WORLD HISTORY

Detailed explanation-1: -But, the invention of Watt’s rotary steam engine changed everything. Textile factories no longer had to be built right next to a river. However large buildings were required for the new large steam engines, spinning mules, and power looms.

Detailed explanation-2: -The steam engines were being used to run machines in factories instead of water power. Now factories could be built farther away from water sources. A steam engine could be built to be used anywhere. As time passed, more and more people left farms to work in factories that were located in cities.

Detailed explanation-3: -Rapid industrialisation first began in Britain, starting with mechanized textiles spinning in the 1780s, with high rates of growth in steam power and iron production occurring after 1800.

Detailed explanation-4: -People found an extra source of energy with an incredible capacity for work. That source was fossil fuels-coal, oil, and natural gas, though coal led the way-formed underground from the remains of plants and animals from much earlier geologic times.

Detailed explanation-5: -The Watt steam engine had drastically improved the efficiency of the Newcomen engine. This caused the demand of coal to go up. Due to the introduction of the steam engine and Britain’s coal deposits, the steam engine allowed the industry to flourish as Britain quickly industrialized before anyone else.
