How did the USSR help the US to beat Japan?

They didn't. By the time the USSR finished fighting Germany (by themselves because Churchill and FDR didn't want to help), the US had been fighting Japan for a while. The USSR did declare war on Japan after the Germans surrendered. Before the USSR could do anything, the US dropped it's two atomic bombs. The Japanese were rumored to have started peace negotiations with the USSR agreeing to act as the liason after the Little Boy bombing, but the Fat Man prevented it. Many say the US bombed Japan because they didn't want the USSR sweeping in as the hero.

What did people think happened after the atomic bomb in hiroshima?

The people of Hiroshima likely thought that they had been bombed by the Allies. Remember that by August 1945 most of Japan had been destroyed by Allied bombing. For almost three months the people of Japan had been bombed almost every day. Although Hiroshima had been spared from these bombings the people there would have just figured that their luck had run out.


What places did the Japanese bombed during world war 2?

It depends where you place the start of World War 2. Japan had been fighting a war in China for years before the "Pacific War" started and many towns and villages were bombed there. This was the main reason the USA placed economic sanctions on Japan which precipitated the attack on Hawaii. Japan also bombed many places such as; Pearl Harbour, various airfields and towns in the Philippines, Singapore, many parts of the Dutch East Indies (now Indonesia), Darwin (Australia), parts of Burma and Calcutta in India. Many islands in the Pacific Ocean were bombed as part of the expansion of the area held by Japanese forces. From the Aleutian Islands in the north, to Midway, Wake, Guam and further south to the Solomon Islands and Port Moresby (New Guinea). An attempt to bomb the USA from Japan was tried using balloons which killed a woman and some children in Oregon.
