The statements which are consequences are:

A. Machines could work at rates faster than human power ever allowed.  

E. It turned the wooded areas of Britain into great centers of industry.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The engine was used to pump water from mines. With the improvements made by James Watt in 1778, steam power immediately took off. The Watt steam engine dramatically improved the efficiency of the steam engines. His engines might be smaller, with much less coal being used.

The steam engine was integrated into the machinery and made the first true industrial machinery by eliminating wooded areas. Becoming able to provide movement and control by steam innovated the work of several industries, enabling them to avoid using the hectic time taken by manpower, which also created problems.

This revolution helped develop the economy as it improved trade among different cities through the shipment of grains and cattle by railroad.
