Scientific Method
Steps of systematic observation, measurement, and experiments, and testing
I developed the geocentric model
Aristotle
This law states that an object at rest will remain at rest, and an object in motion will continue moving at a constant velocity unless acted upon by an external force.
Newton's First Law of Motion
earth centered universe
geocentric
What happened to Galileo Galilei after he begin teaching the truth about the solar system?
He was put on house arrest until he died.
what is the 1st step of the scientific method?
observe or state the problem
I developed the sun centered universe known as heliocentric theory
Nicolaus Copernicus
I believed that Planetary movement is a mathematical formula and Planets move around the Sun in elliptical orbits NOT circles.
Johannes Kepler
sun centered universe
heliocentric
How did Galileo come up with his theories?
By observing evidence.
hypothesis
I designed the 1st telescope w/lens & sees movement of stars & moons.
Galileo Galilei
This law relates the acceleration of an object to the net force acting upon it and its mass, expressed as F = ma.
Newton's Second Law of Motion
what goes up must come down. every object in universe attracts every other object
law of gravity and motion
Which scientist is responsible for creating the Three Laws of Motion, studied Light Prisms and Universal Gravitation.
Sir Isaac Newton
Francis Bacon
This English philosopher and statesman is known for developing the empirical method and is often referred to as the father of modern science
Sir Francis Bacon
I believed in universal law of motion and that every object in universe attracts every other object. I explained gravity
Isaac Newton
Before the Scientific Revolution, who did society believe about the natural world?
Ancient Greek and Romans sources; Catholic church beliefs
Which type of orbit did Johannes Kepler believe the planets revolved in?
Elliptical Orbit
(Ellipses - Oval)
This English physicist formulated the laws of motion and universal gravitation, laying the foundation for classical mechanics
Isaac Newton
What step of the Scientific Method shows you results of the test?
Analyze
This invention from the Scientific Revolution helped people better understand and study diseases.
The Microscope
What crime did Copernicus and Galileo commit by confirming the heliocentric theory? Why?
Heresy; because the church believed in the geocentric model that God placed earth in the center of the universe
Which scientific revolutionist discovered gravity and stated it was constant force, improved the clock with a swinging pendulum and improved the telescope?
Galileo Galilei
