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:

American militia fighting on their own soil was arguably the largest technical factor in them winning the war. Americans knew the land they fought on, and therefore knew the best routes to take for supplies, troop movements, and where the British may have been hiding. American militias hired <em>frontiersmen</em>, men who had grown up in the woods and knew how to hunt and travel in them, to fight on their side of the war. This allowed for a huge advantage over the British in the ground battles of the war.

Americans also had something that the British did not: patriotism. The Americans knew that, if they did not win the war, they would have to go back to living under the unfair British rule, if they did not die that is. Americans were able to use this spirit to fight their war harder than the British did.

Americans did not fight England's war. They disregarded the European ideas of a gentleman's war and fought, as the British considered them, dirty. The Americans shot and killed commanding officers, shot and killed their horses, attacked at night and during meal and tea times, and other war strategies that went against how the British had been taught to fight their whole life. This gave Americans a large edge over the British in individual battles.
