Atomic Bomb Persuasive Speech

“This bomb works by the splitting of atomic nuclei. Atoms are what make up everything, but you can not see them they are so

Document 2 describes that the Japanese surrender was not a result of the atomic bombs. The United States had hit 60 cities with their high explosive bombs and made Japan inaccessible to a wide-ranging war. This reveals that the Japanese had no access to a large war because of the raids caused by the Americans. The bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki was a way that the Americans got the Japanese to surrender. The United States bombing on Japan was similar to the raids because it killed many people but found a way to make Japan to give up.

Technology has allowed for the furtherance of warfare, from the invention of gun powder to the splitting of the atom. These findings have propelled the leap of numerous nations’ in the ability to wage war against each other. Of these discoveries, the splitting atom spawned an invention that would hurl the world from conventional warfare into the nuclear age. These ideals were the brainstorming of some of the greatest minds in America and abroad. These scientists began to formulate the creation of the atomic bomb, a device that would change the world in ways that had never been imagined before.

Japanese forces to surrender or prepare for a new lethal weapon at the Potsdam Convention

In conclusion, the Japanese are a resilient and honor bond people who know when they are beaten. This along with all the other statements mentioned in this paper goes to show that Japan would have surrendered if the bombs were not dropped. Although funding the War would have been much harder to do. Many more Americans and Japanese soldiers would have died as well. But, in the end the bombs didn’t need to be

Was dropping the atomic bomb on Japan the best way for the United States to force Japan to surrender unconditionally? World War II was a war fought between the Allied Powers and the Axis Powers. The main Allies were France before it fell, the USSR, the United Kingdom and the United States. The main Axis were Italy, Japan and Germany. War broke out in 1939 and did not end until 1945. On May 8, 1945 the Allies won victory over Europe, thereby they won victory over Italy and Germany. However the Allies did not defeat nor receive the surrender of Japan until months later. The Japanese would not and did not surrender until the United States dropped a new weapon of war. This “no surrender” was  mainly due to the Japanese code of the samurai, or

The policy of unconditional surrender: Dropping the Atomic Bomb will play right into the policy of unconditional surrender because the bomb will put the Japanese Leaders on their heels and force them to unconditionally surrender in order to save their nation.

Fundamental of Science (Assignment 1) Measuring Quantities for Chemical Reactions P1 1. The atom is mainly made up of two specific regions : the positively charged nucleus made up of protons and neutrons, and the shells (orbitals) in which electrons are present, were they orbit around the positively charged nucleus to create a neutral atom. The Atoms are thus made up of three subatomic particles: The proton, neutrons and electrons. The protons are positively charged while the electrons are negatively charged, and the neutrons are neutral.

“In 1957, with the arms race in full swing, the Department of Defense had decided it was just a matter of time before an airplane transporting an atomic bomb would crash on American soil, unleashing a radioactive disaster the likes of which the world had never seem.” On August 6, 1945, the first atomic bomb was dropped on Hiroshima, killing 20,000 soldiers and 70,000 – 126,000 civilians. On August 9, 1945, the second atomic bomb was dropped on Nagasaki, killing 39,000 – 80,000. A total of 129,000 – 226,000 people were killed in combining both bomb droppings. Dropping both atomic bombs on Japan was necessary to end the war because the military needed to end the war, the Japanese were given fair warnings

To create a nuclear bomb, nuclear fission must occur. The process of nuclear fission was splitting the nucleus of an atom. Splitting an atom was caused by neutrons firing through one atom and then that atom’s neutrons shoot off into other atoms, starting a chain reaction. In October of 1934, Enrico Fermi, and

The U.S. didn't know the power and effect of the atomic bomb so they decided to drop it on a city filled with innocent people and children. “Hundreds of thousands of civilians with no democratic rights to oppose their militarist government, including women and children, were vaporized, turned into charred blobs of carbon, horrifically burned, buried in rubble, speared by flying debris, and saturated with radiation.” Innocent people didn’t have to die to have the war come to an end. The atomic bomb was not the right thing to do and it wasn't necessary at all. Some people may say the Japanese were given a fair warning and the Japanese could have surrendered right then and there.

The United States had what they needed to protect themselves; it was just a matter of time until they needed to use it. On August 10, the day after the atomic bomb had been dropped on Nagasaki, the Japanese government had surrendered under the terms they had previously ignored. Dropping the atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki was a brutal but necessary action to bring an end to the war in the pacific and resulted in fewer deaths than an invasion or a faulty attack may have caused.

The Atomic Bomb was the deadliest weapons in the history of war. Throughout World War II one of the most stubborn countries to surrender was Japan who relentlessly fought against the United States of America. After failing to defeat America, Japan was overwhelmed by allied forces. Staying with tradition however, Japan would rather die in battle than to surrender. The Soviet Union also fought against America but that was towards the end of the war. The United States dropped both of the Atomic Bombs in order to intimidate the Soviet Union and to make Japan to surrender unconditionally.

On August 6, 1945, after forty-four months of increasingly brutal fighting in the Pacific, an American B-29 bomber loaded with a devastating new weapon flew in the sky over Hiroshima, Japan waiting for a signal. Minutes later the signal was given, that new weapon, the atomic bomb, was released. Its enormous destructive energy detonated in the sky, killing one hundred thousand Japanese civilians instantly. Three days later, on August 9, 1945, the United States dropped a second atomic bomb over the city of Nagasaki, with similarly devastating results, killing seventy-thousand Japanese citizens. The following week, Japan’s emperor addressed his country over the radio to announce the decision was made to surrender. At that moment World War II had finally come to its dramatic conclusion. Even though some people defend the atomic bombings, because of a weak Japan refusing to give up, the U.S. could’ve chosen a less populated area of Japan to bomb, like the coast to warn the Japanese. Claiming thousands of innocent lives, prove that the U.S. unnecessarily dropped the Atomic Bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

Getting energy from nuclear reactions is a well-established science, tracing back to the discovery of radioactive elements, and eventually to harnessing the energy within those reactions for human needs. The basis of nuclear power is the use of nuclear fission to generate heat, which changes water into steam, and powers a turbine. Nuclear fission is related to radioactive decay, which was discovered in the late 1800s by Henri Becquerel and furthered by Marie and Pierre Curie. Nuclear fission itself was the work of Enrico Fermi – a physicist from Italy. Fermi would later help create the first self-sustaining chain reaction on the grounds of the University of Chicago in 1942. The understanding of nuclear fission and the ability to create chain reactions would lead to the Manhattan Project, culminating in the dropping of two nuclear bombs over Japan at the end of World War II. The technology would later be adapted into more peaceful purposes such as generating energy. Nuclear fission works by bombarding the radioactive element – usually uranium, but sometimes plutonium – with neutrons. When the neutron hits the element, it will split into two lighter atoms, releasing more neutrons, and energy. Those
