    DBQ Atomic Bomb

    In August of 1945, the United States launched two atomic bombs on Japan; the first, in Hiroshima on August 6, and the second in Nagasaki a few days later. Despite the obvious diplomatic advantage to implementing one of the most intimidating weapons of that time, the United States’ tactics and goals behind dropping the atomic bombs were purely military oriented; the political benefit was merely an added bonus. The atomic bomb was necessary due to the Japanese’s refusal to surrender and the hundreds of thousands of lives at stake.…

    the works bomb

    One of the coolest things about chemistry has to be blowing things up. It gives you the satisfaction of knowing your experiment worked (or sometimes failed), plus it’s just a lot of fun to watch something blow up. One of the most popular experiments seems to be the Works bomb. It’s not a “bomb” in the sense that it explodes into flames and leaves a big hole in the ground, but it makes an extremely loud bang and steams a little bit. It’s a pressure bomb. The gas created from the reaction of hydrochloric acid and aluminum fills a plastic bottle until it ruptures.…

    Nuclear Bomb Dbq

    U.S. President Harry S. Truman publicly announced his decision to support the development of the hydrogen bomb, a weapon theorized to be hundreds of times more powerful than the atomic bombs dropped on Japan during World War II. He approved of the funding for the nuclear weapon because of several events prior to his public announcement. One of the reasons was the fact that the United States had lost its nuclear supremacy when the Soviet Union successfully detonated an atomic bomb at their test site in Kazakhstan in 1949. Another reason why he decided to fund experiments for nuclear weapons is because the British and U.S. intelligence discovered that Klaus Fuchs, a top-ranking scientist in the U.S. nuclear program, was a spy for the Soviet Union.…

    Louisa May Alcott's Little Women

    "Let my name stand among those who are willing to bear ridicule and reproach for the truth's sake, and so earn some right to rejoice when victory is won." Louisa May Alcott wrote many inspirational novels that explain her personality and her hardships in life. Her writing supported her family, no matter where she was. When Alcott died, her older sister was left and still received the money from her sister's still selling books. Alcott's books are still being sold today, though they may be hard to find. Her most known novel, Little Women, taught the world to appreciate what you have in life, though you may wish for more, what you have is as important as the "fancy" things. Throughout her career, Louisa May Alcott wrote about the many things…

    The Bomb That Rapidly Changed The World

    The atomic bomb is a bomb that rapidly releases energy causing destructive damage through heat. The atomic bomb dropped on Japan was not needed it was an evil act and was unnecessary. It was undoubtedly not required to drop a 4-ton barbaric weapon that is equivalent to 5 million dollars on another country. The United States Military had already launched a sea blockade that consisted of a submarine campaign before the bomb was dropped. It was cutting food and supplies. Not only was it already beaten by seas. There was a massive amount of air attacks; the United States already had control of the Japanese air space before the atomic bomb. With Majority control of Japans airs the United States conducted many raids on Japan causing extensive destruction by dropping over tens of thousands pounds of bombs. This had already caused massive destruction to towns and cities. It was a race towards who could have the first atomic bomb. When The United States Successfully accomplished the bomb it was at first a way to initiate Japan into Surrendering but the second bomb was a way to show superiority towards the rest of the world that America is very powerful. The alternative is what could have happened if the bomb was not used? Japan was already getting dominated by sea and by air they were being isolated and not allowed resources it was only a matter of time till Japan could have surrendered. If the bombs were not used there would not be near as many deaths and utter destruction. But we cannot no for sure if Japan could have surrendered or not, and if they did not surrender what could have been lost? Many American troops would have lost their lives. But instead of a civilian loss it could have been a military loss. Japan was already dominated by the United States they were running out of resources and did not have long until rioting would have started the United States was a huge problem for Japan. They were surrounded. The only…

    Atomic Bomb

    As a citizen from the U.S.A., I believe that we should not drop the bomb in Japan.The use of the bomb without warning is contrary to the position of the United States as a great humanitarian nation, especially since Japan seems close to surrender.More than 60 of its cities have been destroyed by conventional bombing, the home islands are being blockaded by the American Navy, and the Soviet Union entered the war by attacking Japanese troops in Manchuria. Even general Dwight Eisenhower said that the Japanese are soon to be surrender. A surprise use of the bomb would damage the respect that we have built up in the world community. It is morally wrong and will set a bad precedent in the future. Because such a weapon could lead to a proliferation of similar weapons that would threaten future generations. To use it now would be an international crime.The whole world will just become a nuclear world. We just ended a war with the most infamous Germans to fight for what we believed . If we drop the bomb, isn't it against our beliefs? Remember how France and Britain made the unfair treaty with Germans? A treaty that they believed would end all wars. However as history shows us , this is certainly not true because years later, the Germans rose again and this time brought a bigger war than the previous Great War. This is will certainly alarm us, because what if the Japanese follow in German footsteps and make a bigger war in the future? Not only that, but by dropping the bomb it also means that we see the Japanese as savages instead of humans. The Japanese are already defeated and ready to surrender. If the U.S.A. becomes the first to use this weapon, then we will have adopted the ethical standard of barbarians. Atomic weapons are similar to poison gas – both are barbaric.The U.S.A. should not shock the world with such a weapon.…

    Atomic Bomb

    The former president, Harry Truman had to make one of the most crucial decisions of his life. On August 6, 1945 during World War II, he decided to drop the atomic bomb on two cities in Japan. The first bomb that dropped on Hiroshima was nicknamed “Little Boy”. The explosion wiped out 90 percent of the Hiroshima and immediately killed an estimation of 80,000 people; thousands more people would later die of radiation exposure. Three days later, a second bomb dropped another on the city of Nagasaki, it is estimated to have killed about 40,000 people. Although the bomb that was dropped on the city of Nagasaki was said to be more powerful than the first one, the terrain prevented them from more damages. Japan's Emperor Hirohito announced a surrender from the war on August 15, addressed on the radio. The two cities were ultimately chosen to be target because they were untouched during the war. Harry Truman’s decision is both unjustifiable and immoral.…
