No. A nuclear missile is a rocket of some kind with an atomic/nuclear bomb as its warhead.
An atomic bomb is an explosive device that obtains its energy from the atomic nucleus. it is equally valid to call it a nuclear bomb, and it can obtain this energy through either of the processes of fission and/or fusion. There are many ways an atomic bomb can be delivered to its target: aircraft, unguided rocket, guided missile, cruise missile, torpedo, depth charge, hand carried, landmine (the target comes to it), artillery shell, jeep/tripod mounted bazooka, etc. Atomic bombs were also proposed and tested for several peaceful uses: blasting for construction (e.g. highways, railroads, canals), oil industry (e.g. natural gas extraction, oil extraction from tar sands), spacecraft propulsion (Project Orion 1958 to 1963), etc. A nuclear missile usually means a guided missile with an atomic bomb (aka warhead) as its payload, the guided missile is the means of delivering that atomic bomb to its target. However it is also possible in some circumstances to interpret nuclear missile as equivalent to nuclear rocket. A nuclear rocket uses a nuclear reactor to heat a gas (e.g. hydrogen) to propel the rocket, as usually visualized the payload of a nuclear rocket is a deep space probe of some kind (but it could just as easily be a manned spacecraft or an atomic bomb).
The question you are asking is equivalent in many ways to asking "Which number is bigger 27 or 27?" as an atomic explosive and a nuclear explosive are generally considered the same. The only difference is a bomb is typically an explosive delivered by a manned airplane whereas the explosive warhead on a missile is delivered by either a rocket or an unmanned airplane called a cruise missile. Either one could be a higher yield explosive, or as I stated in the example at the beginning of this answer both could be identical.
An atomic bomb is a type of nuclear weapon that releases energy through nuclear fission (splitting of atomic nuclei). Nuclear weapon is a broader term that encompasses atomic bombs, as well as hydrogen bombs which release energy through nuclear fusion (combining atomic nuclei).
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.
A nuclear bomb and an atomic bomb are virtually synonymous. The two terms are both used to refer to a nuclear weapon. Even Wikipedia agrees. The use of either term as a search argument redirects the answer to the article Nuclear Weapon. A link is provided. from benjaminmarkiewicz that dont make any sense a nuclear bombs blow travels 100s of miles and is more powerful cause its the newly invented bomb and the atomic bombs blow travel is under a nuclear bombs travel rate

Build a missile for launching satellites into orbit. Build a nuclear bomb. Replace the satellite payload of your missile with that nuclear bomb. Adjust the missile guidance system to drop the bomb on a selected target instead of injecting it into orbit. Simple?
They are both the same thing.
The first atomic bombs cost billions because they had to learn how to gather uranium and plutonium into a form that was good enough for a bomb and they had to design the bomb. Now a nuclear missile cost would be probably about a million or more. The cost of the newer missile is in the housing and maintenance of the missile.
Atomic bombs are a type of Nuclear bomb and there are 2 types of nuclear bombs. The second type of nuclear bomb is a hydrogen bomb.
Actually, niether because they are both the same thing.
An atomic bomb is a type of nuclear weapon that releases energy through nuclear fission (splitting of atomic nuclei). Nuclear weapon is a broader term that encompasses atomic bombs, as well as hydrogen bombs which release energy through nuclear fusion (combining atomic nuclei).
If you mean "atomic" as in the Atomic Bomb, then the word "nuclear" could be substituted = Nuclear Bomb.
18th May1998, but its not atomic bomb (its nuclear bomb)
A nuclear bomb or atomic bomb
That is by definition.
