It really depends on what country owns the nuclear weapons, if your country owns them, then the only thing you have to worry about is that it will go off by accident (Completely unlikely). But if it is an enemy country that owns them you have to watch out for nuclear attacks.

Are the atomic bomb and depleted uranium the same weapon?
No, the atomic bomb and depleted uranium are not the same thing. Nuclear weapons are made with enriched uranium or with plutonium as the fissionable material. Depleted uranium is uranium that is "left over" after natural uranium is put through a process called enrichment to inprove the concentration of the isotope U-235 over that in natural uranium. The enriched uranium with its higher percentage of U-235 is fissionable, and it can be used in nuclear reactors and in nuclear weapons. Depleted uranium is used to make armor-piercing projectiles, and can be put through the neutron flux in an operating reactor to be transformed (transmuted) into plutonium.

What did the Soviet Union do in the 1950s that scared American political leaders?

Most countries of the world have signed a treaty banning the explosion of nuclear devices above ground or in oceans what is this an example of?

Does the US believe that Japan has nuclear weapons?
This is actually a rather complicated situation.On the "yes" side: Japan certainly has the expertise, technology and equipment to construct nuclear weapons. They also have ready access to weapons-grade raw materials.On the "no" side: Japan has a non-nuclear policy (to be clear here: that refers to weapons, not reactors for generating power) and construction of nuclear weapons may be forbidden by their constitution (whether or not small "tactical" nuclear weapons would be forbidden is a question of interpretation). So far as is known, they've never conducted any nuclear weapons testing... and the US would almost certainly know if they had.Probably the best answer is: there's no particular reason to believe that Japan has nuclear weapons at this moment, but there's also no particular reason to believe they couldn't put one or more together on very short notice if they really wanted to.

Does China have the capability of sending a nuclear weapon to the USA?
Yes. All countries with nuclear weaponry do, allies and enemies alike. Not just from land-based silos, but nuclear submarines can launch nuclear warheads from anywhere in the world's oceans.Nuclear weapons are not an offensive weapon, they are more or less a defensive weapon.Having nuclear weapons is a warning to your enemies. "We have nuclear weapons too, so if you drop a nuclear bomb on us, we can do the same to you".The only time they have been used as an offensive weapon is against Japan in World War Two. Nowadays they are just a method of defence, a psychological warning aimed at other countries with nuclear weaponry.However, other than a national defence method, nuclear weapons can also be used as a planetary defence method, to defend the Earth from asteroids on a crash-course with us. A multi-national effort can be put together amongst nuclear-ready nations to destroy the asteroid before it collides with Earth and wipes out all life.
