The Manhattan Project was a secret military project created in 1942 to produce the first US nuclear weapon. It was originally a race against the Germans to be the first to make a bomb. 
Eventually, though, Japan was not surrendering in WW2. Japan's system of dying for their country being extremely honorable and having to take part in the war or facing serious consequences made it hard for the US to defeat them. Harry S. Truman ordered this bomb to bring the war to a speedy end. The result was the five-ton bomb over the Japenese city of Hiroshima and eventually Nagasaki. 
Other solutions would've been to invade, but Truman must've seen it as losing American lives too and that this was the best way to end the war. We also could've waited before dropping the second bomb on Nagasaki because we heard no news from Japan, but that was just in two days. It was very quick to rush for so many lives. 

I hoped this helped! This is what I learned from my teachers but here is a link to more solutions regarding the atomic bomb:

How did Adolf Hitler violate the Treaty of Versailles?
nignag [31]
He reoccupied the Rhineland (demilitarized zone), he also rebuilt his army and his air-force but that was around the time when the disarmament conference failed so he used that as his excuse to rearm (other countries were doing the same). 

<span>I think this was in 1939 but he also had a political union with Austria which he wasn't allowed to do. </span>

<span>The allies did not do anything to prevent him from breaking the terms of the treaty as many people saw that it was too harsh on the germans so there was no point in protecting it.

</span>This was not copied from a website or someone else.

Which statements describe outcomes of the Hundred Years' War? Choose four correct answers.
nignag [31]
I go this online so read it and get your answer. Hundred Years’ War, intermittent struggle between England and France in the 14th–15th century over a series of disputes, including the question of the legitimate succession to the French crown. The struggle involved several generations of English and French claimants to the crown and actually occupied a period of more than 100 years. By convention the war is said to have started on May 24, 1337, with the confiscation of the English-held duchy of Guyenne by French King Philip VI. This confiscation, however, had been preceded by periodic fighting over the question of English fiefs in France going back to the 12th century.
