The energy is obtained from the Strong Nuclear Force, which binds the atomic nucleus together, not the Electromagnetic Force, which binds electrons to the atom. The Strong force is about 1000 times stronger than the Electromagnetic force, therefore can provide about 1000 times the energy of a chemical reaction/explosion using a similar mass of fuel.

What are some bad thing about nuclear bombs?
Nuclear bombs are so powerful, and release so much radioactive fallout, that any large-scale use of nuclear bombs would kill everbody and make the world uninhabitable.
How far can nuclear missile travel?
Depends on how it is transported. There are different types of missiles with different ranges. Also you can carry nuclear bombs on airplanes, so literally everywhere in that case.
How are nuclear weapons destroyed?
The only way that how are nuclear weapons are destroyed that these anti-nuclear working group stay together and work together to get these powerful nuclear weapons destroyed. It's possible to destroy nuclear weapons but it is a very hard and dangerous job. Want to know how nuclear weapons are destroyed? These people work as a team by staying together, they also disable nuclear missile launching systems to prevent the nuclear weapons from being launched. They work very carefully to make sure that the nuclear weapon cannot make wide explosions. They destroy the missile very carefully so that the missile cannot make very huge nuke explosion. They also stop nuclear bombs from being dropped by making sure that the bomb is destroyed but they have to place something to destroy the nuclear bomb and they must be very careful because nuclear missiles and nuclear bombs are very powerful. There should be a time bomb to destroy these weapons and don't let these weapons create big explosions. If there is then they place the time bomb on nuclear weapon, they also have to move very far away from the weapon to make sure that they are safe and can't get killed. To destroy nuclear weapons, these nukes have to be sent very far away from the city or from the town so people can't get killed by the nukes.
How far could you protect yourself nuclear bomb?
You wouldn't be able to protect yourself, because you will instantly die if a nuclear bomb is dropped, as it is so powerful!

Will it be possible to attach a nuclear missile onto a F 22 Raptor so that nuclear bombs can be fired like a missile?
nuclear missiles and nuclear gravity bombs are entirely different delivery mechanisms and do not change by being carried on a different aircraft. missiles are launched or fired, gravity bombs a passively dropped.
What was the most powerful eapon used?
So far, the bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki were the most powerful used.
How do the newer bombs compare to the bombs dropped on hiroshima and nagasaki?
The new bombs are many, many times more powerful. The Hiroshima bomb was only .02 kilotons. Twenty megatons today is common. so, hundreds of times more powerful.
Is it a cockroach or a scorpion that is the only thing that can survive nuclear wipe out?
The Cockroaches shell protects it from nuclear bombs, so in other words the cockroach.
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.
Why was their so much fear in cold war?
Because the USSR had nuclear bombs that they were threatening to use on the Americans.
Why is nuclear bombing a good thing?
Nuclear bombing isn't a good thing, but arguably, nuclear bombs are. Confused? Listen: Many nuclear weapons, as most will know, are powerful enough to destroy the planet many times over. But if they didn't exist, World War 3 may have begun, becasue everyone was so terrified of using them--they just didn't. They cannot go off accidentally, as they need to be attached to war-heads, so that fear is useless. Basically, if they didn't exist, World War 3 may have happened: but it would have been with guns and planes and smaller bombs etc.
Why is the power produced by nuclear weapons so great?
the energy comes from the strong nuclear force, which is almost unbelievably powerful.
