Answer 1

The first Hydrogen bomb was developed 1952 not 1954. A nuclear bombed armed Russia would be the biggest threat to the USA and the USSR developed theirs in 1949. Answer is B

Answer 2

The correct answer is B) the explosion of a Soviet atomic weapon.

The development of the Hydrogen Bomb of 1954 was most likely a product of the explosion of a Soviet atomic weapon.

The Soviet Union government denotated a nuclear bomb in 1949. That was a successful action in the armament strategy for Russia. So the reaction of the United States government was that President Harry S. Truman ordered the development of a hydrogen bomb  On November 1, 1952, the United States Army detonated the first hydrogen bomb in the Marshall Islands in the North Pacific Ocean. That bomb destroyed the island of Elugelab.
