answer:

technology has changed the world in many ways, but perhaps no period introduced more changes than the second industrial revolution. from the late 19th to early 20th centuries, cities grew, factories sprawled and people’s lives became regulated by the clock rather than the sun.

“it was a tremendous transformation of people’s lives,” says joshua b. freeman professor of history at queens college and author of

behemoth: the making of the factory and the modern world .

rapid advances in the creation of steel, chemicals and electricity fuel production, including mass-produced consumer goods and weapons. it became far easier to get around on trains, automobiles and bicycles. at the same time, ideas and news spread via newspapers, the radio and telegraph . life got a whole lot faster.

factory jobs were grueling

it was an era when industrial growth created a class of wealthy entrepreneurs and a comfortable middle class supported by workers who were made up by immigrants and arrivals from america’s farms and small towns.

“people are coming from rural backgrounds who are used to self-directing their work, which is organized around the seasons and light,” freeman says. “now they are working in a factory that is clock-regulated and unchanging.”
