A 1 gram antimatter explosion on Earth would release a tremendous amount of energy, equivalent to about 43 kilotons of TNT. This would cause significant destruction in the immediate vicinity of the explosion, similar to a small nuclear bomb. The impact would depend on where the explosion occurs, but it could potentially cause widespread damage and loss of life.
What else can I help you with?
If an astronaut landed on a planet made of antimatter there would be an explosion and what?
If an astronaut landed on a planet made of antimatter, upon contact with regular matter an annihilation reaction would occur, leading to a release of energy and resulting in a large explosion of gamma rays and other particles. This would be extremely destructive and dangerous for the astronaut.
At what temperature does antimatter form?
It isn't a matter of temperature. It is created in high-speed collisions like those observed in the hadron particle collider. Antimatter is naturally occurring. It has only been created in minute amounts and costs a fortune. One kilogram of antimatter would create an explosion with the power of a 20 megaton nuclear bomb.
What would antimatter look like if it were visible to the human eye?
If antimatter were visible to the human eye, it would likely appear similar to regular matter, but with opposite charge. This means that antimatter would have colors and properties that are the opposite of what we see in our everyday world.
Somebody told your friend that if an antimatter alien ever set foot upon the Earth the whole world would explode into pure radiant energy?
That statement is not scientifically accurate. While antimatter does have the potential to release a large amount of energy upon contact with matter, it would not cause the entire world to explode. Such an event is purely speculative and not based on any scientific evidence.
How can one safely store antimatter?
Antimatter can be safely stored using magnetic fields to contain it and prevent contact with normal matter, which would cause annihilation. Specialized equipment and facilities are required to handle and store antimatter safely.
If 1gram body of antimatter meets a 10gram body of matter which survives?
Initially the 9g of remaining matter would survive. Each particle of antimatter can only annihilate with one other particle of antimatter. At this point the 1g of antimatter would cause an explosion equivalent to that of 200000 pounds of TNT. Causing both groups of matter and antimatter to be obliterated.
Is it true that by touching antimatter man converts into antimatter?
No. If ordinary matter touches antimatter both are annihilated and turned into pure energy. The amount of energy released would be enormous. Using Einstein's E=mc2 we find that contact with even a few grams of antimatter would generate an explosion comparable in magnitude to the detonation of an atomic bomb.
If an astronaut landed on a planet made of antimatter there would be an explosion as both the astronaut and?
The amount of planet matter equal to that of the astronaut would annihilate.

What are the effects of a antimatter plus matter explosion in vacuum?
Exactly the same as outside, but the debris would travel farther because there is no resistance in the vacuum. Outside the vacuum the explosion would happen instantaneously once the anti-particles collided with oxygen.
Was the explosion out of antimatter?
Current physical theory tends to indicate there should be a symmetry expressed in the form of a parity between matter and antimatter created in the Big Bang, with no preference for matter over antimatter; this explosion should have created equal amounts of both, which would then annihilate each other. However, the universe tends to be dominated so far as we can tell by matter and no significant regions of antimatter have yet been detected. This would indicate an asymmetry or bias in favor of matter's creation, which is somewhat mysterious and remains a subject of research. In any case, this bias of matter over antimatter is believed to be extremely small - such that it may have been for every billion particles of antimatter created, there were a billion and one particles of matter.
What is the meaning of fall up alike Does antimatter fall up?
It means that the possibility is considered that Earth's gravity (for example) would push such antimatter up, instead of down; thus, an object made of antimatter, if initially at rest, would move away from Earth, faster and faster. This is a possibility that is being considered; it doesn't seem very likely, though.
What anti-matter will do to us?
When antimatter meets normal matter, it will disintegrate. For example, a proton and an antiproton will mutually destroy, producing high-energy photons - they convert to "pure energy". A few grams of antimatter would cause an explosion comparable to an atomic bomb.
Somebody told your friend that if an antimatter alien ever set foot upon earth the whole world would explode into pure radiant energy your friend looks to you for verification or refutation of this.?
not the entire world but there wold be a massive explosion relasing trillions of joules of energy.
What would happen if an explosion of 100 billion gigatons of TNT occurred on Earth?
An explosion of 100 billion gigatons of TNT on Earth would likely cause catastrophic destruction on a global scale. It would result in massive loss of life, widespread devastation of cities, and severe environmental damage. The impact would likely trigger tsunamis, earthquakes, and a nuclear winter effect due to the resulting debris and dust blocking sunlight.
What do Antimatter bombs do?
Well, although I don't think they have managed to construct one yet, i do know what they are intending to do... this bomb contains a sealed container with no matter inside, just anti matter inside a vacuum, the antimatter hovers above an electronic flow of energy so the antimatter doesn't fall and hit one of the walls of the container. keep in mind the antimatter is a small speck, now, when the bomb is set to go off, this electron flow stops and the antimatter is let to fall to the bottom of the container where in comes in contact with matter, they go through a process called annihilation where the both matters convert into a mass amount of energy, which is the deadly huge radiant explosion that will occur. The effect would be similar to an atomic bomb put the explosion would be much larger for the amount of material and there would be little to no radioactive fallout. Such a device would release more than three times the energy of the Hiroshima atomic bomb for each gram of antimatter present.
What impact would a damaged turbo have on a diesel engine?
explosion and possible risk of death.
