Question

Mr. Ram Kumar wishes to set up a cotton mill in Tamil Nadu. Name any four factors the availability of which he has to ensure.​

Answer 1

Answer:

The earliest cotton mills were driven by water, so needed to be situated on fast flowing streams. From about 1820, the stationary steam engine became the normal form of power for a cotton mill, water was still needed to produce the steam and to condense it, to maintain the humidity, for many of the finishing processes and for firefighting. Water was extracted from rivers and canals, then later mills requiring ever more water, built and maintained their own reservoirs.
