If the Tsar Bomba was 100 megatons the Tsar Bomba would have created significantly more destruction and would've also produced a much larger mushroom cloud and the increased yield would've also resulted in a larger blast radius and a more intense fireball as well as a greater amount of radioactive fallout.
The Soviet Union down scaled the bomb to 50 megatons to minimize any fallout and ensure the safety as well as the delivery of aircraft.
The Tsar Bomba being 100 megatons instead of 50 megatons would've emitted a TON more radiation.
Tsar Bomba is also a bomb that is also stronger than the atomic bomb and was the largest nuclear weapon that was ever detonated and released energy equivalent of over 50 megatons of TNT.
The Tsar Bomba is also the most advanced bomb in the world which was the Soviet Union's Tsar Bomba which was tested in the year of 1961 and when tested it yielded around 50 megatons of TNT.
The yield of the Tsar Bomba was very immense and far exceeded any other bomb which includes the largest US nuclear weapons.
The Tsar Bomba was also a physical marvel and required specially modified bombers to deliver it and it's weight as well as size limited it's speed and size.
The Tsar Bomba was also detonated in an isolated area and demonstrated the scale of it's destructive potential and the Tsar Bomba's design, which is a thermonuclear weapon, which was a testament to the Soviet Union's nuclear technology at the time.
Bombs work by using the rapid release of energy from an explosive material to cause destruction.
The rapid energy release from the bombs explosive material is often caused by a chemical reaction which creates a large volume of hot and high pressure gas which results in an explosion.
The type and the scale of the explosion from the bomb will vary significantly depending on the design of the bomb as well as the explosive material that is used.
Most types of bombs use chemical compounds, which when ignited, they undergo a rapid exothermic heat releasing reaction and this reaction is what produces a large volume of hot gases and creates a surge of pressure.
For nuclear bombs, such as atomic bombs, they harness the power of and use nuclear fission or fusion and the fission involves splitting the nucleus of an atom like uranium or plutonium and releases tremendous energy.
The Fusion involves the fusing of atomic nuclei together and also releases vast amounts of energy as seen in hydrogen bombs.
Some types of bombs contain a fuse that initiates the explosive reaction and these fuses can also be triggered by impact such as upon hitting of a target, a time delay after a set period of time or even through proximity when near a target.
For bombs that rely on chemical explosives a primary explosive which is more sensitive is often used to trigger the detonation of a secondary explosive which is less sensitive but also more powerful.
Conventional bombs are the most common type of bomb that uses chemical explosives for detonation and Thermobaric Bombs use a fuel-air mixture that creates a large explosion and potentially causes significant damage in enclosed spaces.
Nuclear bombs are the most powerful bombs that use nuclear fission or fusion to cause devastating explosions.
The first bomb was invented and developed in the 13th century using gun powder in China.
Although the first actual nuclear bombs and nuclear weapons were invented and developed during the World War II as part of the Manhattan Project by the United States, although with significant contributions from scientists such as Edward Teller and J. Robert Oppenheimer.
J. Robert Oppenheimer also led the design and the research of the atomic bomb at the Los Alamos Laboratory.
Edward teller also then later contributed to the development of the hydrogen bomb.
J. Robert Oppenheimer was the director of the Los Alamos Laboratory in which the atomic bombs called "Little Boy", and "Fat Man", were designed.
Edward Teller was a key figure in the development of the hydrogen bomb, which is also known as the thermonuclear weapon.
Stanislaw Ulam collaborated with Edward Teller on the design of the first hydrogen bomb.
The "Little Boy" atomic bomb was dropped on Hiroshima and the atomic bomb "Fat Man", was dropped on Nagasaki.
After the Little Boy atomic bomb designed at Los Alamos was dropped on Hiroshima, J. Robert Oppenheimer also talked to assembled workers and said that he was “proud” and his only regret was not getting the bomb fast enough to use against the Germans.
