What happens to gravity during an atomic explosion?

Question

help please like an A bomb or hydrogen bomb???

Answer 1

Gravity is subjected to radiation from the exploding atomic device.

Answer 2

The only gravitational effect would be due to asymmetrical energy displacement in space, as gravity is dependent on energy distribution (equivalent to mass distributions). Just see the wikipedia page on the stress-energy tensor, and look for the Einstein field equation for it's relationship to gravity.

There is one catch though. A nuclear explosion has nowhere near the energy densities that would produce detectable gravity waves, not with our current technology anyway. While we can say that there would eb an effect, due to general relativity, we may be hundreds, maybe thousands of years away from the technology to detect such a small gravity wave. Besides, there are lots of other processes that will produce tons of background noise (something researchers at LIGO have had a problem with), so gravity waves are a horrible way of detecting nuclear explosions.

Answer 3

Nothing at all!

Answer 4

Absolutely nothing! The Atomic Explosion is due to the heat of the reaction, just like a chemical bomb.

Answer 5

An atomic explosion does not affect gravity.

Answer 6

nothing special

Answer 7

energy and matter being interchangeable always....gravity is form of energy or field. Energy from an explosion will have some sort of effect on another energy system. It has to. It would probably be small in the case of nuclear explosion. It may depend on resonance. Vibration as well.

Maybe or maybe not. Does anyone actually have facts and figures to support that it doesn't? That would require a detection unit placed at the center of the explosion...the detector would be destroyed beyond comprehension...so how can anyone know?

Gravity is an inverse square law sort of field, just like magnetism. So anything detected at the epicenter would bleed away rather quickly away from the center region. People wouldn't see anything if the gravity field was affected if the reaction were small. Or it happens so fast, the event just dissipates away at the speed of light?
