ones normal the others atomic
Answer:Ordinary bombs are made of chemical explosives. An explosive is anything that, once ignited, burns extremely fast producing a large amount of hot gas in the process. The hot gas expands very quickly causing a sudden increase in pressure called an explosion. To explode rather than just burn they sometimes need to be in a container so the pressure can become high before exploding. Explosives that you commonly hear about are nitroglycerin, dynamite and TNT, but anything from gasoline to ammonium nitrate fertilizer to special plastic explosives are in the class of normal or chemical explosives.Atomic bombs don't burn anything. There are forces inside an atom. Atomic bombs work by releasing these forces. It's called spitting the atom.
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.
The main difference between atomic bombs and hydrogen bombs is the source of their energy. Atomic bombs rely on nuclear fission (splitting atoms), while hydrogen bombs use a two-stage process involving both fission and fusion (combining atoms). Hydrogen bombs are more powerful and destructive than atomic bombs.
One takes large atoms and breaks them into smaller atoms--called fission (a-bomb). The other takes really small atoms and fuses them together to make larger atoms--called fusion (h-bomb).
They are both general terms. The term "atomic bomb" can mean any nuclear weapon, either a fission weapon or a fusion weapon (the so-called hydrogen bomb). The term thermonuclear bomb is also used in general, but it usually excludes the fusion bombs. It should be noted, however, that it takes a fission bomb to generate the heat necessary to "set off" a fusion reaction and make a fusion bomb work.
fission vs fusion
da difference between a bagel and an atomic bomb is dat a bagel is something dat u eat and an atomic bomb is something dat is used n war and to blow up something like Hiroshima

Nuclear reactions in a nuclear reactor are controlled reactions. The reactions in the atomic bomb are not controlled reactions
The atomic bomb killed millions of people in just one bomb , the napalm on the other hand , was nothing like it . Napalm is a chemical device ... it produces fire (it's also called jellied gasoline). An atomic bomb is a nuclear device ... and puts out considerably more energy.
There isn't much difference in these terms. Both refer to nuclear weapons, and they are general terms that can pretty much be used interchangeably.
still, an normal atomic bomb is more powerful. a thermonuclear bomb can easily take out a base since the thermal energy it produces will easily deep-roast everything it touches, but it doesnt turn an entire city into ash in seconds, as do with a normal atomic bomb.
Back to normal.
No they are the same thing.
In general, a fusion bomb (hydrogen bomb) is more powerful than a fission (atomic) bomb. Fusion bombs use an atomic bomb to begin the fusion reaction.
An atomic bomb is a complete deliverable bomb, including all nonnuclear components. The nuclear core is a rather small part, typically between 2 to 3 inches in diameter that contains the fissile fuel that when made supercritical by conventional explosives in the bomb fissions and provides the energy to drive the actual nuclear explosion.
