That is highly variable depending on many design features. The yield is directly proportional to energy release.
Yes, a hydrogen bomb, also known as a thermonuclear bomb, is a type of nuclear weapon that releases a huge amount of energy through nuclear fusion reactions. This energy release is much more powerful than that of a typical atomic bomb, which relies on nuclear fission reactions.
The first atomic bomb, "Little Boy," weighed about 9,700 pounds (4,400 kg).
A Hydrogen bomb uses heavy Hydrogen or Deuterium to create a fusion chain reaction. Before that can happen however there needs to be a smaller fission explosion (atomic bomb). The radiation from this trigger explosion is directed into a hollow chamber like a bucket pointed at the atomic bomb, which contains Deuterium. Often there is a rod of Plutonium running the length of the bucket at the centre. This is designed to amplify the chain reaction and spark fusion releasing much greater quantity of energy.OK, you asked for briefly.atomic bomb at one end of hydrogen bomb casing detonates.x-rays from atomic bomb implode hydrogen bomb, heating & raising pressure in it.when at high enough temperature & pressure, hydrogen bomb explodes.An atomic bomb is just the atomic bomb mentioned at the beginning of step 1.A full description of all the events in a typical fission-fusion-fission hydrogen bomb consists of almost 2 dozen steps. A full description of the events in a typical fission atomic bomb is less than 6 steps.
The terms "atomic bomb" and "nuclear bomb" are general terms and can pretty much be used interchangeably. That said, there isn't any difference between them, and one is not more powerful than the other in that light.
Gunpowder, TNT, C4 plastic explosive, nitroglycerin, etc. all release chemical energy that has nothing to do with the nuclei of the atoms in the chemicals. Any 'bomb' that makes an explosion with nuclear energy is a 'nuclear' bomb. The "Hydrogen Bomb" is one of them. So far, devices have been built and tested that use the atomic nucleus to make explosions in two different general ways: -- "fission" . . . the nuclear energy is released when one heavy nucleus splits into two or more lighter ones. This device is popularly known as the "Atomic Bomb". -- "fusion" . . . the nuclear energy is released when two light atomic nuclei join together to form a single one. This device is popularly known as the "Hydrogen Bomb".
Alot
Yes.
An atomic bomb releases more energy than a conventional chemical bomb because the atomic bomb releases binding, or Nuclear Strong Force, energy while the conventional bomb releases chemical energy, and there is far more binding energy (hundreds and thousands of times) than there is chemical energy from the same mass of material.
A megaton bomb is more damaging than an atomic bomb because it has a much higher explosive yield. A megaton bomb releases energy equivalent to the detonation of one million tons of TNT, while an atomic bomb typically releases energy equivalent to the detonation of thousands of tons of TNT.
Atomic and nuke bombs are thesame Atoms are very very small but there is alot of energy i them when the bomb explodes the atoms (that are very senciteve) colapse and realise a huge amount of energy. scientists are stiil suprised how so much energy can be stored in so little space
Yes, the radiation was much more abundant after the atomic bomb.
i cannot say as that depends on the details of its design, which vary significantly from bomb to bomb. however i can say that energy release and power generated are both directly proportional to yield.

much more powerful than other bomb ,also called a neuclear bomb
The bomb did not have tnt. The atomic power is measurred using tnt was the base. TNT is a unit of energy equal to 4.184 gigajoules, which is approximately the amount of energy released in the detonation of one ton of TNT, and a bomb with one kiloton has the blast compared to one ton of tnt.
Approximately a trillion years. And most people don't live that long.
An atomic weapon unleashes the power of the sun.
