What happens to your body during an atomic bomb?
The blast can injure the human body through effects such as rupturing ear drums or lungs, or by throwing people at dangerous speeds. A nuclear blast can also lead to many long term effects on human health, and can cause cataracts, thyroid disease, birth defects and cancer.
Can a person be vaporized?
The human body is a bit more complicated than a glass of water, but it still vaporizes like one. According to the captured study, it takes around three gigajoules of death-ray to entirely vaporize a person—enough to completely melt 5,000 pounds of steel or simulate a lightning bolt.
Is a neutrino bomb possible?
From context, this is a bomb that produces a blast of neutrinos that kill everyone on the planet at nearly the same time as the earth would be transparent to them. This of, course, is nonsense the earth would be nearly transparent but a lethal dose of neutrinos does not seem possible.
What happened to the neutron bomb?
The neutron bomb did not leave property intact; by limiting collateral damage, it just destroyed less of it. The objective was to restore the sagging credibility of “tactical nuclear weapons”—as they were then called—as a deterrent against an attack by Soviet and Warsaw Pact tank armies.
What happens when a neutron bomb is dropped on the ground?
Upon detonation, a near-ground airburst of a 1 kiloton neutron bomb would produce a large blast wave and a powerful pulse of both thermal radiation and ionizing radiation, and non-ionizing radiation in the form of fast (14.1 MeV) neutrons.
Can a neutron bomb really kill you?
In theory a neutron bomb could kill people and leave buildings intact. In reality, though neutron bombs were developed, none of these weapons would kill people and leave buildings intact.
Would a neutron bomb have been used in WW2?
According to proponents, neutron bombs would blunt an invasion by Soviet tanks and armored vehicles without causing as much damage or civilian deaths as the older nuclear weapons would. Neutron bombs would have been used if the REFORGER conventional response of NATO to the invasion was too slow or ineffective.
Is a neutron bomb different from a regular atomic bomb?
Oh, Hell yes. The difference is that although it may be a small atomic bomb (Remember, it is STILL an atomic bomb) it produces far more neutron radiation than the standard model. This means that the radiation effects are far longer ranging than an “ordinary” atomic bomb.
