In August 1945 the world changed. Two American atomic bombs were dropped on Japan with devastating effects. On the 6th of August 1945‚ the Enola Gay‚ a B- 29 Superfortress plane‚ dropped the atomic bomb "Little Boy" on Hiroshima. This single bomb killed 80‚000 people immediately and about 60‚000 more within six months. On August 9‚ a second atomic bomb that ultimately killed about 70‚000 people was dropped on Nagasaki. The dropping of these nuclear bombs is perhaps one of the most debated decisions

BEAN BAG ISOTOPES:ABUNDANCE AND ATOMIC MASS LAB Prelab A new atomic theory‚ in which all atoms of the same element are identical to one another and equal in mass‚ was proposed by the scientist Dalton. Although the theory had its flaws and was simple‚ it was revolutionary. Scientists became able to study the actual structure and mass of atoms after the discovery of radioactivity. Soon‚ isotopes were discovered‚ as atoms of the same element which have been built up to have different masses. Purpose

advisers knew it.” Men like Barton J. Bernstein began to counter many arguments for the use of the atomic bomb‚ including using the bomb to intimidate Russia. https://www.nps.gov/articles/trumanatomicbomb.htmHowever‚ the Truman was given four alternatives which included conventional bombing of the Japanese home islands‚ ground invasion of the Japanese home islands‚ and demonstration of the Atomic Bomb on an unpopulated/populated area. Moreover‚ Japan would have collapsed before the invasion due

American theoretical physicist and professor for the University of California at Berkeley. During WWII‚ he was appointed as the head of the Los Alamos Laboratory where he played a crucial role in the development of the atomic bomb and gained the nickname "The Father of the Atomic Bomb". After the war‚ he was appointed the chairman of the General Advisory Energy Commission and served as a prominent voice on the use of nuclear weaponry until passed away at age 62‚ due to cancer‚ in 1967.

lines (see diagram 6). From this theory‚ Faraday felt that light was the motion or vibration of these lines of force. Faraday’s most well known theory‚ occurring during his study of sound‚ states that light was created through the vibration of lines of force. This scientist was not swayed by the common idea that the ether was an all-pervading matter. The main reason he did not believe in the theory of the ether was based on the fact that he felt that scientific theories should be supported by experimental

negative effects. The Atomic bomb caused mass destruction‚ and it was a highly risky move to begin with. The Kamikaze raids were destructive‚ but not on the same scale as the as the atomic bomb. We have ended World War 2 ‚ but at what expense? Constantly fearing for the safety of our own country‚ as well as others? If a situation develops in which rival countries have the same means of destruction‚ we are in danger of entire cities being annihilated. The decision to use the atomic bomb was unjustified

It is 1945‚ at the end of World War II‚ America is at the final stages of deciding to drop the atomic bomb on Japan or not. There are many factors that have been taken into consideration based off of the economic stress‚ the losses and the constant pressure to fight for democracy across the communistic nations. The factors that justified the government in creating The Manhattan Project are morally justified in commitment to the American people for the great loss in Pearl Harbor and among the many

Soon after Japan’s surrender‚ Oppenheimer was called into President Truman’s office to discuss how the scientists and military could continue working together to make more atomic bombs. Oppenheimer tried to change the subject to international cooperation and trying to stop the arms race before it began. This was the complete opposite of Truman’s wishes. Oppenheimer proceeded to say things such as‚” I have blood on my hands
