The mechanical reaper significantly increased agricultural productivity by allowing farmers to harvest crops more quickly and efficiently. However, this innovation also led to overproduction, resulting in falling crop prices that hurt many small-scale farmers. As larger agricultural operations capitalized on the increased efficiency, many smaller farmers struggled to compete, leading to a decline in their livelihoods and contributing to the consolidation of farmland into fewer hands. Ultimately, this shift undermined the economic stability of rural communities and contributed to the decline of the independent farmer.

What was 2 inventions that caused a major change in American history?

There are probably about a 1000 inventions that fall into this class- but I would nominate 2- the McCormich reaper, and the automobile. The reaper allowed mechanized harvesting of grain. Now one farmer could grow the grain that it had taken 20 farmers to grow- which meant that 19 farmers could do other things for a living, and that grain was cheaper to grow. The automobile- and the truck and tractor- increased travel, and the movement of goods from one place to another. Prior to that, unless you traveled by train or ship, you were limited to about 20 miles per day.

Is it conservation of mechanical energy when skydivers drop in the air at a constant rate and why?

No. In free fall, where mechanical energy is conserved, the falling object would go faster and faster. In this case, to fall at a constant speed, mechanical energy is lost, due to friction.
