- 2. WHAT IS INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION ➢ A revolution started with coal,iron and textiles in 1700s ➢ Major changes in agriculture,manufacturing ,mining ,transport and technology had a profound effect on the socioeconomic and cultural conditions ➢ The industrial Revolution was a period from the 18th to the 19th century 2 ➢ Took place in Britain ,then spreading throughout Europe,North America and eventually the world
- 3. PEOPLE LIVED IN FEAR THAT THE CROPS THEY GREW MIGHT FAIL WHY DID INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION START? THREE MOST IMPORTANT CAUSES OF INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION WERE -dependency on technology -impact of education -protestant reformation I. 3 MACHINES WERE INTRODUCED NATURAL RESOURCES LIKE COAL,IRON ORE,AND DEVELOPED FARMLANDS 1 2 3 4
- 4. ➢ New inventions and technologies played an important role ➢ It changes the way things were powered,how good were manufactured,how people communicated and the way goods were transported ➢ In the early part,natural power sources such as water and wind were used as power ➢ Then,new power technologies such as a steam power and electricity played a major role in allowing the industrial Revolution to grow 4
- 5. ❑Steam power was fuelled by coal,utilization of water wheels and powered machinary ❑In 1781,James Watt invented a new type of steam engine that could be used to power machines in factories ❑In 1800s,steam engines grew bigger and more powerful ❑They were used to not only power factories but also in transportation to power steamboats and trains 5
- 7. AGRICULTURAL SECTOR o Agricultural Revolution began in the early 1700s with an Englishman o Crop yields per acre were increased by new knowledges about what techniques would allow plants to grow and new agricultural techniques o Fertilizers,minerals and soil content were all factors that started to be taken into account.New tools and processes were developed. 7
- 8. ▪ One of the first successful steamboats was developed by Robert Fulton in 1807 ▪ Steamboats were soon used to carry goods and passengers along rivers throughout the United States. TRANSpORT SECTOR ▪ The steam locomotive was invented in the early 1800s ▪ Trains became one of the most important modes of transportation during the Industrial Revolution 8
- 9. COMMUNICATION SECTOR It began with the invention of the electrical telegraph by Samuel Morsein 1844 This system allowed for messages to be transmitted much quicker and cheaper than old methods In 1876,Alexander Graham Bell invented the telephone which changed the way people communicated forever 9
