Who was the first to make an atomic bomb?
The US developed the first nuclear fission weapons (atomic bombs) during World War II as part of the Manhattan Project, a top-secret military program that saw several firsts in nuclear chain reaction experiments. Through the work of many international physicists and other experts, the US exploded the first a-bomb near Alamogordo, New Mexico on July 16, 1945. The following two bombs were used in August, 1945, against the Empire of Japan, destroying the cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
What were the financial effects of the Manhattan project?
The financial effects of the Manhattan Project were two fold. The bombs cost over two billion dollars to build back then. There were residual costs of helping Japanese people who were harmed by the bomb and there is still a team of scientists studying the effects of the bomb and following the care of the injured and sick people affected by radiation sicknesses and cancers and burns. Another affect of the project was an improvement in the economy of the United States and a small area of Canada. It provided thousands of jobs and many of the workers put money away and were able to improve their lives after the war with their savings. The worst effect however were the trillions of dollars spent after World War 2 on the silly arms race during the Cold War. If the bomb had not been created the arms race may not have occurred, but who knows perhaps it would have happened in later years.
How many atomic bombs did the US have during the Manhattan Project?
The Manhattan Project began in 1942 and ended in August 1947, with the establishment of the Atomic Energy Commission. A rough estimate is that in this time 15 to 20 atomic bombs had been built, with 5 of those detonated, leaving a stockpile by the time the Manhattan Project ended of 10 to 15 atomic bombs.
What weapons were invented in World War 2?
There are many weapons that they used in the war but the one that I no is guns & bombs we just made bombs as a project in class it was FUNNY:)
How many jobs were created for Manhattan Project?
More than one hundred twenty thousand jobs were created from the Manhattan Project.
How many people helped in the Manhattan Project?
130000 people

Why did so many scientists choose to work on the Manhattan project?
Most of them were patriots and some other was soviet spies.
Was Atomic bomb developed in Chicago?
The atomic bomb was not developed in Manhattan, but was developed by the Manhattan Project. The project was headed by General Leslie R. Groves Jr. with Robert J. Oppenheimer as scientific director and had several development sites across the United States. The primary facilities were Los Alamos, New Mexico, Oak Ridge, Tennessee, and the Hanford Site in Washington state. The reason the project was named Manhattan Project was that its original administrative offices were in Manhattan, at the existing US Army Corps of Engineers offices, until they were relocated to Oak Ridge, Tennessee when adequate facilities for such offices had been built. But the name Manhattan stuck (probably partly because it made a good "cover", hiding the purpose/location of the project - as the name "Radiation Lab" obscured the project working on RADAR).
How many nuclear bombs are being made by the us?
None, the US currently only refurbishes existing bombs.
