If you have a basement, that would be the best place to go. It is surrounded by earth and concrete, some of the best protectors of radiation. Go to the most protected corner of the basement and cover your head with something. Your house will be gone and possibly fall on you. If you have a metal file cabinet that you could remove the drawers and fit in, that would be good to move into the corner and fit in. This is all assuming you had at least a few minutes heads up it was coming. If you have enough time, grab as many water bottles as you can. You can go without food for 2-3 weeks, but only 2-3 days without water.

Can a nuclear reactor explode as a nuclear bomb?

Highly unlikely if not altogether impossible. In a core meltdown, you might see a steam explosion if the core melts and breaches the containment structure and hits say cooling water. But even a runaway chain reaction in a reactor would not cause a nuclear explosion like a bomb.


Which is more destructive a nuclear bomb or a hydrogen bomb?

A hydrogen bomb (thermonuclear bomb) is more destructive than a regular nuclear bomb (fission bomb). Hydrogen bombs release much larger amounts of energy and have the potential to create significantly more devastation and damage.


Would one nuclear bomb destroy a city like New York?

One nuclear bomb has the capability to cause significant destruction to a city like New York, depending on the size and location of the blast. The extent of damage would also be influenced by factors such as the type of bomb, altitude of detonation, and prevailing weather conditions. The impact would likely be catastrophic, resulting in widespread devastation and loss of life.


What is the difference between an atomic bomb and a nuclear weapon?

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).


Is a bomb a nuclear reaction?

No, a bomb is not necessarily a nuclear reaction. A bomb can be any device that is designed to explode and cause destruction, whereas a nuclear reaction involves the splitting or combining of atomic nuclei to release energy. Nuclear bombs, also known as atomic bombs, utilize nuclear reactions to produce a very powerful explosion.
