Nuclear weapons are much much hotter, their temperature is in the millions of Kelvins while chemical incendiaries like napalm are only in the thousands of Kelvins. Nuclear explosives are so hot the heat radiation can ignite structures miles away from the actual blast before the blast wave gets there, no chemical explosive can do this.
What else can I help you with?
Which is more powerful napalm bomb or nuclear bomb?
Nuclear. Napalm is simply gelled gasoline fire bomb.
What is the difference between an atom bomb and an atomic bomb?
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.
Why is petrol a better fuel then wax?
the fuel produces has higher ignition temperature and produces more heat
Which one does more damage the atomic bomb or the thermonuclear bomb?
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.
Which produces more heat a gram of candle wax or gram of alcohol?
A gram of candle wax produces more heat when burned compared to a gram of alcohol. Candle wax has a higher energy content per gram than alcohol, which results in more heat being released during combustion.
What planet produces more heat than light from the sun?
Planets typically do not produce more heat than stars. Mercury gets really hot BECAUSE of the sun.
What are the differences between simple calorimeter and bomb calorimeter?
A simple calorimeter measures heat changes in a substance through temperature changes in water surrounding it, while a bomb calorimeter measures the heat of combustion of a substance by igniting it in a sealed chamber under high pressure. Bomb calorimeters are more precise and accurate than simple calorimeters, but they are also more complex and expensive to operate.
What kind of sunlight produces more heat than another type of sunlight?
Direct sunlight produces more heat than indirect sunlight. Direct sunlight is more intense and focused, resulting in higher temperatures compared to diffuse or scattered sunlight.
What produce the sun?
the sun produces light ,heat ,energy,and so much more
A thicker resistance wire produces more heat?
I'm not sure what you mean by "thicker resistance" wire? The thicker or more diameter of a wire the less resistance it has. A larger diameter wire would produce less heat. More resistance would produce more heat.
How come when you touch a light it burns you?
Any device that produces light also produces heat. Some more than others. An incandescent lamp is actually more efficient at producing heat than producing light. There are available different types of lamp which produce less heat such as LCD lamps.
What were the effects of napalm on human beings?
Not sure what you mean by side effects. Napalm is/was a jellied fuel. It is spread across the target area. and ignited. It burns with great heat for a few minutes. Being close to or inside the flame area can be fatal- not just from the heat, but the oxygen being burned out of the air.
