You can't, it is always generated. However "clean" fusion bombs can be designed that reduce the fallout compared to a conventional fusion bomb of the same yield to about 5%. However the cost to build these "clean" bombs is significantly higher per megaton of yield than conventional fusion bombs.

How long is the fallout of one atomic bomb?

The fallout of an atomic bomb can last for days to weeks, depending on weather conditions and the size of the explosion. Fallout consists of radioactive particles that are carried by wind and can spread over large areas, causing long-term health and environmental effects. Evacuation and sheltering measures can help reduce exposure to fallout.


Was the atomic bomb the worlds biggest nuclear explosion?

No. Hydrogen Bombs have been detonated that make the atomic bomb look small in comparison. The Atomic Bombs dropped on Japan in WW2 were 25 Kton (equivilent to 25000 tons of dynamite), while H bombs can be as big as several hundred Megaton (million tons of dynamite)


What 2 types of energy does nuclear bombs use?

Nuclear bombs primarily use two types of energy: fission and fusion. Fission refers to the splitting of atomic nuclei to release energy, while fusion involves combining atomic nuclei to release energy, both of which are harnessed in the explosive reactions of nuclear bombs.


How is a nuclear explosion started?

A nuclear explosion is initiated by triggering a chain reaction inside a nuclear device, either through implosion or gun-type mechanisms. This chain reaction causes rapid and uncontrolled splitting of atomic nuclei, releasing an immense amount of energy in the form of heat, light, and radiation, resulting in an explosion.


Is a bomb a nuclear reaction?

No, a bomb is not necessarily a nuclear reaction. A bomb can be any device that is designed to explode and cause destruction, whereas a nuclear reaction involves the splitting or combining of atomic nuclei to release energy. Nuclear bombs, also known as atomic bombs, utilize nuclear reactions to produce a very powerful explosion.

Does atomic explosion and nuclear explosion mean the same?

This question could be easily misconstrued. While atomic and nuclear explosion mean the same thing, and all atomic bombs are nuclear bombs, not all nuclear bombs are atomic bombs. The more powerful nuclear bombs are hydrogen bombs, and there is a very important fundamental difference between the two. ============================================================== A bomb is fission - the splitting of an atom H bomb is fusion - the joining together of atoms (and much more powerfull)

Why did radiation occur after the atomic bomb hit Japan?

The atomic bombs are nuclear weapons that use a nuclear chain reaction to create a Hugh explosion. The by-product of the nuclear blast is radiation.Atomic explosion is created by setting off a lot of dynamite around a core of nuclear material. The blast compresses the material together and makes it unstable.A hydrogen bomb is a much more powerful bomb. It is the result of a small nuclear explosion that compresses more powerful radioactive material together and thus creating an explosion that is 100 times greater than an atomic bomb.
