Mushroom cloud from the atomic bombing of Nagasaki, Japan, on 9 August 1945. A mushroom cloud is a distinctive mushroom-shaped flammagenitus cloud of debris, smoke, and usually condensed water vapour resulting from a large explosion.

2021年7月25日 · Nuclear bombs dropped during wartime and scientific experiments show that mushroom clouds can form on Earth, but what about in space? If the moon were nuked, would a mushroom cloud occur?

2021年7月26日 · July 1946: A mushroom cloud forms after the initial Atomic Bomb test explosion off the coast of Bikini Atoll, Marshall Islands. Keystone/Getty Images. In a nutshell, it's because the bomb...

2019年12月12日 · A test with explosive power measured in megatons (the equivalent of millions of tons of TNT) produced a cloud that rose rapidly (about 300 miles an hour) to great heights, pushing warm water vapor ahead of it.

1999年10月21日 · "A mushroom cloud forms when an explosion creates a very hot bubble of gas. In the case of a nuclear detonation, the bomb emits a blast of x-rays, which ionize and heat the surrounding...

Massive mushroom clouds are a staple of nuclear explosions, but the underlying physics actually applies to all fluids. The idea of what a nuclear explosion looks like is likely cemented in your...

The Mushroom Cloud. As the fireball increases in size and cools, the vapors condense to form a cloud containing solid particles of the weapon debris, as well as many small drops of water derived from the air sucked into the rising fireball.

A mushroom cloud is the iconic and terrifying result of a thermonuclear explosion, but actually a mushroom cloud can be created by any massive release of heat, such as from a volcano or from something like the 2020 Beirut explosion.

Video of the formation of a mushroom cloud from a nuclear explosion. The mushroom cloud consists chiefly of very small particles of radioactive fission products and weapon residues, water droplets, and larger particles of dirt and debris carried up by the afterwinds.

2023年10月19日 · A nuclear/atomic explosion creates a mushroom cloud because the detonating bomb suddenly releases a great deal of heat rapidly, which interacts with the cooler surrounding air and makes it less dense.
