What is the blast radius of a nuclear weapon?
That depends on what you're referring to: The fireball radius (the nuclear explosion itself), the total anhiliation range radius, and etc. For example, the bomb launched on Hiroshima had a fireball of several hundred feet in radius, a 1km total destruction range radius, and severe damage for miles. For firepower bombs (nuclear bombs made for power show & not effectiveness) The Tsar bomba of USSR had 50~55 megatons of TNT firepower, a fireball with 1km+ radius, total destruction for miles, and created a sound shockwave that could be heard in Norway/Other far Northern European areas. Modern nuclear weapons don't have a single blast radius; the U.S. developed M.I.R.V.s (cluster nuclear bombs) that spread apart to create a shotgun blast of multiple nuclear explosions.
What was the Trinity nuclear blast radius?
The fireball was roughly 1500 feet in diameter (750 feet in radius).Blast damage was found at 10000 yards (30000 feet) to some of the bunkers.The blast was heard hundreds of miles away.
What makes up the largest percentage of the energy released in a nuclear detonation?
Type your answer here... blast effect
What makes up the largest percent of energy released in a nuclear denotation?
blast effect
What is the blast radius for a nuclear bomb?
That is approximately proportional to the cubed root of its yield. This is also true of conventional bombs.
What is the blast radius of a nuclear ballistic missile?
This really depends on a number of factors, such as the yield of the weapon, the detonation altitude, and the terrain.

What does the blast impact of a nuclear weapon do?
Exactly the same thing as a TNT bomb of the same yield.
What is a nuclear weapon's radius?
The radius of the device, or of the effects? Both vary dramatically from weapon to weapon. Physically bombs have been built with external case radii from 3 inches or less to as much as 10 feet. As to effects the blast radius for devices that have been built varies from about 0.1 mile to over 60 miles. Other effects give different radii for the same device. It would be easier to give a useful answer if the question was clearer and more precise.
