I know a country which has so much of nuclear power that...?

Question

it can finish the world 400 times with that nuclear power...

i read that in a magazine.and below that sentence someone wrote that if that country have so much of nuclear power and if it destroys the world once then their remaining power will be wasted.....

so what is the use of making so much of nuclear..and this country is continuously generating the power,i mean what they want.??

Answer 1

This is weird I read a book which talked about a national lab runing a simulation to see what would of happen if all the nuclear payloads at the height of the Cold War were set off all at once.

They were not enough to destroy world ONCE.  However, the resulting nuclear winter would be pretty bad.

Answer 2

Seems as if, even though they cost so much they must have a spectacular failure rate.   Half will fail to launch and just sit in the bunkers, more will be duds, some will get destroyed by the enemy before they can destroy the enemy, got to make sure even those commy (I'm assuming you're talking about the US since the soviet union has broken into more than one country now) cockroaches don't survive.

Answer 3

Um, I can't find a coherent question in there.  Nuclear power cannot destroy the world, they are just power plants.  There are not even enough nuclear weapons left over from the cold war to destroy the world 400 times over.  You should probably get a better magazine.

Answer 4

See what you need to do is, put down that magazine, and start reading books.  This will help with your literacy skills.  Also, it would be beneficial to pay attention in school.  Then you can come back to Yahoo Answers and ask a question that makes sense.

Answer 5

You are mixing up the concept of Nuclear Bombs with Nuclear Power -- they are two different subjects.  Admittedly, there may be now (or may have been at one time) enough nuclear bombs in existence to destroy the world 400 times over -- and yes it is a good question as to why anyone would need to destroy the world more than once.

However, there is definitely NOT any country that has 400 times the nuclear power we could use.  If that were true we would not have any energy crisis and we would have no need for coal fired power plants, oil etc (that would also solve global warming).   If my memory serves me correct France produces 80% of their electricity from nuclear power and that is one of the highest % of any country and they still use oil to power automobiles.
