The use of atomic bombs lead to a quicker end to World War 2.

After Germany was defeated, the full attention of the Allies was turned on Japan. U.S strategist estimated and calculated that if an invasion of Japan was done, there would be a large waves of attacks of suicide civilians who would fight to the death that could potential cost 1-2 million Ally soldier lives.The U.S decided to find another way and they had the means to. So the U.S gave a message to Japan to surrender but they refused.

So on August 6th, 1945. Harry Trueman gave the word to unleash and use the top secret Manhattan project (development of nuclear bombs). On that day, the airplane, named Enola Gay, dropped the first atomic bomb ever used in war on the Japanese city of Hiroshima.

Three days later, on August 9th, another bomb was dropped on the Japanese city Nagasaki. Within a month, Japan surrendered unconditionally with the acception of allowing the Emperor to continue as emperor.

Note: This hits deep into my family. My grandpa was living in Hiroshima as a U.S citizen but he somehow through a feeling or some higher being got weak/sick and heard a voice to go to a recovery center on another island. But when he did, later that day/next day, the bomb fell and he escaped from the bomb. Although he lost everything he knew in Japan...

Alfred Wegener was a German meteorologist and scientist who in the early 20th century, proposed the theory of "continental drift", which states that the continents used to be joint and they have been drifting away from one another.

His theory was rejected by the scientific community, because although it is based on findings of both plants and animal species in matching sides of different continents, it lacks an explanation regarding what forces, make the continents drift.

Which issue was at the heart of one of the compromises made between northern and southern states during the Constitutional Conve
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

Counting slaves in the population.

Explanation:

The weakness of the national government to not able tax, could not implement the laws it passed, and could not control trade lead to the revision of Article of Confederation. Such and other shortcomings, along with a rise in national opinion, led to the Constitutional Convention, which convened from May to September 1787. Representatives from southern states wanted slaves to be counted in terms of representation, however, northern states felt that slaves ought not to be counted towards representation because counting them would provide more representatives for the South. The negotiation between the two sides came to be known as the compromise of three-fifths because in terms of representation every five slaves would be counted as three individuals.
