How many nuclear bombs did the US and Russia have each?
America has roughly 10000 nuclear warheads and russia has anywhere from 5200-8800
Which two countries almost let nuclear bombs on each other?
Either Russia and the US in the cold war or India and Pakistan in a standoff in 2001-2002
How do nuclear weapons prevent wars?
Today, if any country decided to send a missile over to our country, we would know via satellite that they had fired (in a matter of mere seconds). By knowing they are sending a nuclear bomb to our country, we would fire one them. This would mean a nuclear fallout; our bombs are at least thirty times stronger than the bombs released at Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945. This keeps any country from using nuclear weapons on each other for fear of nuclear fallout.
What was one major motivator of the arms race during the Cold War?
Both the Soviet Union and the United States worried that the other would build up a larger nuclear arsenal.
What types of bombs were used in the cold war?
Bombs were not used in the cold war. A cold war is one in which nations compete in military development and strength, and threaten each other politically and diplomatically, but there is no actual attack and no combat.
How many nuclear bombs does the sun release each second?
Without knowing the yield of your hypothetical nuclear bombs it is not possible to answer this question. Please clarify.
How many nuclear bombs are there in 18.5 Gigatonnes?
You'd have to know the yield of each bomb to determine the number of bombs...

What were names of some of the bombs in World War 2?
Well the only two worth remembering are the atomic bombs Fatman and Littleboy. Each bomb was dropped in Japan which hit Nagasaki and Hiroshima. Each bomb killed hundreds of thousands of Japanese citizens and soldiers. Japan shortly surrendered after that.
Do nuclear bombs use nuclear fusion or fission?
Almost all modern nuclear explosive devices use some of each. The early atomic bombs used only fission. All hydrogen bombs use both fission and fusion. Some things you might want to look up are: boosted fission bomb, external electrical fusor neutron source, the plutonium "fission sparkplug" used in each stage of a hydrogen bomb, depleted uranium hydrogen bomb tamper can provide up to 90% of the total yield through fast fission.
How did the countries threaten each other during the cold war?
They threatened each other with Nuclear War.
What happened to the Pearl Harbor when the atomic bombs happened?
Pearl Harbor is in Hawaii. The A bombs were in Japan. These places are not close to each other. Pearl Harbor was attacked by the Japanese in 1941 & the A bombs were dropped in 1945........
Why does an atomic bomb cost 23 billion?
It doesn't. The Manhattan Project cost $2 billion, but most of that was for infrastructure not bombs themselves. The 3 devices detonated in WW2 probably cost no more than $1 million each to make. Modern bombs probably cost much less than that. However actual cost figures are still classified.
