An atomic bomb can release heat equivalent to temperatures reaching millions of degrees Celsius within the detonation zone. The massive amount of energy released during a nuclear explosion can result in extreme temperatures capable of vaporizing almost anything within the blast radius.
Nuclear weapons utilize the energy released from nuclear fission reactions to create explosive power. The process involves splitting atomic nuclei, resulting in a chain reaction that leads to a massive release of energy in a very short amount of time. This energy release is what causes the destructive force associated with nuclear weapons.
Sound energy can be sensed by the ears in science. Sound energy travels in the form of waves and causes the eardrums to vibrate, which our brains interpret as sound.
The immediate destructive action of a nuclear explosion is caused by the release of an immense amount of energy in the form of heat, blast pressure, and radiation. This energy can cause widespread damage to buildings, infrastructure, and living organisms within the blast radius.
In a nuclear bomb, the transformation of nuclear potential energy (from the nuclei of atoms) into thermal energy and kinetic energy occurs during the process of nuclear fission. This causes a rapid release of energy in the form of a powerful explosion.

Shockwaves and thermal radiation are mainly emiited in a nuclear detonation. When the nuclear blasts hits the ground, kinetic energy from the impact will be released, similar to an earthquake, causing shockwaves. Thermal radiation, or electromagnetic radiation, a result of energy released from the nuclear reaction of two nitrogen atoms forming a carbon and an oxygen atom, causes fires, thermal burns and blindness.

A nuclear fall out shelter is anywhere you can hide from the effects of a nuclear detonation. When a nuclear device is detonated above the ground it causes debris to be tossed into the troposphere and sometime stratosphere. This then falls back to earth as radioactive particles. A fall out shelter usually has three feet of soil above it to absorb the gamma radiation that is emitted from these particles. In most cases the radioactive particles dissipate quickly and people have to only be in a fallout shelter for a few weeks. Underground shelters also act against blast and thermal radiation (heat radiation) from a nuclear detonation. http://www.waverage.com has more about this.
