The U.S. army dropped the atomic bomb in 1945. Give reasons? |
|
Answer» st 6, 1945, during World War II (1939-45), an American B-29 bomber dropped the world’s FIRST deployed atomic bomb over the Japanese city of Hiroshima. The explosion wiped out 90 percent of the city and immediately killed 80,000 people; tens of thousands more would later die of RADIATION EXPOSURE. Three days later, a second B-29 dropped ANOTHER A-bomb on Nagasaki, killing an estimated 40,000 people. Japan’s Emperor Hirohito announced his country’s unconditional surrender in World War II in a radio address on August 15, citing the devastating power of “a new and most cruel bomb.”Thanks |
