It is not possible to give a sensible answer to this question for a number of reasons. There is no standard nuclear bomb: the bomb that was dropped on Hiroshima (Little Boy) had a yield of less than 20,000 tons of TNT. In 1961 the USSR exploded a nuclear bomb (Tsar Bomba) with a yield of 50,000,000 tons of TNT. The damage that a nuclear device can deliver depends on the altitude at which it is detonated. Also, in addition to the immediate effect of the blast, there are long term effects from radioactive debris being blown into the upper atmosphere and coming down later.
As an example of the latter, the explosion at the nuclear reactor at Chernobyl led to radioactive rainfall in the UK. Such effects will depend on prevailing winds and other weather conditions.
What else can I help you with?
How much of an area can a nuclear explosion damage?
The area that a nuclear explosion can damage depends on the size of the bomb and the altitude at which it detonates. A large nuclear bomb detonated at ground level can create a blast radius of several miles, while detonating a smaller bomb at higher altitudes can generate an electromagnetic pulse that can affect a much larger area.
What is the blast radius for a nuclear bomb?
The blast radius of a nuclear bomb can vary depending on factors such as the type and yield of the bomb, as well as the environment in which it detonates. However, the blast radius of a typical nuclear bomb can extend for miles, causing significant destruction and casualties.
How far does a nuclear bomb blow?
well it depends on which kind of nuclear bomb try this http://www.carloslabs.com/projects/200712B/GroundZero.html iyou select a bomb type and then click nuke it and it rough ly shows how much damage the specific bomb would inflict.
How many square miles is the blast radius of an atom bomb?
The blast radius of an atomic bomb can vary depending on the size of the bomb and the height at which it detonates. In general, the blast radius of a nuclear bomb can extend for several miles, causing destruction within a radius of 1-5 miles or more. It can cover an area of several square miles, destroying buildings and causing severe damage within that zone.
What is a Nuclear Bomb Explosion Radius?
The explosion radius of a nuclear bomb can vary depending on its size and design, but a typical range for a strategic nuclear weapon is a blast radius of several miles and a thermal radiation radius of several more miles. The effects of the blast, heat, and radiation can cause widespread destruction and casualties over a large area.

What is the distance of a nuclear bomb?
The blast radius of a nuclear bomb can vary depending on its size and type, but typically ranges from a few kilometers to tens of kilometers. The impact of a nuclear bomb also includes heat, radiation, and fallout, which can affect areas beyond the immediate blast radius.
How much distance does a nuclear bomb cover?
If you are referring to damage effects distances, that depends on:YieldHeight of burstIf subsurface burst, material around burstDesign of bombWeatherSpecific effect: blast, thermal flash, prompt radiation, fallout, EMP, etc.etc. etc.Without knowing all these factors, no estimate can be made.
What is the diameter of a nuclear bomb shockwave?
The diameter of a nuclear bomb shockwave can vary depending on the size and yield of the bomb. In general, the shockwave from a nuclear explosion can have a radius of several miles, causing widespread destruction and devastation.
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.
What damage does a nuclear bomb to a regular bomb?
first off, of course, a nuclear bomb is thousands of times stronger than a normal bomb. a nuclear bomb also carries radiation, energy that causes poisoning and cancer, while most normal bombs cant do that.
What World War 2 inventions did a lot of damage?
nuclear bomb
What would be the blast radius of a 200 megaton nuclear bomb?
Well i did some rough estimates...prob be like 56 milesA blast radius is equal to the square root of the megatonage. A 1 megaton bomb has a blast radius of severe damage of about 4 miles. Therefore a 200 megaton bomb (14 being about the square root) would have about a 56 mile radius. Though direct exposure to the explosion at that distance could probably still cause severe burns and it would probably cause damage as much as 200 miles out.
