Answer:

Steam engines use hot steam from boiling water to drive a piston (or pistons) back and forth. The movement of the piston was then used to power a machine or turn a wheel. To create the steam, most steam engines heated the water by burning coal.

Explanation:

your first question is boiling water

second question is Before steam power, most factories and mills were powered by water, wind, horse, or man. Water was a good source of power, but factories had to be located near a river.

the last one is While the Spaniard first patented a steam-operated machine for use in mining, an Englishman is usually credited with inventing the first steam engine. In 1698, Thomas Savery, an engineer and inventor, patented a machine that could effectively draw water from flooded mines using steam pressure.

lana66690 [7]

Answer:

Treaty of Guadalupe-Hidalgo was a peace treaty between Mexico and the United States, signed on February 2, 1848 in the Mexican village of Guadalupe Hidalgo near Mexico City following the results of the Mexican- American War of 1846-1848.

The agreement established that Mexico, which has been defeated by the American military, had to cede up to 1.36 million km² (about 55% of its territory), which included the modern territory of the states of California, Nevada, Utah, New Mexico, Texas, parts of Arizona, Colorado, Wyoming, Kansas and Oklahoma. In addition, Mexico refused all requirements for Texas, and the international border was established on the Rio Grande River. In compensation, the United States pledged to pay 15 million dollars for damages to Mexican territory during the war. The United States also took on $ 3.25 million of Mexican government debt to US citizens.
