2 Explain the concepts of geocentric and heliocentric theories.

3 Identify the factors that contributed to the Scientific Revolution Explain how Copernicus, Kepler, and Galileo challenged traditional thought Identify the accomplishments of Isaac Newton and who’s works did he use to achieve them Identify some of the important scientist of the period and their discoveries.

4 Scientific Revolution Scientific method Geocentric theory Heliocentric theory

5 Renaissance/Reformation People were no longer content to explain the world in terms of religious thought, magic or ideas of ancient writers Use of experiments and mathematics to answer question about the natural world New instruments emerged Scientific Method

6 Until the 1500s there was little difference between science and magic Alchemists Before believed that Alchemists could use spells and magic formulas to try to change one substance into another Astrologers believed that positions of planets would influence human life

7 Natural Philosophers (medieval scientists) relied on religion and the works of the ancient Greeks and Romans to explain the natural world Began to change w/ the Renaissance Early investigators in solving ancient problems in astronomy, physics, and anatomy created a new way of thinking that no longer relied on magic

8 Renaissance encouraged curiosity as well as the search for new ideas Began to question old ideas and beliefs People were no longer content to explain the world in terms of religious thought, magic or ideas of ancient writers Use of experiments and mathematics to answer question about the natural world

9 Scientific Revolution: Transformation in thinking that occurred during the 1500s and 1600s caused by scientific observation, experiments and mathematical calculations to verify the results of the experiments

10 During the1500s people began to question traditional opinions and began to observe and experiment for themselves. Scientist had access to newly invented instruments: 1 st mercury barometer (1643-1644) barometer, microscope,thermometer, Galilean thermometer 1 st vacuum pump, constructed in 1656 1 st microscope, constructed around 1595 air pump,and telescope Galileo's telescope, constructed in 1609

11 scientific method Used scientific method to verify the results of an experiment Scientific method: Scientific method: method of inquiry that includes carefully conducted experiments and mathematical calculations to verify the results of experiments

12 Identify the factors that contributed to the Scientific Revolution Explain how Copernicus, Kepler, and Galileo challenged traditional thought Identify the accomplishments of Isaac Newton and who’s works did he use to achieve them Identify some of the important scientist of the period and their discoveries.

13 What the factors that contributed to the Scientific Revolution? Renaissance/Reformati0n People were no longer content to explain the world in terms of religious thought, magic or ideas of ancient writers Use of experiments and mathematics to answer question about the natural world New instruments emerged Scientific Method

14 Astronomers believed in Ptolemy’s theory that the Earth was the center of the universe and other planets and the Sun moved around it: On the Revolutions of Celestial Spheres heliocentric theory Copernicus published a book titled On the Revolutions of Celestial Spheres in which he explained his heliocentric theory Sun is the center of the universe Sun is the center of the universe Could not test and prove the theory with the instruments or the mathematics that was available to him Orbits were perfect circles Geocentric theory

15

16 Geocentric: “Earth-centered”Heliocentric: “Sun-centered”

17 Used mathematics to test the heliocentric theory of Copernicus ellipses Discovered the orbits of the planets were not exact circles, they were ovals called ellipses Could not be observed; only mathematicians understood it Kepler's Platonic solid model of the Solar system from Mysterium Cosmographicum (1596)

18

19 1. "The orbit of every planet is an ellipse with the sun at a focus.“ Planets travel around the sun in an ellipse 2. "A line joining a planet and the sun sweeps out equal areas during equal intervals of time.“ Planets move faster when they are closer to the sun 3. "The square of the orbital period of a planet is directly proportional to the third power of the semi- major axis of its orbit. Moreover, the constant of proportionality has the same value for all planets.“ Relates to the time it takes for a planet to complete an orbit around the sun

20 Provided concrete evidence that the Earth revolves around the Sun. Made a telescope and used it to disprove the geocentric theory

21 Galileo's drawings of the moons of Jupiter of successive nights Galileo's drawings of phases of the Moon. A sketch of the sun made by Galileo in June 1613.

22 Dialogue on the Two Great Systems of the World. Published findings in 1632 in Dialogue on the Two Great Systems of the World. Church disapproved of the theory because it seemed to contradict the Bible Inquisition In 1633, the Inquisition summoned Galileo to Rome, where it ordered him to renounce his belief. Galileo facing the Roman Inquisition by Cristiano Banti, 1857 Index of Forbidden Books Galileo was convicted of "grave suspicion of heresy" based on the book, which was then placed on the Index of Forbidden Books, from which it was not removed until 1835

23 How did Copernicus, Kepler, and Galileo challenged traditional thought?

24 Identify the factors that contributed to the Scientific Revolution Explain how Copernicus, Kepler, and Galileo challenged traditional thought Identify the accomplishments of Isaac Newton and who’s works did he use to achieve them Identify some of the important scientist of the period and their discoveries.

27 How did Copernicus, Kepler, and Galileo challenged traditional thought?

28 Ptolemy Ptolemy’s theory that the Earth was the center of the universe and other planets and the Sun moved around it: Geocentric theory Geocentric theory On the Revolutions of Celestial Spheres Copernicus published a book titled On the Revolutions of Celestial Spheres in which he explained his theory heliocentric theory heliocentric theory

29 Johannes Kepler: Used mathematics to test the heliocentric theory of Copernicus ellipses Discovered the orbits of the planets were not exact circles, they were ovals called ellipses Galileo Galilei telescope Used a telescope and provided concrete evidence that the Earth revolves around the Sun. Dialogue on the Two Great Systems of the World. Published findings in 1632 in Dialogue on the Two Great Systems of the World.

30 Use the picture above to answer the following questions. 1-3. Identify the scientists who are responsible for the 3 models of the solar systems. (Write the name next to the number (1,2,3)) 4. Based on the above illustrations, how were the three models of the solar system different?

32 Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy Published Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy combined and related the contributions of Copernicus, Kepler, and Galileo. law of motion universal gravitation Book contained his law of motion and universal gravitation, which explained the movements of objects on the Earth as well as of the planets.

33 Newton's First Law of Motion: An object moving in a straight line will continue moving in a straight line, unless acted on by an outside force. Also, an object at rest will stay at rest. The word for this is inertia. Newton's Second Law of Motion: Force will cause a change in the motion of an object. The change in motion depends on the amount of force and the mass of the object. There is a formula for this F=ma (force equals mass times acceleration). Newton's Third Law of Motion: For each action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.

34 Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy Issac Newton: Published Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy. Copernicus, Kepler, and Galileo It combined and related the contributions of Copernicus, Kepler, and Galileo.

37 Pioneered the study of anatomy. On the Fabric of the Human Body Published On the Fabric of the Human Body Helped people gain a visual understanding of the body and how it worked

38 Described the circulation of the blood through veins and arteries, the working of the heart, and the function of the blood vessels.

39 orders New “orders” help spread knowledge of the development of the Scientific Revolution Accademia dei Lincei in Rome Royal Society in London French Academy of Science in Paris Louis XIV King Charles II Federico Cesi

40 In Discourse of Method French philosopher and scientist who wrote In Discourse of Method argued that everything had to be proved, except basic ideas that were true beyond doubt i.e.. he could think and that proved his existence argued that everything had to be proved, except basic ideas that were true beyond doubt i.e.. he could think and that proved his existence “I think, therefore I am” “I think, therefore I am” "Father of Modern Philosophy“ Inventor of deductive reasoning: All thought follows a clear orderly progression

41 Researcher works from the more general information to the more specific An example of a deductive argument: 1. All men are mortal. 2. Aristotle is a man. 3. Therefore, Aristotle is mortal. 1. states that all objects classified as "men" have the attribute "mortal". 2. states that "Aristotle" is classified as a "man" – a member of the set "men". Conclusion :"Aristotle" must be "mortal" because he inherits this attribute from his classification as a "man".

42 English philosopher believed that only through observation and repeated experiments could theories be built.

44 Robert Boyle Helped pioneer the modern science of chemistry (1662) (Boyle’s Law amount of space gas takes up (in a room, tank, or balloon, for example) decreases as pressure is applied.) Joseph Priestley Discovered the element of oxygen in 1774

45 Antoine Lavoisier (luhv-WAHZ-ee-ay) Proved that matter can change form, but it can neither be destroyed nor created Law of Conservation of Matter Law of Conservation of Matter Showed that fire resulted when a substance rapidly combined with oxygen Steam mixes with air and becomes invisible
