A Correct answer
Explanation

The atomic bomb dropped on Nagasaki on August 9, 1945, was codenamed 'Fat Man.' This was the second atomic bomb used in warfare. The first bomb, dropped on Hiroshima three days earlier, was codenamed 'Little Boy.' 'Thin Man' was an earlier plutonium gun design that was abandoned, and 'Big Man' was never an actual bomb designation.
