Anywhere from 1 to trillions, depending on:
In the so-called "hydrogen bomb" or fusion bomb, yes, there is energy released from the same reaction (hydrogen fusing to helium) as in the Sun.However, many if not most atomic bombs are fission bombs that do not involve fusion. In a fission bomb, the nuclei of uranium atoms are split, converting some of their mass to energy.All current fusion bombs include fission reactions to trigger the greater energy release from fusion. But most of the energy in very large fission-fusion bombs comes from a third-stage reaction: the fusion causes an exceptionally powerful fission reaction in a uranium shell around the bomb. This called a Teller-Ulam device or fission-fusion-fission bomb.
It is difficult to determine an exact number of nuclear warheads needed to end all life on Earth as it would depend on various factors such as targeting and the size of the warheads. However, it is believed that even a small fraction of the world's nuclear arsenal could potentially cause catastrophic global consequences.
Yes. Many countries around the world test nuclear bombs frequently. Most of these tests are underground or under water for secrecy reasons. The only other nuclear explosion used in war was the bombing of Nagasaki by the Americans, about a week after Hiroshima. The awsome (I use that word in its old-fashioned sense) effects of those two explosions caused the Japanese to surrender and World War Two to come to an end.

One, if its yield is high enough!!
It would depend on the size of the bomb.
To say how many nuclear bombs it would take to blow up the sun is almost impossible. Actually the sun is a continuously exploding thermonuclear bomb, that's where the energy comes from - fusion. It doesn't matter how many bombs you shot into the sun, it would just get hotter.
It is impossible to blow up Pluto with nuclear bombs, as it is a dwarf planet located over 3.6 billion miles away from Earth. Additionally, the use of nuclear weapons in space is banned by international laws and treaties.
depends on how big the bombs are, if they were as big as Tsar Bomba (Soviet bomb 60MT) it would take about from 15-25 no you retard it would take about 15-25 to blow the usa NT the us it would take 10 a-bombs to kill every living thing (cuz of the radiation)
It is impossible to accurately estimate the number of nuclear bombs it would take to completely destroy Earth as the amount would be so vast that it is beyond comprehension. Using nuclear bombs to destroy Earth would also have catastrophic consequences for all life on the planet.
No, this is not a possibility.
One
It is difficult to determine the exact number of nuclear bombs it would take to kill everyone in the world, as many factors such as location and size of the bombs would come into play. However, it is estimated that a few hundred strategically placed nuclear bombs could have catastrophic global consequences.
At this time the US builds no nuclear bombs. A small number of existing bombs are refurbished as needed.
The number would be classified and not in the public domain.
No nuclear bombs were tested on Easter Island.
This question is too complex to be answered here as written, it depends on:your definition of "blow up"bomb yields availableburst heights/depthsetc. for dozens of additional variables
