Could an atomic bomb destroy the earth?
Absolutely not 100,000 cant even destroy a continent like europe. to have a bomb destroy the world it would have to weigh at least 500 petatons of tnt which is about 200 million billion tons of tnt, a lot. An atomic war world wide with thousands of unleashed bombs would do little more to the planet earth than an ant hive does in our world. A nuciance, but that is probably all it will be. Life on earth as we know it would probably be at stake though. Atomic bombs are those with the most dangerous after-effects. Radioactive fallout that will be active for 50-100 years afterwards at least. Long term effects not fully known yet.
Who was the major leader of the Soviet Union throughout the war?
Joseph Stalin, the dictator of the Soviet Union was the leader of Russia, and he did get much out of Roosevelt during conferences. He soon learned the basics of building an atomic bomb as Roosevelt was a bit loose with the subject. That lead to the Cold War in which there were enough atomic and nuclear bombs and missiles to destroy the globe, or the Earth.
Why was the atomic bomb dropped on Japan in world war 2 have so much TNT?
The bomb did not have tnt. The atomic power is measurred using tnt was the base. TNT is a unit of energy equal to 4.184 gigajoules, which is approximately the amount of energy released in the detonation of one ton of TNT, and a bomb with one kiloton has the blast compared to one ton of tnt.
Could nuclear bomb destroy US?
There are currently no nuclear weapons big enough that just one could destroy the US. It is possible that enough of them could pretty much destroy our way of life for decades to come.
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.
How much land does the largest atomic bomb destroy?
Over 12 miles.
How much energy does an atomic bomb produce?
Alot
Which is more damaging Atom bomb or megaton bomb?
A megaton bomb is more damaging than an atomic bomb because it has a much higher explosive yield. A megaton bomb releases energy equivalent to the detonation of one million tons of TNT, while an atomic bomb typically releases energy equivalent to the detonation of thousands of tons of TNT.
What other names are there for nuclear energy?
Other names for nuclear energy include atomic energy, nuclear power, and atomic power.
How much energy was in the atomic bombs that were dropped in Hiroshima?
It was about 12 kilotons.
Does a hurricane release as much energy as an atomic bomb in 1 second?
Yes.
How solar energy is critical to your lives?
Solar energy is roughly 1378 watts per meter coming on to our planet. Without this energy we would be a cold dead planet, with gravity.It is absolutely a much needed energy source.
Why does an atomic bomb release more energy than a conventional chemical bomb?
An atomic bomb releases more energy than a conventional chemical bomb because the atomic bomb releases binding, or Nuclear Strong Force, energy while the conventional bomb releases chemical energy, and there is far more binding energy (hundreds and thousands of times) than there is chemical energy from the same mass of material.
What would happen if an atomic bomb hit the earth's core?
If an atomic bomb were to hit the Earth's core, it would likely not cause a catastrophic chain reaction or destroy the core itself. The core is composed of molten iron and nickel, which are extremely dense and would absorb much of the energy from the explosion without significantly affecting the Earth's overall structure.
What happened when an asteroid hits the Earth?
depending on the size it could destroy the planet or impact in the water and not do much. It all depends on the size of said asteroid!
Is a joule the simplest form of energy?
Joule is not a form of energy, it is a unit used to measure energy. For small amounts of energy, sub-units can be used, such as millijoule, microjoule, etc. At the atomic level, the non-SI unit eV (electron-volt) is often used - which is much, much smaller than a Joule.Joule is not a form of energy, it is a unit used to measure energy.

How much energy is contained within a hurricane?
A hurricane can contain a massive amount of energy, equivalent to hundreds of atomic bombs exploding every second.
