Best Answer

"Little Boy" the first atomic bomb used in warfare was dropped on Hiroshima, Japan on August 6th, and "Fat Man" the second atomic bomb was dropped on Nagasaki, Japan on August 9th. Although Japan was already ready to surrender before the atom bombs were dropped, they did not surrender when the first bomb was dropped, which caused the US to drop the second one. After the second atomic bomb was dropped, Imperial Japan surrendered 5 days later, and the surrender ceremony was September 2nd, which also ended World War 2.
