How did James watt contribute to the industrial revolution
bulgar [2K]

Watt aided the Industrial Revolution even more when he discovered a way to make a steam engine turn in circles. This made it possible to use steam engines for purposes other than pumping water out of coal mines. As a result, Watt aided the Industrial Revolution by making steam power far more useful for driving machinery.

In clearer terms, James Watt aided the Industrial Revolution by improving the Newcomen steam engine, resulting in a new, more efficient engine.

Hope this helps and if it does, don't be afraid to give my answer a "Thanks" and maybe a Brainliest if it's correct?

Sergeeva-Olga [200]
Some of the events leading up to the Boston Massacre are noted below.
