How big does a plane have to be to drop a nuclear bomb?
That depends on how big the nuclear bomb is.
How big is a nuclear bomb?
Nuclear weapons currently produced are between the sizes of a microwave oven and a pickup truck. The smallest have an explosive yield in the sub-kiloton range, and the largest are equal to between 5 and 20 megatons of TNT. For a nuclear bomb, most of the size and weight is shielding, to protect the handlers from the radiation from the bomb core.
How big can nuclear radiation get?
As big as the largest star
Who has the biggest nuclear bomb in the world?
As of now, Russia possesses the largest nuclear bomb in the world known as the Tsar Bomba. It was tested in 1961 and had a yield of 50 megatons, making it the most powerful nuclear bomb ever detonated.
How big was the nuclear bomb used in fallout 3?
It wasn't just one bomb.. It was a huge nuclear bombardment during the Great War with China.
What is the largest megaton bomb?
The largest megaton bomb ever detonated was the Soviet Union's Tsar Bomba in 1961, with a yield of about 50 megatons. It was the most powerful nuclear weapon ever created and tested.
How is a nuclear bomb different then a nuclear accident?
An nuclear bomb is purposefully release to pulse out damage. A nuclear accident, on the other hand, is an accident when a nuclear source (usually referring to a nuclear plant) either blows up or leaks.

Can a nuclear bomb or reaction blow up a whole state?

Is the nuke bomb the biggest bomb?
No, a nuclear bomb is not the biggest bomb. The largest conventional bomb in terms of explosive yield is the MOAB (Massive Ordnance Air Blast), also known as the "Mother of All Bombs." It is a non-nuclear bomb developed by the United States.
What is the difference between nuclear bomb and plutonium bomb?
A nuclear bomb is any bomb with any nuclear or atomic material inside it, while a plutonium bomb is a specific type of nuclear bomb. Plutonium could be the nuclear material inside the bomb, and if it is, it's a plutonium bomb.
How big does a nuclear bomb expand?
That depends on the cube root of the yield. The fireball of a 10 megaton bomb reaches about 3 miles diameter.
