Eating only potatoes causes many problems in short period of time.
Your body needs other things to survive than energy as well.

Not really no, the potato is not particularly nutritious. Lack of nutrition results in things like intellectual disabilities and physical frailty, neither of which is conducive to survival in a post apocalyptic scenario.

The main problem you have failed to address though is the contaminated air supply which would result from a nuclear war.

You can survive with only potato. But not for very long/healthy.

You will soon start to develop symptoms of various deficiencies, as potato is mostly just carbohydrates and water.
Theres no fat and very low protein, which is a problem. Some vitamins and minerals you can not get (enough) from potato either.
You will die a painful death within few months at most. But you will get first minor symptoms in less than a week.
Most likely you will only not develop physical issues but mental as well, because many nutrients have great role on how your brains work.

Your brains are mostly fat. So they need more of it to stay alive and functional. Potato has no fat at all really. You will be really screwed.
Must also be remembered that not all fat or protein or carbohydrates are equal. It greatly varies.
If some food has x amount of proteins, does not mean that you get all your proteins from that food. You need like dozen of different amino-acids to make things you need.

well im not expert but i managed to learn this way to make activated charcoal

gat car battery and empty acid in glass heatable container boil off as much water as can from it (carefully) sulfric acid

then put a ton of salt in it and let the reactions happen hydrocloric acid

then conbime limestone and the hydrocloric acid heat till water boils off (hydrocloric acid has affinity to pull water from air) calcuim cloride

Make charcoal. You get your carbon from charcoal, and the main problem with activating it at home is the temperature at which you make the charcoal from wood. It needs to be cooked between 900 and 1400 degrees Farenheit, and it’s difficult to reach and control those temperatures in the back yard. When we made charcoal (read this article), it was questionable whether we reached those temperatures, but if you can do it, by all means go for it.
Powder the charcoal. I know that pea-sized chunks are easier to handle, but because this backyard activation process is not 100% effective, you need the smallest pieces charcoal you can get, so go ahead and powder it.
Make a 25% solution (by weight) of calcium chloride. Calcium chloride is widely available and generally considered non-toxic, so it’s safe to handle. To make a 25% solution, weigh 3 parts of water and mix in 1 part calcium chloride. For example, dissolve 100 grams of calcium chloride in 300 grams (same as 300 mL) of water.
Make a paste with the calcium chloride solution and your powdered charcoal. Watch the video to get an idea of how much solution to use, and how thick the paste should be.
Spread the paste to dry.
Rinse with clean water.
Bake at 225 degrees F for 30 minutes.

but idk if activate charcoal filiter whould work lol

In a way that is what has happened throughout history and still today.
