If the question is how long will a nuclear weapon take to destroy everything on the surface of the earth within 10 square miles of the detonation, the answer is dependent on three things.
First you must know the size of the weapon, second you must know whether the detonation will be a subsurface burst, and surface burst, or an air burst. Finally you must know whether there are any terrain features such as hills or ridges that will deflect the blast. If all the conditions are all optimum total destruction will take place in a matter of 2-3 seconds. Gamma radiation moves at the speed of light, the fireball is almost instantaneous, and last but not least the blast front must travel out from the point of detonation AND RETURN which is just a little slower. Any one of the three effects are capable of killing living things. The fireball and blast effect are the most destructive of inanimate objects. They all are reduced in direct proportion to the square of the distance from the point of explosion.
I would say if you have to die, and you don't know it's coming, that would be as good a way as any. You would never know what hit you.
The extent of destruction caused by a nuclear bomb can vary depending on various factors such as the yield of the bomb, type of detonation (airburst or groundburst), and local geography. A high-yield nuclear bomb detonated at ground level can cause significant damage and wipe out a large area, including 10 miles of land, almost instantly. The area would become uninhabitable due to the immediate effects of the blast, heat, and radiation.
The land area affected by a nuclear explosion depends on the size of the bomb and the height at which it detonates. For example, a one-megaton nuclear bomb could destroy buildings and cause fires over an area of several square miles, while a larger bomb could cause widespread destruction over tens of square miles. The immediate blast zone, radiation fallout, and thermal effects would all contribute to the overall impact on land.
The amount of land destroyed by a nuclear bomb depends on the bomb's yield and how it's designed. The blast radius of a nuclear bomb can range from a few hundred meters to several kilometers, and the effects of radiation and fallout can extend much farther. The destruction can vary greatly based on factors like the bomb's design, size, and placement.
The affected radius of land from nuclear fallout after the Hiroshima bombing was roughly 10 km (6.2 miles) from ground zero. This area suffered substantial damage and contamination from the blast and radiation.
The destructive radius of an atomic bomb can vary, depending on the bomb's yield and design, as well as factors such as terrain and weather conditions. Generally, the immediate blast radius can be several square miles, but the effects of radiation and fallout can impact a much larger area, potentially causing widespread destruction and contamination.
A nuclear bomb is an intentional explosive device that unleashes nuclear energy rapidly, while a nuclear meltdown is an uncontrolled release of nuclear energy due to a reactor overheating, potentially leading to a catastrophic failure of the reactor core. Both can result in widespread damage and health risks, but the causes and intentions behind them are vastly different.

Over 12 miles.
The destructive radius of a nuclear bomb depends on its size and location, but a large nuclear bomb like the ones deployed during World War II could destroy a radius of several miles and cause devastating damage to structures and infrastructure. The long-term impacts from radiation and fallout could extend even further.
To destroy large areas of land. Is one answer. The other is to blackmail other countries into submitting to you.
the Israeli army is the powerful army in the middle east! if we will get into a conflict we will probably win... if Iran wants to land a nuclear bomb we can destroy it and sent them HYDROGEN bomb, the power of this bomb is 100 times stronger then nuclear, if a nuclear bomb destroys thousand's of people the a hydrogen bomb destroys about a million and so people. anyway the Israeli army is very powerful and its 1 of the top 5 armies in the world.
Although the Hiroshima bomb had lower yield than the Nagasaki bomb, it did more damage because it:exploded closer to its intended APHiroshima is on flatter land than Nagasaki allowing the blast wave to cover more land, the hills surrounding Nagasaki contained the blast wave limiting the range of damage.
The nuclear bombs dropped on Hiroshima and on Nagasaki at the end of World War II caused a radius of total destruction of about one mile (1.6 km), with resulting fires across 4.4 square miles (11.4 km²).
The affected radius of land from nuclear fallout after the Hiroshima bombing was roughly 10 km (6.2 miles) from ground zero. This area suffered substantial damage and contamination from the blast and radiation.

The badlands is a place where the fringes people, when sterilised are sent to, to live apart from the people of Waknuk. In the time of the Old People, a nuclear bomb was dropped on what is now known as the Badlands, causing the land to become infertile. Nothing that is the norm of Waknuk can grow in the Badlands because this bomb was dropped.
