The biggest bomb was the Tsar bomba, it used around 50MT (megatons) of TNT which is the same as all bombs dropped in WW2 times 10x, it was capable of destroying 30-40 miles of territory without any large deposits of radiation.
yes and no depending on how much nuclear bombs it can start a ice age like the asteroid that hit earth so its not enough to destroy the earth
under ground test did not cause as much nuclear fallout or something like that
It is unusable for several decades, much like what happens to an area after an atom bomb is used, just not as severe.
Global warming is causing climate change. This will lead to sea levels rising as oceans expand and glaciers and ice caps melt. Salt water will destroy much farming low-lying land making it unsuitable for growing crops.
Tornadoes can destroy as much houses as it can depending on the length of their path. Most tornadoes are too weak to destroy houses, causing mostly superficial damage. However, in the works cases a tornado can destroy thousands of houses.
Over 12 miles.
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.
it is impossible to tell because the force would destroy anyything, including a thermometer!
depends on too many variables to say. the main variable is the yields of the bombs used.
this depends mostly on yield and altitude/depth of burst. it is a rather difficult function to compute.
That depends on too many variables to give a simple answer:YieldBurst height/depthTerrainConstruction of buildingsWeatherIf burst is subsurface, material around burst (dirt, rock, concrete, water, etc.)etc.Every type of nuclear bomb is different, as well as the circumstances of its use.
alot
There isn't much difference in these terms. Both refer to nuclear weapons, and they are general terms that can pretty much be used interchangeably.
That depends on the yield.
We have the ability to destroy the world with one nuclear weapon. An entire nuclear war could destroy the entire solar system if we had the opportunity to.
