Answer: During the growth of the railroad system, Americans did begin to measure time using time zones, since after the 1820´s the industrial revolution had begun and the creation of more jobs and a more labor-based industry that needed more technical, machine based manufacturing. And derived from that, came a new time measure, which meant production efficiency increased, which led the way to economic growth.  

In fact, after a single clock was added to the trains, passengers´ security increased because they were able to get from point A to point B in the time needed. Rail companies did begin to create their own styles of rails and tracks. Some track designs had different size of gauges, which varied from 2.5 to 6 feet. Transcontinental Railroads changed history, after Union Pacific and the Central Pacific railroad companies united to make what was known as the first Transcontinental Railroad in the U.S., which allowed people to travel from New York to California in just a few days, rather than weeks. This meant that railroads had to withstand different scenarios and climates, for that matter, railroads had to last and also be versatile since they were not only going to carry passengers, but merchandise as well, and they had to be able to carry both without needing extra changes. Another advantage was the price of the property where any railroad tracks passed increased.

Answer:

Factories, Mines, and Child Labor

The Industrial Revolution created a great deal of change in society.

One major change was the shift from work being done at home by

hand in cottage industries to work being done in factories. There

were harsh and unsafe working conditions in these early factories.

The machines posed a significant threat to workers’ lives. Even more

deadly was work performed in coal mines. Owners of mines and

factories had considerable control over the lives of laborers who

worked long hours for low pay. An average worker would work 14

hours a day, six days a week. Fearful of losing their jobs, workers

would typically not complain about the horrible conditions and low

pay. Owners realized that they could pay women and children less

than men. Child labor increased because it kept the costs of

production low and the profits high. As a result, the working class

lived in poverty, while the bosses who made up the middle class

grew wealthy.

Which best describes the attitude of the British toward American colonists?
Bumek [7]
The answer is B. Although the colonists were the same British citizens as in Britain, they were treated very differently. Colonists were seen as poor, unsophisticated underlings that could not think for themselves. The British saw themselves as an older brother, someone who watches over the colonists to make sure they don’t make a mess of things.
