How did the Scientific Revolution change Europe?
The scientific revolution was a time period when many inventions and theories The scientific revolution influenced philosophers. They felt confident that they could discover natural laws that govern human behavior. New medicines were invented at this time. The scientific was also invented, and people looked at problems with logic instead of blindly following the church. Copernicus challenged the teachings that Earth was the center of the universe. He instead stated that the earth revolved around the sun. Using calculus, Newton proved this theory. Galileo also perfected the telescope at this time. Using his observations, he proved the church wrong and Copernicus correct in his theory.
What describes an important change to European society brought about by the Renaissance?
European artists began to create works that focused on topics other than the Bible and Christianity.
How did the Renaissance change European culture?
I would think that the Europeans what at least destroy many of the things that comes in there way.
How did the crusades accelerate change in Europe?
It brought about a redistribution of wealth and brought a new class of European to the fore front.
How did the voyages of discovery change European thought?
Not in terms of philosophy. It was the Renaissance and its re-discovery of Greek and Roman philosophy and arts that at this time changed European thought. The peoples in the discovered lands were either seen as heathen barbarians or as representatives of a totally alien culture. The voyages only changed European knowledge of geography and changed its thoughts about the possibilities for economic growth.
How did the studies of Galileo and Copernicus change the medieval view?
the studies of Copernicus and Galileo changed that view by having sex
Kepler's first law worked where Copernicus' original heliocentric model failed because Kepler described the orbits as?
Copernicus's theory did not fail but it was not as accurate as the Kepler model because it did not include elliptical orbits for the planets, as Kepler's model did. However the data for calculating the elliptical orbits did not become available until well after Copernicus's death so he had no chance of knowing about this change. Copernicus's model which used circles and epicycles was accurate to the standard of the observations that were available to him.
How did the scientific contributions of nicolaus Copernicus change the European world view?
by licking my butt
How did the church disagree from Copernicus and Galileo view of the universe?
This was because Catholic teachings back then were based on the idea that the Earth was the center of the Universe. Threatened by torture, Galileo was forced to deny that the Earth moves and that the Sun was the center of the Universe.
How did Copernicus and galileo change peoples ideas about the world during the renaissance time?
they both were scientist and both were astronomers and taught that the earth moves around the sun :)
Who were the two people that believed in the heliocentric model of the solar system?
The heliocentric idea, with the Sun at the centre, was part of a prediction model using circles and epicycles devised by Copernicus, called the heliocentric model. The heliocentric idea was adopted by Kepler in his work that led to the discovery of Kepler's laws of planetary motion. It was also used by Galileo in a famous dispute with the Catholic church which was not about to change its ideas without adequate evidence. The evidence came after Galileo's time when Newton made the necessary theoretical discoveries to understand the way the Sun's gravity produces planets' orbits. Since then everyone believes that the Sun is at the centre.
What were Nicolas Copernicus' greatest achievements?
one of his greatest achievements were he was the first European astronomer to change the medieval belief system =)
How did Copernicus Galileo and Newton each change people's understanding of the universe?
Scientific advances in astronomy, medicine, and other conflicts continue to have great effects on the way we live and face the world.
Why was Copernicus's discovery called the Copernicus revolution?
It represented a change in scientific thought
How did Copernicus change the world?
He change the peoples prospectives of the universe.
Why do you think other religious men condemned the ideas of Copernicus if he was providing that god created a more perfect system?
Copernicus produced an alternative model of the planets that had the Sun at the centre, which contradicted the religious view at the time. The church was unwilling to change its theology without adequte proof. The wisdom of the church's attitude was eventually proved when Copernicus's model was rejected in favour of one discovered by Kepler with elliptical orbits. It also had the Sun at the centre, and when the elliptical orbits were confirmed by Newton's theoretical discoveries the model was generally adopted.
What cause the scientific revolution?
The scientific revolution was caused by the change in concept of the physical world brought about by scientists like Galileo, Issac Newton, Copernicus, etc. Observation and experiments were used to explain theories. People shifted their views from blind traditions to logical solutions.
