That would depend on:
My Nuclear Bomb Effects Computer circular slide rule computes that for a 20 Mton bomb surface burst (the slide rule is not calibrated beyond 20 Mtons and does not include underground bursts) results in a crater 660 feet deep and 2534 feet in diameter. The depth and diameter of the crater will increase with depth of burst, until a depth (depending on yield) at which the rock begins to contain the blast.
Extrapolating and decalibrating the slide rule for a 200 Mton bomb surface burst results in a crater 1,320 feet deep and 5,700 feet in diameter.
Much larger than this yield and most of the blast, even in a surface burst will simply blow away atmosphere above the burst into space.
Yes, a high enough yield device (there is no theoretical limit to the yield of a fusion bomb) at the right depth candestroy a mountain. However I would hate to be anywhere downwind as every speck of the mountain will come falling back as highly radioactive fallout.
The size of the area destroyed by a nuclear bomb depends on its yield. A small nuclear bomb with a yield of 1 kiloton could destroy buildings within a few city blocks, while a larger bomb with a yield of 1 megaton could impact several square miles. The damage would also vary based on the bomb's design, height of detonation, and local geography.
Theoretically, yes. Practically, no, nobody has ever built a single bomb of high enough yield to destroy an entire country in one shot; also any such bomb would waste most of its yield in simply blowing off the top of the atmosphere into space. It just isn't practical with a single bomb.
The amount of heat produced by a nuclear bomb varies depending on the size of the bomb. A typical nuclear bomb can release millions to billions of degrees of heat within milliseconds, resulting in temperatures hotter than the surface of the sun at the point of detonation.
The diameter of destruction caused by a nuclear bomb depends on various factors, including the type and yield of the bomb, the altitude of detonation, and the surrounding terrain. A typical nuclear bomb blast can destroy buildings and infrastructure within a radius of several miles, while the effects of radiation can impact a wider area.
Well if you don't know its a bomb and its actually called nuclear bomb, nuke is short for nuclear. It has the power to destroy a whole NATION. And to answer your other question it looks a missle. if don't know what a missle looks like, you can look up Missles and or nuclear bomb on Google images
no
No.
a volcano, a meteor, a nuclear bomb, or God.
A neclear bomb could completly destroy a building :)
yes he has a nuclear bomb which is the most powerful bomb in the world and can destroy the whole of England. apparently there is only 1 in the world now
There are currently no nuclear weapons big enough that just one could destroy the US. It is possible that enough of them could pretty much destroy our way of life for decades to come.
Nobody has a bomb big enough to destroy the earth. The problem is, if one person detonates a nuke, there will be retaliation by other countries. This will lead to nuclear war, and ultimately the extinction of the human race and most other species of animals.
The size of the area destroyed by a nuclear bomb depends on its yield. A small nuclear bomb with a yield of 1 kiloton could destroy buildings within a few city blocks, while a larger bomb with a yield of 1 megaton could impact several square miles.

If you want to destroy a city and kill thousands of people, it is the quickest way of doing so.
To destroy large areas of land. Is one answer. The other is to blackmail other countries into submitting to you.
That would depend on yield and height/depth of burst.
Theoretically, yes. Practically, no, nobody has ever built a single bomb of high enough yield to destroy an entire country in one shot; also any such bomb would waste most of its yield in simply blowing off the top of the atmosphere into space. It just isn't practical with a single bomb.
