What made possible by the American industrial growth of the late 1800s?

Answer 1

Haha.

Answer 2

increase of imoprt....Apex

Increased number of immigants wanted to help the environmental destruction caused by frequent superstitious cannibals

Noo. It's the technological advances. Such as, the telegraph, the telephone, The Transcontinental Railroad, etc.

Answer 3

The steam engine and the cotton gin were huge factors in the start of the industrial revolution. Then the concept of using interchangeable parts caught on in factories, as well as the construction of the railway and its ability to easier transport people and goods to and from more remote locations.
the Bessemer process

Answer 4

Period marking the introduction of mass production, improved transportation, technological progress, and the industrial factory system. In the United States this period is generally agreed to have begun at the time of the Civil War (1861-1865).

There were several technological advances that allowed industrialization to flourish. Some of these included new machinery while other advances were simply ways to transport the products created by the machinery. A first breakthrough occurred in 1709 when Abraham Darby discovered that coke (coal from which the impurities have been cooked out) could be used in place of charcoal. The resulting metal was lower quality than iron but much cheaper to produce. Henry Cort found a way to remove some of the impurities in coke-iron by puddling-stirring the molten iron with long rods. Cort's process made I possible to turn high-sulfur English coal into coke to produce wrought iron very cheaply. By 1790, four-fifths of Britain's iron was made with coke, while other countries still used charcoal. It allowed a great expansion of individual blast furnaces which substantially reduced the cost of iron. Beginning in the 1760's a series of inventions revolutions the spinning of cotton thread. The first was the spinning jenny, invented in 1764. The spinning jenny mechanically drew out the cotton fibers and twisted them into thread. In 1796 Richard Arkwright invented another spinning machine, the water frame, which produced thread strong enough to be used without linen. In 1785 Samuel Crompton patented a machine that combined the best features of the jenny and the water frame. This device, called a mule, produced a strong thread that was thing enough to be used to make a better type of cotton called muslin. In 1793 the American Eli Whitney patened his cotton a gin, a simple device that separated the bolls or seedpods from the fiber and made cotton growing more economical. Another great invention was the steam engine. It was the first machine to transform fossil fuel into mechanical energy. The steam engine is what set the industrial revolution apart from previous periods of growth and innovation. Thomas Newcomen developed the first practical steam engine, but this particular model still had much room for development. James Watt, realized that the engine wasted fuel because the cylinder had to be alternately heated and cooled. He developed a separate condenser, leaving the cylinder always hot and the condenser was always cold. These developments also inspired the idea for the steam engine on boats and railroads which allowed them to travel greater distances with making fewer fuel stops. The first practical electric telegraph systems were developed almost simultaneously in England and America. In 1837 in England Charles Wheatsone and William Cooke introduce a five-wire telegraph that remained in use until the early 20th century. That same year, the American Samuel Morse introduced a code of dots and dashes that could be transmitted with a single wire; in 1843 he erected a telegraph line between Washington and Baltimore. By the late 1840's telegraph wires were being strung throughout the eastern United States and Western Europe. In 1851 the first submarine telegraph cable was laid across the English Channel from England to France; it was the beginning of a network that eventually connected the entire globe.
