The force of the explosion pushes the air out from around it, creating a pocket of low air pressure. As the smoke and debris cloud begins rising, fresh air flows in from outside the area of explosion, forcing the cloud higher and forming the shape of a mushroom.
This can happen with any sufficiently powerful explosion, but it's most well known and most well associated with nuclear explosions.
Yes, there is nuclear energy in nuclear bombs. It is released in a few microseconds when they are detonated.
Nuclear bombs before the 60s were referred to as atom bombs, because the term Nuclear hadn't been discover yet. Nuclear bombs today, are generally Hydrogen bombs, or fusion bombs. They are significantly more powerful, able to places about the size of Rhode Island. Atom bombs,which were mostly uranium and plutonium, lack the destructive power of Nuclear or Fusion bombs.
Nuclear bombs can use either nuclear fission or nuclear fusion as the primary mechanism of energy release. Most nuclear bombs in current arsenals rely on nuclear fission reactions, while thermonuclear bombs use a fission reaction to trigger a fusion reaction.
Yes, nuclear bombs produce gamma radiation as a result of the nuclear fission or fusion reactions that release high-energy photons. Gamma radiation is a form of electromagnetic radiation that accompanies the explosion of nuclear devices.
Thermonuclear bombs, or hydrogen bombs, are more destructive than nuclear bombs because they involve a two-stage process: a fission reaction triggers a fusion reaction, resulting in a much larger explosion. This fusion reaction releases much more energy and is more efficient at converting material into energy compared to the fission reaction alone. As a result, thermonuclear bombs are typically much more powerful and devastating than traditional nuclear bombs.
The mushroom cloud of the highest yield nuclear explosion (i.e. the 51 megaton Soviet Tsar Bomba in 1961) was about 40 miles tall. Lower yield explosions will have mushroom clouds that are not that tall. The bombs used in World War 2 had mushroom clouds roughly 6 miles tall. Very low yields can have mushroom clouds less than a thousand feet tall.
The cold war was a "Mental War"; if it hadn't been, it would have been a real shooting "hot war." The mental anquish during the cold war consisted of not knowing when the "Mushroom Clouds" would appear. Nuclear bombs exploding in your neighborhood.
Some bombs are nuclear. But most bombs are not nuclear.
Beacause millions of lives were taken by the nuclear bombs
No, China has several hundred nuclear bombs and has had bombs since 1964.
At this time the US builds no nuclear bombs. A small number of existing bombs are refurbished as needed.

Nuclear bombs are illegal since bombs could potentially be harmful to others and places, so no it is not legal.
No, the nuclear bombs which were dropped on Japan, were in Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
No nuclear bombs were tested on Easter Island.
