Depending on the date an time, simply because when they were first exposed to its effect on Japan they had no nuclear device available as a counter measure. Because they had gained the intelligence advantage, they were able to produce their own bomb on the cheap. End of US intimidation of the world and the Cold War began.

How many atomic bombs would equal a super nova?
As both atomic bombs and supernovas vary in yield, this question has no single answer.
How did Harry Truman know that Korea had atomic bombs?
North Korea had no atomic bombs at the time of the Korean War. What Truman was concerned about was the Soviet atomic bombs and the high probability that Stalin would respond to our use of atomic bombs in that conflict by declaring full scale nuclear war on the US.
Would the cities bombed by the atomic bomb just be bombed by the fire bombs?
See: Atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki
Atomic bombs vs regular bombs?
If what you mean is,is an atomic bomb stronger or weaker then a regular bomb then it's the atomic bomb,a regular bomb would have only damaged Hiroshima not completely killed it( the U.S also bomb Nagasaki)
Why the US use an atomic bomb to end the war in the pacific?
Japan refused to surrender. Japan did not believe in surrender, and hated people who did surrender instead of dying to the last person. Pres. Truman dropped two atomic bombs on Japan and Japan surrendered. It was either two atomic bombs or invasion of Japan. Invasion of Japan would mean that the war would last another year and kill a lot more people than the atomic bombs did. Japan surrendered after Nagasaki was bombed, not after Hiroshima. It was either the atomic bombs or invasion. Atomic bombs were the lesser of two evils.
Which was used as justification to use the atomic bomb against Japan?
The justification for public consumption was that it would end the war quicker.The internal justification was:to let Russia knowAmerica had atomic bombs (not just one)to let Russia know America was not afraid to use themto let Russia know that America had no qualms about killing massive number of innocent civilians without warnings

Are atomic bombs different from nuclear bombs?
Both basically are the same, they can be fission or fusion bombs like Uranium,Plutonium and Hydrogen bombs. A general description would be that atomic bombs are fission bombs. Nuclear bombs are fusion bombs. Fusion bombs are more powerful weight for weight

Why would people want to use atomic bombs?
See atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki
Why would you do a report on the atomic bombs?
It would be a good report for a class of history.
What would happen if 5000 atomic bombs detonate in the middle of a black hole?
If atomic bombs entered a black hole, they wouldn't be able to detonate; instead, they would initially be stretched and crushed, and as they travel beyond the event horizon, they would be converted into gravitational energy. However, if you wereable to manage to get 5000 atomic bombs inside a black hole and detonate them, nothing would happen. The black hole would continue to exist as it always had; it would just be 5000-atomic-bombs-worth-of-weight heavier.
What was the use of atomic bombs?
If the atomin bomb didnt work. The preident (Harry Truman) would launch an all-out attack on Japan that I would estimate kill as much people as 20 atomic bombs.
What are Plutonium atomic bombs?
Plutonium was and still is used for atomic bombs. The atomic bombs you are talking about would be fat man and little boy. They were the two used to bomb Hiroshima and Nagasaki Many people were killed when the b-29 bomber dropped fat man.
What percentage of Americans know the number of atomic bombs dropped on Japan?
there were two million atomic bombs but i would not know im just a stupid American and i like pie!
Would giving soviets the atomic bomb secrets prevented the cold war would it have evened out the playing field?
No, because the soviets already had all the atomic bomb secrets even before the bombs were dropped on Japan! The secrets were handed to them by spies at Los Alamos who were designing the bombs!The only thing that delayed a soviet atomic bomb from 1945 to 1949 when they detonated their copy of Fatman (built directly from stolen Fatman plans) was the time it took to build the industrial infrastructure needed to make plutonium and the other bomb components.Another thing to realize is there are no real secrets about nuclear weapons. It is all physics that any good physicist can figure out. The soviets actually had their own independent atomic bomb design by 1947 that was better than the stolen Fatman, but Beria would not let the atomic scientists build and test it until after the stolen Fatman design was tested (and nothing could be tested until 1949 as stated above). Both the US and USSR independently developed and tested hydrogen bombs only 1 year apart!
Would the 1945 atomic bombs have affected the UK weather of early 1947?
No.
