One plane was used to actually make the drop on each city. However, there were additional planes used as support and observation on each mission. The Hiroshima mission used seven planes, and the Nagasaki mission used six planes. See Sources and related links for more information.
None, the hydrogen bomb (more correctly known as a fusion bomb) did not exist in a form that could be delivered by plane until 1954 (9 years after the end of WW2) when it was developed from the Runt device tested in Castle Romeo shot. And then this bomb was so big that it would only fit the bombbay of the B-36, a plane not operational until after the war. The bomb available in 1954, the EC-17 would explode before the delivery plane could escape and so its blast would tear the B-36 that delivered it to pieces. In 1955 a ribbon parachute was added to slow the fall of the bomb, updating these bombs to MK-17 bombs allowing the B-36 to fly far enough to escape the blast and return to base.
Assuming you meant fission bomb, 6 planes in total: there were 2 missions (Hiroshima & Nagasaki) with 3 planes each - one strike plane carrying the bomb and two instrumentation, recognizance, observer planes to collect data, take photos and films, etc. of the attack.
One B-29 plane scorted by two B-29 planes. That is why the Japanese thought it was not an attack. They thought those were weather planes.
The Japanese had 414 aircraft that strafed and/or bombed Pearl Harbor.
It was only one escorted by two more.
There were 12 men on the Enola Gay. The mission to drop atomic bomb on Hiroshima involved 7 planes, but the one we remember is the Enola Gay.
They dropped the atomic bomb to end the war and stop further allied lives being lost.
The USA only had 2 atomic bombs.
9.9 meters an atomic bomb can efect a city or a place
The use of the bomb was necessary. Japan was getting overconfident in their abilities after the bombing of Pearl Harbor. If Truman did not drop the atomic bomb, many more people would have been killed as a result of the ensuing battle. I do believe that the effects of the atomic bomb on human lives and the fallout mean that the atomic bomb should only ever be used in the most dire of circumstances to save more lives than it ends.

The advocates against the bomb state that too many civilian casualties, the illness it brought and the devastation.
from roughly 30,000 feet to detonation at roughly 1500 feet.

Japan didn't drop a singular bomb on Pearl Harbor. They sent 2 waves of Japanese planes who dropped small bombs all over, killing tons of civilians and destroying many planes and battleships.

An atomic bomb can approximately destroy 100 square miles.

four million people would have did if we did not use the atomic bomb
