The initial effects of the atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki were (A) there was heavy damage only within a mile of t
he bomb's impact (B) the entire city was razed to the ground and nothing left standing (C) there was a cloud of fallout that spread far and wide beyond Japan (D) there was destruction of the centers and only a few structures left standing Hi I'm really suck between (A) and (D) any help would be greatly appreciated!
It's not A because the damage reached far wider than within a mile of the bomb's impact. Think of the massive mushroom cloud, which touched far more than its surrounding mile.
The correct answer is option (D) "there was destruction of the centers and only a few structures left standing". The atomic bombs dropped in Hiroshima and Nagasaki had devastating effects on the people and the buildings in Japan. The initial effects included the destruction of the centers among the 13 square kilometres of the blast, resulting in only few structures left standing.
