How many tons of TNT would it take to produce a 2 megaton explosion?
2,000,000. By definition.
What is a nuclear explosion which releases energy equivalent to 7000000 tons of TNT called?
A nuclear explosion that releases energy equivalent to 7,000,000 tons of TNT is known as a "megaton" explosion. This term refers to the explosive power of the nuclear blast in relation to the traditional unit of measure for explosive force, which is tons of TNT.
How big was the nuclear explosion?
The size of a nuclear explosion can vary depending on the yield of the weapon. The explosions can range from several kilotons (thousands of tons of TNT) to megatons (millions of tons of TNT) of explosive power.
What is A nuclear explosion which releases energy equivalent to seven million tons of TNT called?
A nuclear explosion releasing energy equivalent to seven million tons of TNT is called a megaton explosion.
How much weight does a kiloton of TNT equal?
A Kiloton of TNT is not really a measure of weight but of explosive force. A kiloton of TNT would would weigh 1000 metric tons or about 2.2 Million pounds. But a kiloton of water, feathers, bricks.. would also weigh 2.2 Million pounds. A kiloton of TNT has the energy of 4.2 × 1012 joules or 4 Billion BTU's which would be enough energy to raise the temperature of 2 Million tons of Water 1 degree F.
How many tnt to destroy the earth?
It may take a thousand of tons on TNT to pack a nuclear bomb. But to destroy the earth, it may take billions to trillions tons of TNT plus a nuclear igniter to blow the earth to bits of dust.
How many tons of tnt equals the power of a atom bomb?
that varies with yield, which is specified in tons of TNT and would thus be your answer. atomic bombs have been built and tested with yields from 10 tons of TNT to over 50 million tons of TNT.
How many tons of TNT would it take to produce a 2 megaton explosion?
2,000,000. By definition.
Can 600 megatons of TNT destroy the world?
Nope.
What is a nuclear explosion which releases energy equivalent to 7000000 tons of TNT called?
A nuclear explosion that releases energy equivalent to 7,000,000 tons of TNT is known as a "megaton" explosion. This term refers to the explosive power of the nuclear blast in relation to the traditional unit of measure for explosive force, which is tons of TNT.
How much TNT will you need to destroy the moon?
Well to destroy the Earth and it's gravitational binds would take 7 Exatons of TNT, the Moon is roughly 25% of Earth's size. It's also not so simple, you have to take the planets and Moon mass into acount.
What was in the boat of the Halifax explosion?
there was 2000 tons of TNT, 10 tons of gun cotton, 35 tons of benzoyl and lots of artillery shells.
What is 1 atom bomb equal to?
its equal to 20000 tons of tnt
How big was the nuclear explosion?
The size of a nuclear explosion can vary depending on the yield of the weapon. The explosions can range from several kilotons (thousands of tons of TNT) to megatons (millions of tons of TNT) of explosive power.
What is 10 megatons?
mega = million. so megaton = million tons. Often used as a comparative power, where the tons referred to are tons of TNT. So, the Hiroshima bomb was about 20kt. = 20 000 tons of TNT. Naturally, this unit ignores effects beyond simple blast, effects such as heat and radiation.
Why did scientists detonate 100 tons of TNT before they tested their bombs?
Yes
Which is more damaging Atom bomb or megaton bomb?
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.
