Which consequence accelerated after the Qin Dynasty's development of composite trigger mechanisms in volume-produced crossbows?

💡 Explanation

Increased crossbow production resulted in larger, more easily equipped peasant armies, because improved trigger mechanisms created simple, standardized operation, therefore requiring less training rather than relying on expensive, skilled archers in earlier periods.

• Which limitation restricted practical surveying using early medieval astrolabes, due to inherent trigonometric functions?
• Which mechanism causes the iterative solutions in Al-Khwarizmi's algebra to converge to numerical approximations?
• Which outcome resulted from inconsistent steel tempering during mass-produced Han dynasty crossbow triggers?
• Which consequence resulted when Inca engineers miscalculated materials requirements via quipu?
• Which structural failure increases in ancient Inca rope bridges when subjected to prolonged cyclical loading?
• Which structural risk during siege increases as a rope bridge's span is lengthened to reach castle walls?
