The simpelest answer is that the US had two bombs available at that time
in history and was seeking the fastest way to end WW2 without invading
Japan and risking the tremendous causalties such actions might produce.
because we were going to drop all the atomic bombs we could produce on japan as fast as we could produce them and get them to the field for delivery. the US had production plans, industrial facilities, and aircraft capable of producing a total of 23 atomic bombs and delivering them to japan before the end of 1945. only their surrender prevented more than the first 2 from being used(the 3rd had already been built and shipped to San Francisco prior to the announcement of their intension to surrender and would have been used in late august).
note: problems with the hanford production reactors (see: wigner effect) caused reductions in plutonium production around late october, so this schedule probably could not have been maintained exactly as planned. but still many more atomic bombs than just the 2 used could have been dropped on japan had they continued fighting.
Hundreds of thousands of bombs were dropped on Japan. Only two atomic bombs were dropped. As in all warfare, bombing is designed to destroy the enemy's ability to resist.
In the hopes of ending WWII, the USA dropped two atomic bombs on Japan; the first on Hiroshima on 6 Aug, 1945 and the second on Aug 9, 1945. Japan surrendered on August 15, 1945.
President Truman stated that this weapon will end the war and save thoundands of lives.
The empire of Japan did not surrender after the 1st bomb, so President Truman ordered another be dropped.
To end WW2, ASAP!
