Answer:The name Hiroshima is so tied to the atomic bomb that it's hard to imagine there were other possible targets.
But in early 1945, the U.S. was still months away from building its first bomb and certainly didn't know what to hit.
"Should it be a city? Should it be a military installation? Should you be just displaying the bomb, without killing anybody?" These are questions that were yet to be decided, says Alex Wellerstein, a historian at the Stevens Institute of Technology.
Wellerstein has devoted his career to studying nuclear weapons and the decision to use them. He says that in the spring of 1945, the military convened a target committee, a mix of officers and scientists, to decide where the bomb should fall.
The minutes of this committee were declassified years ago — and they show it considered some far less deadly targets. The initial list included a remote military installation and Tokyo Bay, where the bomb would have been detonated as a demonstration.
But the target committee decided those options wouldn't show the world the power of the new bomb."They want people to understand that this is something different, and so picking a place that will showcase how different it is, is very important," Wellerstein says."They want people to understand that this is something different, and so picking a place that will showcase how different it is, is very important," Wellerstein says."They want people to understand that this is something different, and so picking a place that will showcase how different it is, is very important," Wellerstein says.

Once you have viewed the presentation write a page paper on the differences and
sinlarities between the American colonies in the north middle and south inelude Speelfie
information about people places and things.
Answer:
During the 16th and 17th centuries, many Europeans were moving to the Americas. They came for different reasons to the new colonies. The Puritans in the north were setting up a new religious government. The middle colonies were a mix of many different peoples and cultures. Many were settling in the south to establish plantations and make money on agriculture.
Pre-revolutionary America was a very diverse place. The most diverse places were the middle colonies of Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey, and Delaware. More different ethnic groups lived in closer proximity than in any other place in Europe. The middle colonies had many Native American tribes and African slaves during the early years. Unlike New England with the Puritans, the middle colonies had a variety of religions. Quakers, Mennonites, Lutherans, Dutch Calvinists and Presbyterians made the presence of one faith impossible.
The largest cities in America were New York and Philadelphia. These cities had culture and gave rise to such notable thinkers as Benjamin Franklin, who earned his respect in America and Europe. The middle colonies were a hodgepodge of people and served as a cultural thinking spot. The middle colonies also had fertile soil. Land was easily acquired. The wheat and corn from these areas would feed the American colonies through the Revolutionary War. The middle colonies also maintained the middle ground between the north and the south. Elements from both towns and large estates could be found. These were the perfect nucleus for English America.
Virginia was the first successful southern colony. While Puritan enthusiasm was fueling New England's commercial development, and Penn's Quaker experiment was turning the middle colonies into America's bread basket, the South was turning to cash crops. Geography and motive made these colonies different from the others.
Directly to Virginia's north was Maryland. Maryland’s colonial economy would soon come to reflect that of Virginia as tobacco became the most important crop. To the south lay the Carolinas. In the Deep South was Georgia, the last of the original thirteen colonies. English American southerners would not enjoy the commonly good health of their New England counterparts. Outbreaks of malaria and yellow fever made life expectancies lower. Since the northern colonies attracted religious refugees, they tended to bring families in. Such family connections were less prevalent in the south.

what was the cotton gin how didi it help people and how didi it not help people?.
Answer: While it was true that the cotton gin reduced the labor of removing seeds, it did not reduce the need for slaves to grow and pick the cotton. In fact, the opposite occurred. Cotton growing became so profitable for the planters that it greatly increased their demand for both land and slave labor
Explanation:
Answer:
Although the cotton gin made cotton processing less labor-intensive, it helped planters earn greater profits, prompting them to grow larger crops, which in turn required more people. Because slavery was the cheapest form of labor, cotton farmers simply acquired more slaves
