What were the most likely reasons that US leaders decided to develop the atomic bomb? Select two options.

kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

They believed that defeating Japan with regular weapons would be too costly in time and lives.

They wanted to be viewed by other nations as the most powerful nation in the world.

Explanation:

The U.S. leaders decided to develop atomic weapons as a response to the threat from the Nazis in Germany who were said to have been developing such kinds of weapon. However, under Harry Truman as the President, the U.S. actually dropped the bomb over Japan twice in order to defeat them in a speedy manner. This was also done in order to prevent having many American casualties if they ever invaded.

It is also said that they developed the atomic bomb during the "Cold War." An "arm race" happened whereby nations, especially the U.S. and the Soviet Union, tried to become more superior over the other by developing the best military weapons. When the Soviet tested their atomic bomb, the U.S. also announced that they'd be making an even better atomic bomb. This situation clearly showed how the Americans wanted to be viewed as the most powerful nation in the world.

Why was joining the WTO such a major step for China? a. A few decades ago, China would not send representatives abroad b. A few

Ivenika [448]

Answer:

d. A few decades ago, China would not allow outsiders to see what it was doing.

Explanation:

Prior to joining the World Trade Organization (WTO), China wasn't open about it's economic activities or policy to other countries across the world. This simply means the Chinese government was very secretive about the happening in it's country and as such would not allow outsiders to see what it was doing or it's engagements.

However, joining the World Trade Organization (WTO) made them to be more open to other countries, which was a key factor for their unprecedented economic growth and development.

Hence, China was able to trade globally, capturing many markets and attracting foreign investment which boosted it's economy greatly.

Furthermore, China joining the WTO was at the detriment of the Western World (USA, Canada, UK, Germany etc) as it resulted in the loss of millions of jobs.
