99 points question on august 6 1945 during world war ii an american bomber dropped an atomic bomb over the japanese city of hiroshima. the hiroshima atomic bomb was approximately 9.84 feet in length with a diameter of 28 inches ,yet it wiped out 90 percent of the city of hiroshima and killed 80,00 people. explain.

The way the bomb was created and the way it was dropped.

The chemicals inside of it would create a chain reaction that creates a huge, nuclear explosion. I don't know the specifics of what was inside the bombs but it had a lot to do with nuclear energy.

And the way it fell/detonated.

Instead of letting he bomb detonate by contact with the ground. It exploded like 20 feet or something in the air. Hitting the ground would create an explosion that goes up, but detonating in the air means it goes everywhere.

I will attache a file so you can see what I mean.

Hope this helps.
