Invented by James Hargreaves in
1764 |
The Spinning Jenny was a machine that weaved cotton and threaded fabric. This machine was much faster then the other old ones. This machine was apparently 8 times fasters because it could hold 8 people per table. The cotton that was made was send to London and inspected to see if it was ready for sale.

| Invented by Samuel F. B. Morse in 1838 |
The morse telegraph was the first electric telegraph used. It was invented to make communication faster then writing a letter and sending it to the post office then to the person. This used electricity and they would tape on the lever which would send a tap through the line that is connected to the other person with a telegraph. They had this code for the taps called the morse code. The person would listen to the taps and write it down on a piece of paper and send it to the person in that city/town.
What type of people (what class) had a morse telegraph?
ReplyDeleteThere was no class for anyone it was a job where you signed up to sit and listen to morse.
DeleteWho worked with spinning wheels? Was it women/men or a certain class?
ReplyDeleteMostly children and women used this in factories but sometimes men. The men were used for big machinery.
DeleteHow do you believe that these inventions assisted with the growth of businesses and how do you believe they affected the industrial revolution?
ReplyDeleteWell without the morse we would have phones we would still be using letters.
DeleteAnd with the spinning jenny we would still be weaving and threading clothes by hand today.
