There hasn't been a test on that yet, it would also depend on how big the warheads carried were.
not worth thinking about , a nuclear war would in itself be a chain reaction causing humanitys elimination . the earth cannot be destroyed but we can .
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.
It is estimated that Russia has enough nuclear weapons to destroy the Earth multiple times over. A nuclear war involving Russia's full arsenal could lead to catastrophic global consequences, including nuclear winter and widespread destruction.
The US nuclear weapons arsenal is powerful enough to destroy the Earth multiple times over. The exact number of times would depend on the specific yield of each warhead and the total number of warheads available.
It is impossible to accurately estimate the number of nuclear bombs it would take to completely destroy Earth as the amount would be so vast that it is beyond comprehension. Using nuclear bombs to destroy Earth would also have catastrophic consequences for all life on the planet.
One
It is difficult to provide an exact number as the use of nuclear weapons would have catastrophic global consequences, potentially leading to nuclear winter and widespread devastation. It is imperative to prevent the use of such weapons to protect life on Earth.
It depends on the size of the Nuclear device, anywhere from 5 square miles and up
Surprisingly few ! The 'super powers' have enough nuclear weapons between them - to destroy humanity many times over !
The tsunami destroyed many buildings and damaged nuclear reactors
It is difficult to determine an exact number of nuclear warheads needed to end all life on Earth as it would depend on various factors such as targeting and the size of the warheads. However, it is believed that even a small fraction of the world's nuclear arsenal could potentially cause catastrophic global consequences.
Trillions of them, at least. Luckily for us, distances in space are huge, and the things that can destroy Earth are far away.
