How far can a nuclear bomb travel?
A gravity dropped nuclear bomb could fall several tens of thousands of feet from bomber to detonation. A ballistic missile's warhead could travel tens of thousands of miles from launch site to detonation.
How far will a nuclear bomb reach when it explodes?
The range of destruction from a nuclear bomb explosion, including blast effects and radiation, can vary widely depending on the size of the bomb, altitude of detonation, and prevailing weather conditions. However, the immediate blast radius can extend for several miles and the radiation fallout can affect areas several tens of miles from the detonation point.
How does the hydrogen bomb work?
A hydrogen bomb, also known as a thermonuclear bomb, uses a combination of nuclear fission and nuclear fusion. The detonation of a fission bomb triggers the fusion of hydrogen isotopes (deuterium and tritium), releasing tremendous amounts of energy. This process results in a significantly more powerful explosion than a traditional atomic bomb, which relies solely on nuclear fission.
How fast does a nuclear bomb explode?
A pure fission bomb completes its detonation in less than 10 microseconds, the fireball reaches full size in a few milliseconds. A fusion bomb takes somewhat longer but is typically more powerful.
How far can a person be to be blinded by a nuclear bomb?
The distance at which a person can be blinded by a nuclear bomb depends on various factors such as the bomb's yield, altitude of detonation, and the individual's line of sight to the explosion. For a typical nuclear bomb detonated at ground level, the flash of light can cause temporary or permanent blindness within a radius of several miles. However, the exact distance can vary significantly based on the specific circumstances of the detonation.

When was the first detonation of a nuclear bomb?
1945
When was the detonation of the first nuclear bomb?
1945
Is fusion the difference between a nuclear weapon detonation and a conventional explosion?
Yes, the conventional explosives would trigger an explosion of the conventional explosives inside the nuclear bomb which would blow apart the nuclear components of the nuclear bomb, causing significant alpha emitter radiological contamination but no nuclear yield.
What is the biggest know explosion in history?
The biggest explosion in history was the detonation of the Hydrogen bomb in the Bikini Atoll in the 1950s.
What do you call the explosion called from an atomic bomb?
a nuclear explosion

Will chickens survive a nuclear bomb?
Noboby can survive a nuclear bomb if he is within explosion distance.

Where was the worlds worst nuclear explosion?
I'm not sure but the strongest bomb is the hydrogen bomb
