Japan knew that Hiroshima had been bombed. They were trying to determine what type of weapon it was. Three days later, Nagasaki took a hit. It was decided that determining what type of weapon it was...was no longer important; whatever type of weapon it was, if any more were dropped (Japan didn't know that there were no more atomic bombs...at least for a few months) Japan would not exist anymore. The weapon was that powerful! So they had no choice (so they thought) and surrendered.

When was the first atomic bomb dropped on an enemy city and on which city was it dropped?
It was first dropped on August 6, 1945 by the United States on Hiroshima, Japan. A second one was also dropped three days later on Nagasaki, Japan. Those two bombs are credited with bringing an end to World War II less than two weeks later, with the surrender of Japan on August 15, 1945. Ironically, as devastating as they were, the dropping of those bombs may have actually saved numerous Japanese lives, as the country was preparing to dig in and defend itself in what would have been a lengthy (and likely very bloody) war of attrition.
