Feliz [49]4 years ago
4 0

Answer: James Watt / Thomas Newcomen

Explanation:

  • The two names that are most responsible for the use of steam in the industry. The original steam engine was modified in 1712 but was later refined by James Watt, who was credited with the invention. The invention was a revolution in traffic, and a steam engine, except on land, was also used to launch ships (steamboat).
  • Mentioned in 1712, Thomas Newcomen is the person who was responsible for the construction of the steam-pumped atmospheric pump. His invention worked for much of the eighteenth century but was not economical. Thanks to the technical refinement by James Watts, a revolution is about to occur in the industry.

Which of the following accomplishments is associated with Benjamin Franklin?
salantis [7]

Persuading the French to aid the colonies in the war

Ben Franklin was a diplomat to France and worked to negotiate an alliance between the colonies and the French.

Benjamin Franklin was well known in France for his work in science and in intellectual circles. This made him the perfect person to negotiate an alliance with the much needed country of France. France was hesitant to join in an independence movement unless the Americans could prove some success. Following the Battle of Saratoga, which was an American victory, France was willing to make an alliance. This alliance provided weapons, money, supplies, and training which were all needed by colonial troops.
