Industrial Revolution

• Industrial Revolution, – widespread replacement of manual labor by

machines that began in Britain in the 1700s.

– Causes of the Industrial Revolution• New farming methods• New technology

Ch. 5 Sec. 1

Dawn of the Industrial Age• Life before Industrialization

– People lived in simple homes– Worked using hand tools– Light

• Candles– Clothes

• Made their own – Food

• Grew their own– Traveled

• by foot or horse– Communicate

• Sent Messages or messenger

• Life after industrialization• Towns turned to cities• Machines began to do work• Light

» Electricity • Bought

» clothes and food• Travel • boat or train• Communicate

» telegram

New Inventions

• Anesthetic– Kills pain

• Sewing machine

• Tool to measure the speed of light

• Antiseptic• Kills germs

New Farming Methods• Lord Charles Townshend

• Urged farmers to grow turnips, because it replenished the soil

• Jethro Tull• Invented the Seed Drill

– Helped farmers, because it planted seeds in a row

New Technology

• Energy– Coal

• Used to power the steam engine

• Thomas Newcomen– Invented the steam engine

• James Watt– Improved Newcomen’s steam

engine

Britain Leads the way

Why did the Industrial Revolution begin in Britain?

1. Plenty of coal and iron

2. Large number of workers

3. Rapid population growth (5 mil to 9 mil in one year)1. Why?

1. More food = less famine

2. More medicine = less sickness, disease

4. Entrepreneurs took risks to start new businesses

5. Increased Trade = more money

Continued

6. Stable government (constitutional monarchy)

7. Strong navy

8. Britain was the center of the Scientific Revolution

9. Skilled mechanics

The Age of Iron and Coal

10. Darby invented a new way to produce iron.

1. Coal replaced wood to smelt iron1. Made iron cheaper, but better.

Changes in the Textile Industry

Cotton

11.New inventions improve the British textile (cloth) industry

1. Spinning jenny (spins cotton into cloth)

12.First factories are built1. Machines were too large to be in homes

2. Factories were located near streams and railroads

1. transportation

Revolution in Transportation

9. Steam locomotive (train)1. Faster and cheaper transport

10.Steamboats improved shipping1. Faster and cheaper transport

1. Max speed was 5 mph

Reviewing key terms

11.Abraham Darby1. He produced better quality and less expensive

iron

12.Richard Arkwright1. Hard working entrepreneur who invented the

waterframe to speed up spinning cotton.

13.Factory1. Places that brought together workers and

machines to produce large quantities of goods

14.Turnpike1. Privately built roads that charge a fee to travelers

who used them

15.Robert Fulton1. American who used James Watt’s steam engine

to power a boat that broke the speed record1. 5 mph
