Steam power  originally developed slowly over a period of several hundred years until it reached to actual practical application at the beginning of the industrial  revolution. The steam engine was one of the most important technologies of the industrial revolution. It was a simple device that used boiling water to create mechanical motion to be utilized in useful work.

Early mills used water power to operate and had to be located near running water such as a river which would freeze in winter and the water was not available, also in dry spells. Flooding would also stop operations.  But by using a steam engine, a factory could be located anywhere and could operate the whole year round.

From mines to mills, steam engines found many applications in a variety of industries, improving productivity and technology such as Trevithick's high pressure engine that revolutionized transport. Steam engines found their way to boats, railways, farms and road vehicles.

Which type of child abuse is most prevalent in the United States?
777dan777 [17]

The correct answer is B. Neglect

Explanation:

The term "child abuse" refers to any action or behavior that leads to child maltreatment in any way including psychological, psychical, sexual abuse and neglect. Additionally, child abuse is commonly linked to the context as in some cases there are cultural elements that promote it or prevent it as well as laws that act against child abuse and that also determine the type of child abuse that prevails more in a country. In the case of the United States, the type of child abuse that prevails is neglect as research indicate around a 78% percent of the children that suffer from child abuse experience neglect rather than physical, psychological or sexual abuse that are only part of lower percentages which means programs and laws to stop child abuse should be addressed to neglect. Therefore, the type of child abuse that is most prevalent in the United States is Neglect.
