom bomb or megaton bomb?
A megaton bomb is more damaging than an atomic bomb because it has a much higher explosive yield. A megaton bomb releases energy equivalent to the detonation of one million tons of TNT, while an atomic bomb typically releases energy equivalent to the detonation of thousands of tons of TNT.
