What else can I help you with?
What category would a hurricane with 120 mph winds be?
A hurricane with 120 mph winds would be classified as a Category 3 hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale. Category 3 hurricanes are considered major hurricanes and have the potential to cause extensive damage.
Is it likely that a hurricane will hit Oakville Ontario?
No, Oakville is to far inland to be hit by a hurricane. It is possible for it to be affect by the remnants of a hurricane, but by that time they would be no stronger than an ordinary storm system.
How much coal coke is needed to run a blast furnace for one day?
that would depend on the size of the blast furnace.
What would you observe if you were in the eye of an hurricane?
idk
What would you do if you were caught in a hurricane?
leave the place!
What insects can survive a nuclear blast?
A direct nuclear blast - nothing. However it is said that cockroaches would possibly survive radiation where other animals would be killed.
What are the HARMFULNESS caused by nuclear blast?
The blast effects (which is all the question as worded asks about) would be the same as the blast effects of a weight of TNT identical to the nuclear bomb's yield (by definition). However a nuclear bomb has additional effects that the TNT doesn't, but as this question only asked about blast effects, I won't visit them.
Would a hurricane in North Carolina affect Maryland?
It would depend on how big the hurricane is and in what direction it is moving in.
How would a nuclear explosion affect a magnet?
First it depends on how close it is. If it is outside of the range of destruction the heat from the blast would take past the Curie point and de-magnetize it. When it cooled back down it might just align with the areas field.
What is the worst affect of a nuclear explosion?
well there has never been a very big nuclear explosion but it probably the pollution after it. Yes it would be the radiation the pollution and would affect the world for years to pass killing everything left in the world
How can you protect yourself from nuclear radiation and attacks?
You need a shelter either on your backyard or in your basement. That would get you through the blast if you get inside during the blast. After that, you need supplies to survived the rest.
Can lead save you from a nuclear blast?
Whether lead could protect you from a nuclear blast or not depends on how far from the centre of the blast you are, how thick the lead is and how powerful the blast is. Lead alone would only really protect you from the ionising radiation given off by the blast; provided that the lead is thick enough and that you were far enough away from the blast itself. If you were quite close to the blast then the explosion itself is the biggest danger to you as it is powerful enough to flatten buildings and reaches temperatures of tens of millions of degrees. A hiroshima-sized blast would vapourise almost everything within at least a 1 mile radius and would make short work of lead (which has a boiling point of only 1749 degrees.) Lead is only used to shield from ionising radiation because it is very dense and so a thinner layer of it can absorb the same amount of radiation as a much thicker layer of a less dense material. This means that, while lead alone would not make much difference close to the blast, if you were further away (preferably in a bunker) then the lead (if thick enough) would be useful to absorb most of the ionising radiation given off by the blast A better solution for protection from radiation and the blast is earth and rock. However more radiation is absorbed by smaller thicknesses of denser materials so you would need much more material between you and the blast then if you used lead. However the larger thickness of material may protect you from the blast and thermal radiation effects.
Can a scorpian survive a nuclear explosion?
No cockroaches are one of the few organisms able to survive nuclear explosions. Scorpions cannot.
What would happen if hundreds of nuclear bombs hit in one place?
the whole world would die, directly from the blast, the shockwave or nuclear radition. every piece of food would be contaminated so even if you did survive there would be nothing to eat or drink.
What kind of communcations deviceradio would be able to survive an emp blast given off by a nuclear explosion?
Vacuum tube radios.
Can a nuclear blast alter the earth's rotation?
Not anything of any size that we're capable of building now or in the foreseeable future. But give us time.And it's "nuclear", not "nucular".
Would Nuclear war help environmental degradation?
I should think nuclear war would cause all sorts of degradation. But one of the results would be contamination of the land with nuclear fall out which would be long lasting and affect generations to come.
