Detailed explanation-1: -The Industrial Revolution, the period in which agrarian and handicraft economies shifted rapidly to industrial and machine-manufacturing-dominated ones, began in the United Kingdom in the 18th century and later spread throughout many other parts of the world.
Detailed explanation-2: -Instead of utilizing artisans to produce hand-made items, machines started to help and eventually take the place of the artisans. Machinery during the Industrial Revolution such as the spinning wheel to produce textiles, the water wheel used to power machinery and the steam engine were invented.
Detailed explanation-3: -The Industrial Revolution shifted from an agrarian economy to a manufacturing economy where products were no longer made solely by hand but by machines. This led to increased production and efficiency, lower prices, more goods, improved wages, and migration from rural areas to urban areas.
Detailed explanation-4: -By reducing labor costs, such machines not only reduced manufacturing costs but lowered prices manufacturers charged consumers. In short, machine production created a growing abundance of products at cheaper prices. Mechanization also had less desirable effects. For one, machines changed the way people worked.
Detailed explanation-5: -Mass production is the production of machinery and other articles in standard sizes in large numbers. Mass production makes it possible to manufacture things faster, and often at less cost. It also means that a replacement can be obtained for any part of a manufacturing machine or other product that breaks down.
