6 Name: Date: Industrial Revolution PowerPoint Notes Answer Key The Industrial Revolution Begins s most people were farmers making cloth, tools, furniture by hand s people began making cloth and other goods in factories 3. New forms of transportation moved people and goods faster. 4. These changes in the manufacturing of goods and advancement of transportation are called the Industrial Revolution. 5. The Industrial Revolution started in Britain. 6. Inventors created machines for the British textile, or cloth, industry. 7. In 1790, the first cotton-spinning mill in the United States opened. Eli Whitney 8. In 1793, Eli Whitney invented a cotton engine, or cotton gin. 9. This machine allowed cotton to be cleaned quickly. 10. Cotton became the nation s largest export. 11. After inventing the cotton gin, Whitney was hired to make 10,000 guns for the U.S Government.

7 12. Guns were made by hand, which was very time consuming. 13. To make the guns faster, Whitney used interchangeable parts. 14. Interchangeable parts are parts made by a machine to be the exact same size and shape. 15. Whitney used mass production to make the guns. Mass production is making many products at once. 16. Manufacturers used the combination of interchangeable parts and mass production to make many tools and machines. 17. This new way of making tools and machines increased the productivity of the United States. Lowell Mills 18. In 1814, Francis Cabot Lowell built a mill near Boston, Massachusetts. 19. Lowell s mill had both cotton-spinning machines and power looms to weave cloth. 20. It was the first mill in the world to turn raw cotton into finished cloth, all in one place. 21. Lowell s factory was a great success. 22. Other cotton and wool factories soon opened. 23. New England became the center of a growing textile industry. 24.

8 Cyrus McCormick built a horse-drawn reaper. A reaper cuts grain. McCormick s reaper harvested an acre of wheat in an hour, which was a task that used to take about 20 hours John Deere invented the steel plow. This plow cut through tough soil. Deere s invention made it easier for farmers to plow through thick soil.

The boat s paddlewheel powered it against the flow of water. 31. Until then, boats needed oars, wind, or water currents to move. Within a few years, steamboats were widely used on rivers.

9 32. Because roads were so poor at the time, rivers and canals were the fastest and cheapest way to ship goods. 33. Canals are waterways built for travel and shipping The Erie Canal opened. This canal connected the Hudson River to Lake Erie. Railroads 35. Wagons, steamboats, and canals all changed transportation. The biggest change was the steam locomotive. 36. A trip from New York City to Albany, NY took 32 hours by steamboat took only 10 hours by train. 37. By 1850, the nation had 9,000 miles of railroad track.
