2. The Second Ind. Rev. (this slide repeated from IndustrialRevolution2 ppt) Industrial growth in the US from the mid-1800s, and expansion in Europe, became known as the Second Industrial Revolution. Use of steel, electricity, and oil, and new inventions in communication made the second industrial revolution possible. Steel replaced iron to make stronger and lighter factory machinery, bridges. Steel production surged, making it cheaper.

3. The Second Ind. Rev. (this slide repeated from IndustrialRevolution2 ppt) Electricity became the major new source of energy, used to power machines, provide heat and light. Electricity led to new inventions that began a revolution in communication: the telegraph, telephone, and radio. Telegraph: Samuel Morse Telephone: Alexander Graham Bell Radio: Marconi
