Answer:  The correct answer is :  The power of the workers was demonstrated as follows: workers have a lot of popular support, workers from different industries were willing to work together, workers had so much power that they could stop and even stop the economy, the workers were determined to oppose government forces even if it is with violence.

Everything originated because the railways announced salary cuts, the company did not accept the demands of the workers, so they decided to prevent the railroad from functioning until the salary decision was changed.

Why did Whitney consider standardized parts
Mnenie [13.5K]

During the Industrial Revolution of the 19th century, machines took over most of the manufacturing work from men, and factories replaced craftsmen’s workshops. The event that laid the groundwork for this monumental change was the introduction of interchangeable parts, or pre-manufactured parts that were for all practical purposes identical, into the firearms industry. Interchangeable parts, popularized in America when Eli Whitney used them to assemble muskets in the first years of the 19th century, allowed relatively unskilled workers to produce large numbers of weapons quickly and at lower cost, and made repair and replacement of parts infinitely easier.
