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.

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.
It is not necessary to drop atomic bomb to end the war?
It could have not been necessary to drop the atomic bombs to end the war. That would have meant invading Japan. Think Iwo Jima times 10 million. We would have had millions of casulties. Also, we would have lost most of our (the U.S.) fleet because of Japanese kamakasies. In the end, the Atomic bombs saved more lives than the lives lost. The soilders would have had to kill all the Japanese in Japan that had a gun, which would have been MANY of them. In my opinion, the Atomic bombs saved MANY more lives than an invasion of japan.
Should the US have bombed Hiroshima?
The justification for the dropping of the two atomic bombs was to save lives. Without the atomic bombs America would have had to invade Japan and there would have been hundreds of thousands of casualties.If America had invaded Japan then many Americans and Japanese would have died in the urban warfare that would have ensued.The Japanese would have literally fought to the death, and the war would have lasted another year.I believe that the dropping of the atomic bombs saved more lives than were lost in the explosions.yes

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.
