□ icbms were developed

Explanation:

1. World tensions increased: The arms race, particularly between superpowers, fueled mutual distrust and geopolitical friction, raising global tensions.
2. More destructive weapons were created: The core of the arms race was the development and stockpiling of increasingly powerful weapons, including nuclear arms.
3. Nuclear energy was developed as a power source: Research into nuclear fission for weapons led to the adaptation of this technology for civilian energy production.
4. ICBMs were developed: Intercontinental Ballistic Missiles were a key advanced weapons system developed during the nuclear arms race to deliver warheads across long distances.

The remaining options are incorrect: The arms race caused widespread fear (not confidence in the future), and European unity was driven by post-war integration efforts unrelated to the arms race.

Answer:

• World tensions increased
• More destructive weapons were created
• Nuclear energy was developed as a power source
• ICBMs were developed
