That would really depend on the design of the weapon:
- Early US bombs were armed and disarmed by manually inserting and removing the fissile core.
- Some later US bombs were armed by manually or automatically pulling a chain or wire out of the fissile core, they could not be disarmed.
- Modern US bombs and warheads are armed with a cryptographic code entered into the PAL, I am not sure about disarming but suspect the PAL handles it too.
- Other countries may use entirely different systems or none at all.
There is usually also an entirely separate system for arming and disarming the chemical explosives component.

Can a nuclear reactor be used as a nuclear weapon?
No. LLNL even tested several Uranium-Hydride bombs in the 1950s. Even though their computer models said the devices should explode, none gave a nuclear yield. One could use the waste from the reactor as a Radiological Weapon, but the reactor itself is not useful as a weapon.
What is the biggest nuclear weapon?
The biggest nuclear weapon ever tested was the Tsar Bomba, a hydrogen bomb detonated by the Soviet Union in 1961. It had a yield of 50 megatons, making it the most powerful nuclear weapon ever detonated.
What weapon is stronger than a nuke?
A nuclear weapon is one of the most powerful weapons in existence, so it is difficult to say if there is a specific weapon that is definitively stronger. However, some may argue that certain future technologies, such as antimatter weapons or advanced cyber warfare capabilities, could potentially surpass the destructive power of a nuclear weapon.
How many rads does a nuclear weapon produce?
The amount of radiation produced by a nuclear weapon can vary depending on its size and yield. However, a single detonation of a nuclear weapon can produce tens of thousands to millions of rads within the immediate vicinity of ground zero. This level of radiation exposure can be lethal to humans and cause widespread health effects.
Could a nuclear weapon blow up a continent?
No, a single nuclear weapon is not powerful enough to blow up an entire continent. The destructive power of a nuclear weapon is concentrated in a relatively small area known as the blast radius. The impact would be devastating locally, but the effect would not extend to an entire continent.
