How 'MAKE' build tool detect the changes? ,It's really awesome think about it.

Answer 1

Ok so the makefile tells make the command (s) to build the binary (or any file). The makefile also tells make all of the dependencies. So I think make will check if the binary already exists, if it exists it will only rebuild the binary if at least 1 dependency is newer. Same with dependencies of dependencies.
