Option B, "The mill relied on steam as a power source" is not true of the textile mill founded by Francis Cabot Lowell.

<u>Explanation: </u>

The American businessman Francis Cabot Lowell is named for in Lowell, Massachusetts. In only six years, He established an American textile industry. He was successful in bringing the industrialisation into the United States.

Born in 1775 in Newburyport, Massachusetts, he had become a successful trader. He was impressed by British textile mills when he was 36 years old on his trip to England.

Another invention of Lowell was the work of young farm women in the mill. He compensated them less than men, but he offered opportunities that were willing to attract most women, some as young as 15.

Mill girls stayed in tidy business boarding houses with chaperones, paid in cash for them and took advantage of religiosity and schooling. Waltham boomed as Lowell's new enterprise was flown by workers.

Which ancient principles can be found in American government today?
Softa [21]

Answer:

From Greece-the principles of democracy have been brought into the US government from Greece. Greek democracy was limited as it was in the founding of the US. Only elite, men were allowed the rights of citizens in both governments. 

From the Byzantine Empire-the principles of law and order came from Justinian's Code. The law code set high level law principles with each law corresponding to a punishment. The codes also set judicial principles used by the US when setting up their judicial branch of government. 

From Rome-representative government was used where members of the empire were elected or chosen to represent larger populations. In Rome, this ensured the reaches of the empire were heard and in the US representation has been used to ensure the voices of states and the people are heard in at the federal level.

padilas [110]

The federal legislature or congress can repeal the state laws under the necessary and proper clause in order to impose federal laws necessary to provide general welfare and common defense of the nation because they have the authority to do so. This authority was given to them because the people believed that the congress would decide for the common good.

Moreover, only the federal legislature has the right to contract debts, lay taxes and if they believed that a state law may prevent the collection of a federal tax, then they can repeal state laws making sure that it is for the benefit of the United States.
