What effect did the Japanese attack on pearl harbor have on US foreign?
The United States took a definitive stance in World War II by declaring war on Japan. Previously, the United States had been neutral with Allied proclivities, but now it was a new Allied Power. Within the following days, the Nazi Germans and the Italians declared war on the United States to reciprocate the US declaration of war on Japan. However, since the United States' strongest ally was the United Kingdom, both FDR and Churchill found it more prudent to put the strongest effort in winning the war in Europe before turning their effort more strongly to the Pacific.
Naturally, because of the declaration of war, the United States ceased trade with the Axis powers and all Axis-Occupied Countries or Partners.

Concentration camps were established in 1933 and were primarily for political prisoners. Extermination camps were first established in 1941 and were for groups that the Nazis wanted to exterminate completely - Jews and 'gypsies'.
From late 1944 onwards some Jews were transferred from the more easterly camps, especially Auschwitz, to ordinary concentration camps and the distinction became somewhat blurred.

What aircraft has two engines on one wing and one engine on the other wing?
The only instance of one wing having more engines than the other that I'e seen is when an extra (non-operating) engine is hung on a wing in order to transport it to another facility where maintenance is being performed. An aircraft as you described would be asymmetrical. Very few asymmetrical aircraft have been designed. During WW2, the Germans built a Blohm und VossBV-141 that had an engine on one side and the pilot in a fuselage on the other. The link below shows how the aerodynamic forces were balanced.

What qualities made Japanese well suited for their involvement in the attack of the pearl harbor?
Surprise first and foremost. They had better quality aircraft, and more of them because our aircraft carriers were out at sea at the time. and they had more experienced pilots, as they had been fighting a war for several years against Korea and China so their pilots had real combat experience, where ours had none. There were other advantages also, but that would be my top three.

It wasn't so much the geographical features that made them hard to defend; the U.S. had a much better Navy than the Japanese, which made it easy for them to attack the Japanese positions on land with artillery shells from their cannons and machine guns.
