History

The growth of railroads during the late 1800s create a boom for the steel industry  becuase Steel rails were much more durable than the iron rails that had been in use.

Option B

<u>Explanation</u>:

In the beginning of the year 1800 the railroad construction in the US increase at a exponential rate. And, in around 1860s the "congress" passed "pacific railroad act". This act authorizes construction of transcontinental railroad. This gives a boost to the railway construction and by 1900 four additional transcontinental railroads are made which connects the eastern states with the Pacific Coast. This turns out to be a boon for the steel industry. As, the railroads were the biggest customer of the steel industry. The steel industry used "cheap and efficient methods" for the mass production of steel rails in order to meet the requirements of the railroads.

That's quite a lot of questions for one Brainly post!  I won't aim to respond to each of those individual questions, but to the questions as a set.

All four thinkers referenced -- Hobbes, Locke, Montesquieu and Wollstonecraft -- were aiming to use reason and evidence to analyze issues in society and suggest solutions. 

Hobbes, observing what he saw as the natural suspicion and competition human beings have of one another, suggested that establishing strong governmental authority is the only way to ensure stability and security for us to live together in society.

Locke had a more favorable view of human nature, and believed that if we acted reasonably we could together construct societies in which we respected one another's rights and worked to improve our mutual condition as a majority-governed body politic.

Montesquieu used his reason to research and analyze governments and set forth what governments he saw working best in which situations.  The idea of "checks and balances" that we have in our American system was something he proposed (as the quoted text indicated).

Wollstonecraft applied principles of reason to the role of women and the rights for girls to be educated for active participation in society and civic life.
