Steam powered boats are different than sailboats because steamboats were faster

Sail boats got their power from the wind, so if you went sailing on a day with little wind, you would have a hard time sailing. On the other hand, steam-powered ships had boilers and the steam that evaporated powered the ship. Steam-powered vessels were faster than sail boats, but they were also more dangerous because the boilers were at risk of blowing up.

Which of the following was the purpose of the formation of labor unions?​
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

To get workers rights and safety.

Explanation:

I don't see a list of answers, but this is something I'm learning about right now.  The purpose of the formation of labor unions was mainly to increase the safety of the laborers.  A lot of factories were built cheaply, so safety wasn't a prime concern for the owners.  It was really all about the money for them.  So the correct answer would be somewhere along the lines of to get laborers rights and safety.  Hope this helped!
