This tool converts magnitude—a measure of seismic energy—to the energy of a force (in joules), and then converts that value to the equivalent power of TNT, the Hiroshima atomic bomb, and the Tsar Bomba.
*The energy of the Tsar Bomba is calculated as 2.1×10¹⁷ J, which is the generally accepted value.
*The energy of the Hiroshima-type atomic bomb (Little Boy) is calculated as 6.31×10¹³ J.
*The energy of the Hiroshima-type atomic bomb (Little Boy) is calculated as 6.31×10¹³ J.
