Labor unions were formed in the late 1880s, after they were formed, factory life changed dramatically.

History
1 answer:
kicyunya [14]3 years ago
8 0

Part A: Working hours changed from around 14 hours a day before the 1880's to being reduced slowly down to 12, then 10, eventually moving to an 8 hour day. This change allowed for workers to to have more time to sleep and for leisure. Another change was the end of child labor. Similar to the decrease in hours, the minimum age increased over time as well moving from 10 to 16.

Part B: One strategy used by unions to achieve these goals were strikes. Workers would leave the job and picket outside of a job which shut down operations. This tactic did not work at first because there were plenty of workers to fill the jobs. However, when immigration slowed the tactic had more impact with no people to fill the jobs. Some strikes were so large they brought the attention of police forces and the government.

How can technology improve geographical representations
Papessa [141]

Technology has totally changed the way maps are made and geographical areas are represented, both regarding the calculation methods and the materials and technology used (nowadays we use databases instead of paper)

In times past, geographers had to rely on anachronistic tools to create maps. Therefore, the accuracy of their calculations was often very poor. Observation and information collected from travelers, sailors and merchants was usually the most common way to create maps, in the absence of more reliable sources. Nowadays, computerized mapping and satellites make it a lot easier to map and represent large geographical areas. In conclusion, the advance of technology has been fundamental for the creation of better and more accurate maps.

Which symbols on the great seal represent God and His protection of the United States? the pyramid's three sides the eye above t
Westkost [7]

Answer and Explanation:

On the great seal, the symbol that represents God and His protection/guidance of the United States, is the golden light breaking through white cloud; it is also known as “glory”. The symbol of the ring of golden light rays that breaks through a white cloud, like some other symbols on the coat of arms, seems to be an inspired symbol of divine protection which the founding fathers drew from God's guidance of the biblical Israelites by using a "pillar of fire".
