it all depends on how close you are to the bomb? At Hiroshima, they found some "shadows of death" that were shadows of people burned into the walls. The people may not have been vaporized but they were probably killed almost instantly. Others a little further away received high doses of radiation, which burns their skin. Further away, they began to have symptoms of "radiation sickness", which leads to death in a few weeks.

How much power do an average nuclear weapon have?

How long did it take the atomic bomb to hit the ground?
If you are asking specifically about the two bombs dropped on Japan in WW2, they were fuzed for airburst, so they did not hit the ground. Both exploded between 1500 ft & 2000 ft altitude. Airburst was selected to maximize blast & thermal flash damage effects area.
How powerful is a nuclear bomb?
A nuclear bomb is extremely powerful, and that's why there are many countries seeking to obtain this power. Since the US is such a "responsible" country, the president is only aloud to look at the directions of how to control our countries nuclear power when in an emergency. The power of a nuclear bomb is typically measured in kilotons or megatons. 1 megaton is the equivalent of 1 million tons of TNT (similar to dynamite) blowing up. The largest nuclear bombs were around 50 megatons, or 50 million tons (or 50 billion kilograms) of TNT. The smallest nuclear bombs were around 10 tons (yes, that is only 0.01 kiloton). Note that at this time (2013) no country stockpiles bombs either that large or that small (about 50 kilotons to 300 kilotons is currently typical). Also, a nuclear bomb is powerful enough to take out an entire city, while spreading deadly radioactive fallout throughout the area. There is still some leftover radiation in places like Hiroshima and the various above ground test sites.
What would happen if a nuclear bomb hit?
If a nuclear bomb hit, it would cause catastrophic damage and death to the surrounding area. The bomb sends out a fire ball that destroys buildings and everything in its pathway. It also sends out radiation in the form of gamma rays that is harmful to everything around it. It is unsure the exact damage, because each individual could be exposed to different amounts.

Does toxic waste eventually disintegrate?
Yes, in a way it does, but it does not rot away for hundreds of years, and when it does, it leaves a residue that can be damaging... just take a look at Hiroshima after the nuclear bomb was dropped on it. The residue of the bomb was left in the soil and people living there breath it in every day, resulting in many birth deformities and such. Hope this helped :)
