Pace of industrial change in Britain-

* Cotton and metals were the most dynamic industries:

Iron and steel industry lead the way after the cotton sector and demand for iron and steel increased rapidly by the 1840s.

* New industries could not displace the traditional ones-

Less than 20% of the total workforce was employed in the technological sector. Large portion of output was produced at the countryside.

* Pace of change in the traditional Industries was not set up by steam powered cotton or Metal Industries.

* Technological changes occurred slowly:

New technology was expensive, there repairing cost was high, were not as effective as they were claimed, and workers for cautious about using them.

* Traditional craftsperson:

Workers in the mid 19th century was not a machine operator but the traditional crafts person and the labourers.

Answer:

British industry's rate of change:

Explanation:
