The leap in technology from a horse drawn cart, or water wheel, to a steam engine (train on tracks or fixed bed in a factory) was huge, and provided the means for the Industrial Revolution to take off.
In 1765, James Watt made improvements to the Newcomen engine, which was inefficient but the best steam engine of its time.
if we didn't have steam engines along time ago we would have had no transport
two words it hasn't
the steam engine was using the transcontinental railroad, which went all the way across the U.S. people could then travel across the country in a matter of days, rather than months. also, supplies reached areas a lot faster which allowed more time to make technology and art.
The steam engine changed history by the way people worked. It also allowed people to have faster transportation. Supplies could also be sent to places quicker, allowing people to have more time to make clothing and art.
From the start of time, about 13.8 billion years.
Steam engine advantages Any suitable form of energy can be used to make steam Not affected much by high altitudes Water can be re-used Steam engine disadvantages Has low efficiency, around 30% Are expensive to buy and run Give off a lot of pollution Take time to start Dangerous to use because of high pressure of steam Only 30% of the steam is used Lots of energy is needed to make the steam
it has change alot because now we dont have to use our arms
the steam engine was invented during this time and the crayon and chcocolate chips and last the steam ship there you go
Passengers, grain, livestock, coal, cotton, wool, the list goes on and on. In the time of the steam engine anything from that era would have been transported.
Though not the original inventor, James Watt is often cited as the person that developed a useful and efficient steam engine. The requirements were needed at the time of the Industrial Revolution to power the new machines in factories and for transport.
Technology changes. Individual and collective needs change.
