The United States called for a surrender of Japan in the Potsdam Declaration on July 26, 1945, threatening Japan with "prompt and utter destruction".
They did but they had decided to surrender before the bombs. August 6 1945, US drops the first bomb. Meanwhile Japan was hoping for Russia to help with the procedure but Russia declared war against Japan and invaded Manchuria making a mess of Japan's service men there. Japan did know to surrender to the United States than surrender to Russia.
After the Japanese had bombed Pearl Harbor, the Allies bombed Japanese cities including Tokyo. In 1943, the Allies won the Battle of Midway. Shortly after joining WWII (1942) the US started a top secret project known as the Manhattan Project. Led by American scientist J. Oppenheimer, the team worked for 3 years to build an atomic bomb. After officials successfully tested the bomb, they told the Japanese to surrender, or they would face destruction. The Japanese refused to give in. On August 6, 1945, The B-29 bomber 'Enola Gay' dropped an atomic bomb on the city of Hiroshima. They still didn't surrender so another atomic bomb was dropped. On August 14, Japan surrendered. Long story short, the Japanese wouldn't surrender so they dropped the atomic bomb. The Japanese still didn't surrender so they dropped another atomic bomb killing more people and they finally surrendered on August 14.
No one. The allies dropped an a-bomb on Hiroshima, and the Japanese did not surrender. Then they dropped a bomb on Nagasaki, and still the Japanese, controlled by their Army did not surrender; however, a bit later, more reasonable people in Japan caused them to surrender.
There would have been NO surrender.
No, there was no warning, other than a request to the Japanese government that they surrender.
There none before the bombs. Japanese were willing to dye fighting.
Fear of loss of face.
Like ancient Sparta before it, surrender was not an option. It was considered a disgrace.
