Could you escape a nuclear bomb within 10 minutes?
I just read a question on Reddit about this, it asked what you would do if a nuclear bomb hit the place you were in 10 minutes.
I was wondering if you were to get in your car and drive away quickly, could you survive? Google says:
"The radius for moderate damage would be 1.24 kilometers, the radius for third-degree burns would be 1.91 kilometers. Glass would shatter at a distance of more than 6 kilometers."
And then I thought to myself, it would surely be possible to escape from the situation relatively unscathed if you drive, say, at an average speed of 100 km/h for 8 minutes (because it's in town + you have to get the keys and get into the car etc.).
Or how do you see it, could one survive something like that?

I think the red lights would you ignore 😉
Just like everyone else. The red lights are then replaced within minutes by piles of sheet metal…
I find this annoying when the bomb detonates while I’m in a dam. That I was the only one to come up with this idea is unlikely.
Yeah, you calculated it yourself. 60 km/h cut is 10 km, that goes inside.
120 km/h of cut, if you can use passageways are 20 km.
But when many know this is jam and nix goes, it depends on the circumstances, but it is.
Best drive 9 min and look for 1min cover.
Then you are protected from the greatest available weapons from the death zone, and by a beautiful concrete wall also from still brutal radiation (light, heat, no more gamma that is already gone) and tramper flight through the pressure wave. So 1, or 2 MT would you survive thanks to car – escape
Supplement, the giant bombs that were once tested you could not escape.
Castle Bravo, 15 MT.
The rough blast radius is already critical if concrete walls fly around your ears. And also win the heat of the fireball, 10, 15 km distance, but then find a underground garage or a tunnel.
The Tsar Bomba with 50 MT and possible up to 100…
To leave the zone of absolute destruction you need 10 km. And there’s no normal building behind it. Without underground garage or tunnel, the baggage-filled bladder or carburizes the radiation…
It has to be optimal that you survive, and then certainly not without consequences. You’re not far enough off the Gamma Blitz.
Fortunately, there’s no such thing in any arsenal.
The further you are gone, the better but the roads must be free. It could save your life. The calculation depends heavily on the explosive power of the bomb.
Of course. The absolutely deadly radius of a nuclear explosion is only a few kilometers.
with a battle jet maybe
You won’t even be able to pick up the car key again, you’ll be atomized on site.
If the bomb doesn’t have so much energy, you’ll lose the radiation damage within a few months.
Everyone should know in such a case how to suicide cleanly.
