What is the difference between an atomic bomb and a thermonuclear bomb?
They are both general terms. The term "atomic bomb" can mean any nuclear weapon, either a fission weapon or a fusion weapon (the so-called hydrogen bomb). The term thermonuclear bomb is also used in general, but it usually excludes the fusion bombs. It should be noted, however, that it takes a fission bomb to generate the heat necessary to "set off" a fusion reaction and make a fusion bomb work.
How much did the 1st atomic bomb weigh?
The first atomic bomb, "Little Boy," weighed about 9,700 pounds (4,400 kg).
Briefly explain how a hydrogen bomb works and how its differs from an atom bomb?
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.
Is an atomic bomb or a nuclear bomb more powerful?
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.
What happens when a atomic bomb explodes?
When an atomic bomb explodes it forms a mushroom cloud, the explosion gives off EMP or Electro Magnetic Pulse, the explosion is huge and can destroy so much for miles, and the explosion gives off huge amounts of radiation so if you survive the explosion you can suffer or die from the radiation after the bomb blew up.
How much heat in kilojoules happens in an atomic bomb?
100,000,000 kilojoules

Did the radiation improve in Hiroshima and Nagasaki after the atomic bomb?
Yes, the radiation was much more abundant after the atomic bomb.
How much power does a atomic bomb create?
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.
How long would you have to fart to create as much energy as an atomic bomb?
Approximately a trillion years. And most people don't live that long.
atomic bomb?
much more powerful than other bomb ,also called a neuclear bomb
How much energy does an atomic bomb produce?
Alot
What was the main purpose of the hydrogen bomb?
The main purpose of the hydrogen bomb was to create a much more powerful and destructive nuclear weapon than the atomic bomb. It was designed to release energy from nuclear fusion reactions, which is many times greater than that of nuclear fission reactions used in atomic bombs.
How much destruction is an atomic bomb capable of?
An atomic weapon unleashes the power of the sun.
How much did the atomic bomb in nagasaki kill?
60,000-80,000
How much did the 1st atomic bomb weigh?
The first atomic bomb, "Little Boy," weighed about 9,700 pounds (4,400 kg).
How much did the atomic bomb fat man weigh?
2,265.985 lbs.
