How many tons of tnt equals the power of a atom bomb?

How are atoms helpful to the world?
I saw this question before and I hope you mean atom bombs not just atoms. Atoms are in everything in the entire world. Atom Bombs are controversial. Someone from my generation would say there should be no atom bombs, particularly the powerful atom bombs in existence now. Others way we must have them for defense. The problem is there is a cat and mouse game that goes on. One country says I have these bombs. Another says, well we have these bombs and they are better than yours. And it goes on and on. If Josef Stalin had merely forgotten about the bombs there would have been no atom bomb arms race. Many of the bombs have been dismantled but not all of them. People fail to realize there are enough of them to destroy the entire world. So to me they are not helpful. They are the product of two little boys playing the "mine is better game and you better not get a better one."

No. Atomic bombs were used during WW2 in Japan, but they were "fission" weapons, which derived their destructive power from splitting apart the nucleus of an atom.

Hydrogen bombs were tested for the first time on November 1, 1952.
