Let's remove the term "ton" from the words. Then we're left with Mega and Kilo. Mega is a shortened term for 1,000,000 and Kilo is a shortened term for 1,000.
Therefore 1 Mega ÷ 1 Kilo = 1,000 Kilotons in 1 megaton.
A kiloton could be described as 1 x 103 tons.
1 kiloton = 1000 tons.
.... nanogram = 0,00001 g microgram = 0,0001 g miligram = 0,001 g centigram = 0,01 g decigram = 0,1 g gram = 1 g decagram = 10 g hectogram = 100 g kilogram = 1000 g ton = 1000 kg kiloton = 1000 t megaton = 1000 kt ..... ~codekiddy.

The difference in place is 1/20.
1 kiloton is a unit of explosive energy equivalent to 1,000 metric tons of TNT. It measures the power of an explosion. Mile, on the other hand, is a unit of distance that measures how far something is. These two units measure completely different quantities - one measures energy and the other measures distance.
There are 1,000 metric tons in a kiloton.
1 kiloton!
At this time it is somewhere under 1 megaton. Current Minutemen III missiles carry one single fusion warhead about 300 to 350 kiloton. They have capacity for 3, but treaty limits them to 1.
There are 1,000 kilograms in a kiloton. A kiloton is equivalent to 1,000 metric tons.
Comparatively not that powerful. The largest Pakistan has that we suspect could be most likely no higher then a 500 kiloton nuclear warhead while the United States and Russia for example operate or have operated 30, 40, even 50 megaton nuclear devices. A 500 kiloton nuke is about 1% the power of a 50 megaton nuke. However, they operate about 70-90 nuclear warheads, making not only the weapon, but the number of them a significant nuclear deterrent for the country.
A kiloton could be described as 1 x 103 tons.
1 megaton TNT = 4.184 petajoules ( 4.184 x 1015 J )
A cargo ship
A 1 kiloton nuclear blast has the equivalent explosive force of detonating 1 kilotons of TNT.
2,000,000 pounds A kiloton is 2000000 pounds I think kilo means 1000 and there are 2000 pounds in a ton so just do the math 1000x2000 and you should have your pounds. CORRECTION!!!!!!!!!!!!! there are exactly 41,887,829.815127 pounds in 1 kiloton. That's roughly 42 million. NO! NO NO Well to be honest 1 metric ton is 1000 kilos witch is 2204lbs 1 kiloton is 1000 metric tons so 1 kiloton is 2.204 million lbs so 10 kilotons is 22.04 million lbs give or take a buick
1 kiloton = 1000 tons.
