That varies, but as most radioisotopes produced in a typical nuclear blast are short halflife, the area is likely to be safe to reoccupy in a few weeks to months. It gets more complex to predict with many blasts (especially high fallout surface bursts). Radiological surveys should be taken first to identify any radioactive hotspots so they can be marked off as hazard zones.
The weight of a nuclear bomb can vary depending on its size and design, but they typically range from a few hundred pounds to several tons. The length of a nuclear bomb also varies based on the specific model, but they can be several feet long.
Yes, a nuclear bomb produces radiation as a result of the nuclear fission or fusion reactions that release large amounts of energy. This radiation can have immediate and long-term harmful effects on living organisms and the environment.
The number of people killed by a nuclear bomb depends on various factors such as the size of the bomb, the distance from the blast, and the preparedness of the population. A single nuclear bomb has the potential to kill hundreds of thousands to millions of people instantly or through long-term effects like radiation exposure.
A nuclear bomb kills by releasing an intense burst of heat, light, and radiation that causes widespread damage to the surrounding area. The immediate effects include burns, blast injuries, and radiation exposure, while the long-term effects may include radiation sickness and increased risk of cancer due to exposure to radioactive fallout.
The usable life span of a nuclear bomb depends on various factors such as the type of warhead, storage conditions, and maintenance. Typically, the components of a nuclear bomb can last for several decades, but regular maintenance and replacement of certain parts may be necessary to ensure their reliability.

They're very destructive and last for a long time, In other words, once you've blown up a nuclear bomb somewhere, it will still be dangerous after the initial explosion has taken place. When a nuclear bomb is used there would be nuclear radiation that would still be present where the bomb hit for quite a while

Long before the first one was made. That was the purpose of making them: to have a very dangerous bomb (all bombs are dangerous).
The long term result of the use of the Atomic bomb by the US in WW2, has been building new and larger nuclear weapons/bombs. Despite the advances in nuclear activity, it can clearly be seen that the "fear" of using the mass destruction of nuclear weapons has been that no more nuclear or atomic bombs have ever been used again.
The full details are too long to put here, I suggest reading Richard Rhodes books: The Making of the Atomic Bomb; and Dark Sun.
The survival chances of individuals near a nuclear bomb blast depend on various factors including the distance from the detonation, shelter availability, and the individual's proximity to shielding. However, the impact of a nuclear bomb is typically devastating, with the potential for widespread destruction and long-term health consequences.
