(Cont.)
Harry Trauman
The U.S. President
• Japan refused the
Declaration.
• The USA did not want
to invade Japan.
• They reasoned that
using an Atomic-
bomb would deliver a
huge blow to Japan.
• This would save the
lives of hundreds of
thousands of
American troops.
Potsdam Declaration
Possible Target
Locations…• The target committee at Los
Alamos from May 10 – 11, 1945,
recommended Kyoto,
Hiroshima, Yokohama, and
arsenal at Kokura as possible
targets.
• The psychological effects on the
Japanese citizens were
important to the committee
members.
• The target location for the
detonation of the bomb should
be spectacular for international
recognition.
• Kyoto, Hiroshima, Kokura, and
Niigata.
The Manhattan
Project….• The research on atom bomb
was called Manhattan project
• Los Alamos National
Laboratory and Lawrence
Livermore National Laboratory
were the two laboratories in
the United States where work
towards the design of nuclear
weapons have been
undertaken.
• The first nuclear test was
located near Alamogordo, New
Mexico, under code name
“Trinity” on July 16, 1945

The Bomb Day…
• In the morning of the 6th
August
1945 plans of first atomic
mission were set.
• A B-29 Superfortress bomber
named the Enola Gay, under
colonel Paul Tibbits was chosen to
drop the first bomb on Hiroshima
• They left Tinian north field airbase
in the West Pacific.
• The six hour flight went exactly as
expected.
• The bomb was armed midway and
clear weather permitted for
accuracy.

‘Little Boy’ before loading to B-29
bomber ‘Enola Gay’
• ‘Little boy’ was one of the first
kind of nuclear weapons that
the world had seen.
• ‘Little boy was a Gun-type
fission bomb or a non nuclear
explosive blasts a uranium
wedge down a gun barrel into a
uranium target causing the
fission reaction.
• Fission occurs when the
nucleus of an atom is split.
When it happens, gamma rays
are emitted. If fission occurs,
high amounts of energy in the
form of radiation are released.

Boy…
The Bomb Day…
• At 8.15 am, the Bomb The
Bomb was fused and set to
explode about 2000 ft. above
the center of the town.
• It took 43 sec to reach its
designated altitude.
• It had a blast that was
equivalent to 13 kilotons of
TNT.
• The radius of total
destruction was about one
mile (1.6 km), with resulting
fires across 4.4 square miles
(11 km2
).

Immediate Aftermath..
• According to most estimates the
bombing of Hiroshima killed
approximately 70,000 people due
to immediate effects of blast.
• Estimate of total deaths by the end
of 1945 “140,000” due to burns,
radiation and related diseases.
• Most deaths and injuries occurred
when people were trapped in their
burning houses or struck by
debris.
• Of the city’s 90,000 buildings,
60,000 were destroyed
• This left many survivors homeless

• Three days later on August 9, 1945, the
second atomic bomb named “Fat Man”
was dropped on Nagasaki.
• The Fat Man weapon, containing a core
of about 6.4 kilograms (14 lb.)
of plutonium, was dropped over the
city's industrial valley.
• It exploded 43 seconds later at 469
m(1,539 ft.) above the ground. This was
nearly 3 km (1.9 mi) northwest of the
planned hypocenter.
• The resulting explosion had a blast yield
equivalent to 21 kilotons of TNT (88 TJ).
Next Target..
• Bockscar a B-29 bomber
Superfortress, flown by
Major Charles W. Sweeney
dropped the “Fat Man” on
August 9, 1945.
• Sometimes called Bock’s
car.
• The Bockscar did didn't
have enough fuel to return
to Tinian or Iwo Jima, so
Major Sweeney flew the
aircraft to Okinawa for an
emergency landing with
practically dry fuel tanks.
Next Target..
Bockscar With its crew
Immediate Aftermath..
• The death toll (of all related
deaths) was about 135,000.
• More than 40% of the city was
destroyed.
• 75.000 instantaneous deaths,
50,000 explosion injured.
• Total deaths by the end of 1945
may have reached 80,000.
• The radius of total destruction was
about 1 mile (1.6 km), followed by
fires across the northern portion of
the city to 2 miles (3.2 km) south
of the bomb.

• On Sept. 2, 1945,
Japanese Foreign
Minister Shigenori
formally signed the
surrender documents on
board the USS Missouri.

Involvement Of
Einstein• In 1905 Albert Einstein discovered
that a large amount of energy
could be released from a small
amount of matter.
• However Bombs were not in his
mind because even he considered
himself a pacifist.
• The first letter Einstein stated the
Germany is pursuing the interest
of an A bomb and we should do
the same.
• Einstein felt very guilty for what he
caused after he saw the
destruction of Hiroshima and
Nagasaki.
Albert Einstein
In the course of the last four months it has been made probable - through the
work of Joliot in France as well as Fermi and Szilard in America - that it may
become possible to set up a nuclear chain reaction in a large mass of
uranium, by which vast amounts of power and large quantities of new
radium-like elements would be generated. Now it appears almost certain
that this could be achieved in the immediate future.
This new phenomenon would also lead to the construction of bombs, and it
is conceivable - though much less certain - that extremely powerful bombs
of a new type may thus be constructed. A single bomb of this type, carried
by boat and exploded in a port, might very well destroy the whole port
together with some of the surrounding territory. However, such bombs
might very well prove to be too heavy for transportation by air...
Yours very truly,
(Albert Einstein)

  • 10. ‘Little Boy’ before loading to B-29 bomber ‘Enola Gay’ • ‘Little boy’ was one of the first kind of nuclear weapons that the world had seen. • ‘Little boy was a Gun-type fission bomb or a non nuclear explosive blasts a uranium wedge down a gun barrel into a uranium target causing the fission reaction. • Fission occurs when the nucleus of an atom is split. When it happens, gamma rays are emitted. If fission occurs, high amounts of energy in the form of radiation are released. More About Little Boy…
  • 11. The Bomb Day… • At 8.15 am, the Bomb The Bomb was fused and set to explode about 2000 ft. above the center of the town. • It took 43 sec to reach its designated altitude. • It had a blast that was equivalent to 13 kilotons of TNT. • The radius of total destruction was about one mile (1.6 km), with resulting fires across 4.4 square miles (11 km2 ).

  • 23. • Three days later on August 9, 1945, the second atomic bomb named “Fat Man” was dropped on Nagasaki. • The Fat Man weapon, containing a core of about 6.4 kilograms (14 lb.) of plutonium, was dropped over the city's industrial valley. • It exploded 43 seconds later at 469 m(1,539 ft.) above the ground. This was nearly 3 km (1.9 mi) northwest of the planned hypocenter. • The resulting explosion had a blast yield equivalent to 21 kilotons of TNT (88 TJ). Next Target..
  • 24. • Bockscar a B-29 bomber Superfortress, flown by Major Charles W. Sweeney dropped the “Fat Man” on August 9, 1945. • Sometimes called Bock’s car. • The Bockscar did didn't have enough fuel to return to Tinian or Iwo Jima, so Major Sweeney flew the aircraft to Okinawa for an emergency landing with practically dry fuel tanks. Next Target.. Bockscar With its crew
  • 25. Immediate Aftermath.. • The death toll (of all related deaths) was about 135,000. • More than 40% of the city was destroyed. • 75.000 instantaneous deaths, 50,000 explosion injured. • Total deaths by the end of 1945 may have reached 80,000. • The radius of total destruction was about 1 mile (1.6 km), followed by fires across the northern portion of the city to 2 miles (3.2 km) south of the bomb.

  • 30. Involvement Of Einstein• In 1905 Albert Einstein discovered that a large amount of energy could be released from a small amount of matter. • However Bombs were not in his mind because even he considered himself a pacifist. • The first letter Einstein stated the Germany is pursuing the interest of an A bomb and we should do the same. • Einstein felt very guilty for what he caused after he saw the destruction of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

  • 31. In the course of the last four months it has been made probable - through the work of Joliot in France as well as Fermi and Szilard in America - that it may become possible to set up a nuclear chain reaction in a large mass of uranium, by which vast amounts of power and large quantities of new radium-like elements would be generated. Now it appears almost certain that this could be achieved in the immediate future. This new phenomenon would also lead to the construction of bombs, and it is conceivable - though much less certain - that extremely powerful bombs of a new type may thus be constructed. A single bomb of this type, carried by boat and exploded in a port, might very well destroy the whole port together with some of the surrounding territory. However, such bombs might very well prove to be too heavy for transportation by air...
