An atomic bomb works by having a number of neutrons released from the nucleus, and these in turn will dislodge more neutrons from other atoms and so on. Provided the number of neutrons released continues to grow, a nuclear explosion will result.

A significant problem is in having enough neutrons released to start the chain reaction going. This will not usually take place with ordinary materials, and the starting material has to be made to release more neutrons than it would do naturally. This is done by compressing the start material, but as you know, trying to compress a solid is difficult. A spherical cage of conventional explosive (shaped charge) is the most common method.

Returning to the question, there is no single "equation". If you look up the work of folk like Richard Feynman, and J R Oppenheimer, you'll be better informed.

The nuclear bomb equation refers to the famous equation E=mc^2, proposed by Albert Einstein. This equation shows the relationship between energy (E), mass (m), and the speed of light (c). It explains the immense amount of energy released in a nuclear explosion by converting a small amount of matter into energy.

What is the difference between nuclear bomb and plutonium bomb?

A nuclear bomb is a type of bomb that releases energy from splitting atoms (fission), whereas a plutonium bomb specifically uses plutonium as the primary fissile material to create the explosive chain reaction. Plutonium bombs are a subset of nuclear bombs.
