How many pounds equal a megaton?
Well, mega means a million, so one megaton is basically a million pounds.
How many joules in 1 megaton?
1 megaton TNT = 4.184 petajoules ( 4.184 x 1015 J )
How many metric tons are in a megaton?
A megaton is one million tons. A metric ton (or tonne) is about 2200 lbs. A ton is 2000 lbs. Multiply 1,000,000 times 2000, ten divide by 2200, and you will get about 907,184.74 metric tons in a megaton.
How many square miles can a 10-megaton nuclear weapon destroy?
About the same number of square miles as the island of Eugelab in Eniwetok atoll in the pacific used to have. In 1952 it turned from a coral island to a crater in the Ivy Mike 10 megaton test shot.
How many nuclear bombs make a megaton of tnt?
A nuclear bomb can be made with any desired yield from about 10 tons to well over 50 megatons in one single bomb. These numbers are just for tested devices that worked, there is no theoretical upper limit on the yield of fusion based bombs.

How many kilatons in 1 megaton?
There are 1,000 kilotons in 1 megaton. The metric "kiloton" refers to a weight equivalent to 1,000 tons, while "megaton" refers to 1,000,000 tons. Therefore, 1 megaton is simply 1,000 times larger than 1 kiloton.
4 megatons equals how many tons?
Megaton and ton are different things: megaton is a unit of enery; ton a unit of weight. A megaton is the energy released from detonation of TNT. A ton is 2,000 pounds.
How many people would die in a 150 megaton thermonuclear explosion?
It depends on too many factors such as the height of the detonation, the exact yield, the geography and location and amount of people. I'd say it'd be in the millions for sure. Maybe tens of millions. Also, if you wanted to get more complex, are you including deaths due to fallout and contamination? Probably not.
How many zeros are there in megatons?
In the metric system, the prefix "mega-" denotes a factor of 1,000,000. Therefore, a megaton is equivalent to one million tons. Since a ton is equal to 2,000 pounds, a megaton is equal to 2 billion pounds. The number of zeros in a megaton is determined by the number of zeros in the numerical value of 2 billion, which is nine zeros.
