Best Answer

mega = million. so megaton = million tons.

Often used as a comparative power, where the tons referred to are tons of TNT.

So, the Hiroshima bomb was about 20kt. = 20 000 tons of TNT.

Naturally, this unit ignores effects beyond simple blast, effects such as heat and radiation.

How many zeros are there in megatons?

In the metric system, the prefix "mega-" denotes a factor of 1,000,000. Therefore, a megaton is equivalent to one million tons. Since a ton is equal to 2,000 pounds, a megaton is equal to 2 billion pounds. The number of zeros in a megaton is determined by the number of zeros in the numerical value of 2 billion, which is nine zeros.
