No just two ... The U.S. had another atomic bomb ready to go by late August, with two more by mid September but they were not used.

  1. august, 3 bombs - all 3 built, only the first 2 used
  2. september, 3 bombs
  3. october, 3 bombs
  4. november, 7 bombs

Was there a 3RD nuclear bomb for Japan?

It was being assembled but not yet on the Island of Tinian.The 3rd bomb arrived in San Francisco on August 18, 1945 (4 days after the surrender) for Tibbets to fly back to Tinian. As the war was already over, it was then returned to Los Alamos.The U.S. bomb production schedule and facilities were ready to drop another 20 more on Japan in 1945, if needed. The schedule was as follows:September, 3 bombs (plutonium core)October, 3 bombs (plutonium core)November, 7 bombs (composite plutonium/uranium core)December, 7 bombs (composite plutonium/uranium core)So actually, there was not only a 3rd bomb scheduled for Japan, but a grand total of 23 nuclear bombs scheduled for Japan in 1945 if they failed to surrender!Swords of Armageddon, by Chuck Hanson.

Where was the first atomic bomb used?

In the history of warfare, only two nuclear weapons have been detonated offensively. The first was at Hiroshima, Japan, and the second was at Nagasaki, Japan. The weapons, the Little Boyand the Fat Man respectively, were dropped by the U.S. There was one nuclear test, the so-called Trinity test, that preceeded these bombings. In that test, the U.S. actually set off a nuclear device for the first time in history. Following that successful test, the other two bombs were built and deployed.
