90,000-166,000
Hiroshima's population has been estimated at 350,000; approximately 70,000 died immediately from the explosion and another 70,000 died from radiation within five years.
There were around 90,000-166,000 people in Hiroshima and 60,000-80,000 in Nagasaki. Half of them died from radiation sickness.
the effect is that a lot of innocent people died. but japan killed a lot of our people
Hiroshmo and nocisage
as many as 140.000! :( from ciara meehan (: ♥ Wrong
Harry S. Truman. FDR died about 4 months prior to the atomic bombs being dropped.
Hiroshima, on August 6th, 1945. A second one was dropped shortly after on Nagasaki on August 9th, 1945. Between 300,000-400,000 civilians (and a few military personnel) were killed in both bomb drops. Note: About 150,000 were killed instantaneously, while another 150,000 died of burns, radiation sickness, and cancer in subsequent days, months, and years.
Maybe, but it depends on where you are. When the atomic bomb was dropped in Japan 800;000 people died in an instant. If they were in a bomb shelter they probably wouldn't have lived. The heat would have cooked them like it did in Pompeii. It got so hot in Japan that water boiled instantly and shoes burned off people's feet.
None the atom bombs were used by the U.S. against Japan in 1945
The atomic bomb has never been used in Mexico, but it has been used in Japan during World War II. The atomic bomb caused many devastating effects, such as deformities in people and crushing buildings.
They were losing anyway. the war would have gone on for 2-3 more years and lots of other people would have died. was that better? That's something each one has to decide for himself
