About 15 minutes or less, as the missiles were ICBM's (intercontinental ballistic missiles) and had/has massive power behind it's impact and launch, essentially devastating the targeted area within minutes from launch. Also is the main reason why the U.S. feared having the missiles in Cuba, and why they fear North Korea having the missiles. Remember to check yourself.
Hope this helps :)

melomori [17]
Well, fear is created when there is a threat. WW2 Had just ended, so of course America did not want any other nation to become more powerful than them, for the idea that it would end up being like Germany. Americans also wanted to protect democracy, so communism was a major threat to the USA and it's beliefs. Naturally, America wanted to prove dominance to the USSR, thus the beginning of the cold war.

Prior to dropping the bombs the United States brought Japan close to defeat by
Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

The revisionists argue that Japan was already ready to surrender before the atomic bombs. ... The sticking point for the Japanese was retaining the emperor in his position. It is unclear if they would have accepted the reduction of the emperor to a figurehead, as eventually happened after the war.The radiation in Hiroshima and Nagasaki today is on a par with the extremely low levels of background radiation (natural radioactivity) present anywhere on Earth. It has no effect on human bodies.The article contains graphic images and details some people may find upsetting. The recorded death tolls are estimates, but it is thought that about 140,000 of Hiroshima's 350,000 population were killed in the blast, and that at least 74,000 people died in Nagasaki.

4, now covered by the New Safe Confinement, is estimated to remain highly radioactive for up to 20,000 years. Some also predict that the current confinement facility might have to be replaced again within 30 years, depending on conditions, as many believe the area cannot be truly cleaned, but only contained.
