After a nuclear bomb goes off, the energy goes into everything around the place of detonation in a variety of different forms (e.g. blast wave, flying debris, light, nuclear radiation, sound, winds).

A) Most likely....you die. B) Run to your airtight bomb shelter under ground that you can stay in for a decade. C) Hope the bomb went off on the other side of the world, and it's a small one.
When people talk about nuclear bombs, they are generally in two categories; atomic and thermonuclear. Atomic bombs are like the ones dropped on Japan in 1945.Thermonuclear bombs have never been used in warfare and involve using an atomic bomb to set off an explosion of a thermonuclear bomb, like a hydrogen bomb.IN ADDITION:The Soviet exploded the largest nuclear bomb to date back in 1961. It was a hydrogen bomb which released energy equivalent to 57 megatons of TNT. Compare that to the 15 kilotons of energy released by the first atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima Japan during WWII ( 3,800 times more energy released). The name of this device was Tsar Bomba, meaning "king of bombs."
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.
Nuclear is the answer

first off, of course, a nuclear bomb is thousands of times stronger than a normal bomb. a nuclear bomb also carries radiation, energy that causes poisoning and cancer, while most normal bombs cant do that.
yes. the fallout also emits gamma rays.

An atomic bomb puts out many kinds of energy: Heat Light Radio waves Electrical And as these energies move outward, they in turn trigger many other types of energy.
It explodes.
no!
yes
The 'uranium bomb' is an A-bomb and is a first generation nuclear weapon. The hydrogen bomb or H-bomb is a 2nd generation nuclear weapon and generally many times more powerful. 'H-bomb' can also refer to 3rd generation nuclear weapons that have an additional mass off uranium to provide further fuel, triggered by the 2nd generation fusion reaction; these are the most powerful. But recent studies show that the H-Bomb has more mass, therefore more energy, and therefore has more energy. So the H-bomb is more powerful.
US, who else?
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.
