The physical-damage mechanisms of a nuclear weapon (blast and
thermal radiation) are identical to those of conventional explosives, but
the energy produced by a nuclear explosive is millions of times more
powerful per gram and the temperatures reached are briefly in the tens of
millions of degrees.
 HIROSHIMA & NAGASAKI BOMB EFFECT

On August 6 the U.S. dropped a uranium gun-type atomic bomb (Little Boy)
on Hiroshima. American PresidentHarry S. Truman called for Japan's
surrender 16 hours later, warning them to "expect a rain of ruin from the air,
the like of which has never been seen on this earth." Three days later,
on August 9, the U.S. dropped a plutonium implosion-type bomb (Fat Man) on
the city of Nagasaki. Within the first two to four months of the bombings, the
acute effects of the atomic bombings killed 90,000–146,000 people in
Hiroshima and 39,000–80,000 in Nagasaki; roughly half of the deaths in each
city occurred on the first day. During the following months, large numbers
died from the effect of burns, radiation sickness, and other injuries,
compounded by illness and malnutrition. In both cities, most of the dead were
civilians, although Hiroshima had a sizable military garrison.

Info about nuclear bomb
A nuclear weapon is an explosive device that derives its destructive
force from nuclear reactions, either fission (fission bomb) or a
combination of fission and fusion (thermonuclear weapon). Both reactions
release vast quantities of energy from relatively small amounts of matter.
The first fission ("atomic") bomb test released the same amount of energy
as approximately 20,000 tons of TNT (see Trinity (nuclear test)). The first
thermonuclear ("hydrogen") bomb test released the same amount of energy
as approximately 10,000,000 tons of TNT.[1]
 Destruction of living organism during
nuclear blast

Death is highly likely and radiation poisoning is

almost certain if one is caught in the open with
no terrain or building masking effects within a
radius of 0–3 km from a 1 megaton airburst, and
the 50% chance of death from the blast extends
out to ~8 km from the same 1 megaton
atmospheric explosion.
Precautions at the time of nuclear accident:

1. Evacuation of affected place when alarmed.

2. Wearing mask is necessary.
3. Staying home.
4. Not drinking tap water of affected area.
5. Government should supply drinking water by tanks and other suppliers.
Effects of nuclear accident:
1. Direct contact leads to radioactive sickness which may lead to death.
2. Cancer is major problem in affected areas and this effect may stay longer.
3. Air and water will be contaminated due to radioactive steam and groundwater mixing
with radioactive substances.
4. Land degradation.
5. It affects eye sight.
6. The ecological system gets disturbed.
7. Birds and animals have affect on their reproductive systems.
8. Gene disturbances and deformity in newly born.

List of nuclear and radiation fatalities by country

One of the worst nuclear accidents to date was the Chernobyl disaster which occurred in 1986 in Ukraine. The

accident killed 31 people directly and damaged approximately $7 billion of property. A study published in 2005
estimates that there will eventually be up to 4,000 additional cancer deaths related to the accident among those
exposed to significant radiation levels.[17] Radioactive fallout from the accident was concentrated in areas of
Belarus, Ukraine and Russia. Approximately 350,000 people were forcibly resettled away from these areas soon
after the accident.[17]

Benjamin K. Sovacool has reported that worldwide there have been 99 accidents at nuclear power plants from

1952 to 2009 (defined as incidents that either resulted in the loss of human life or more than US$50,000 of
property damage, the amount the US federal government uses to define major energy accidents that must be
reported), totaling US$20.5 billion in property damages. [7] Fifty-seven accidents have occurred since the
Chernobyl disaster, and almost two-thirds (56 out of 99) of all nuclear-related accidents have occurred in the US.
There have been comparatively few fatalities associated with nuclear power plant accidents. [7]

 What albert einstein
had discovered about
atom bomb ?
In 1905 Albert Einstein discovered that a
large amount of energy could be released
from a small amount of matter.
However Bombs were not in his mind
because even he considered himself a
pacifist.
Wouldn’t fight in a war no matter the cause
