Explain the role that eli whitney played in america's industrial revolution. what impact did his inventions have on the south and what impact was felt in the north?

Eli Whitney invented the cotton gin which was a crucial invention at that time. Because of the efficiency of the machine, it contributed to an economic boom in the South. This led to the preservation of slavery in the South and ultimately to the Civil War in the United States. 

Ifound this on google “simply, the working conditions were terrible during the industrial revolution. as factories were being built, businesses were in need of workers. with a long line of people willing to work, employers could set wages as low as they wanted because people were willing to do work as long as they got paid.” i hope this you for what your looking for.
