Answer 1
Answer:

The development of a system of mass production in manufacturing meant that productivity increased while cost of production went down.

A good example is Henry Ford's Model T  car. Henry Ford designed a method of building a car by passing the car through an assembly line such that a mere chassis  at the start of the line ended up a complete vehicle driven under its own power as it reached the end of the line.  By using the assembly line, Henry Ford was able to combine accuracy , continuity and speed such that a complete Model T car was leaving the assembly line every 10 seconds.

In so doing, Ford was able to mass produce cars, meet customer demand and cut production cost and, ultimately ,the sale price of the car from 800 dollars to just 260 dollars, a very affordable price at the time.

How were African Americans treated in the USA Navy? Explain

Answers

Answer:

They were discriminated. There were only four

U.S. Army units under which African

Americans could serve. Prior to 1940,

thirty thousand blacks had tried to enlist in

the Army, but were turned away. In the

U.S. Navy, blacks were restricted to roles

as messmen. They were excluded entirely

from the Air Corps and the Marines. This

level of inequality gave rise to black

organizations and leaders who challenged

the status quo, demanding greater

involvement in the U.S. military and an end

to the military’s segregated racial practices.
