Explanation:

Belief in the supernatural-and specifically in the devil's practice of giving certain humans (witches) the power to harm others in return for their loyalty-had emerged in Europe as early as the 14th century, and was widespread in colonial New England. In addition, the harsh realities of life in the rural Puritan community of Salem Village (present-day Danvers, Massachusetts) at the time included the after-effects of a British war with France in the American colonies in 1689, a recent smallpox epidemic, fears of attacks from neighboring Native American tribes and a longstanding rivalry with the more affluent community of Salem Town (present-day Salem). Amid these simmering tensions, the Salem witch trials would be

fueled by residents' suspicions of and resentment toward their neighbors, as well as their fear of outsiders.

What is the "heliocentric theory?"

Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

A. The theory that the Sun is the center of the universe

Explanation:

Unquestionably, the Heliocentric Revolution is among the most important scientific breakthroughs ever. It involved the systematic replacement of the more recent Heliocentric Model, which accorded the sun global priority, with the earlier Geocentric Model, which put Earth at the center of the universe. From a philosophical standpoint, this would also alter how Western philosophers would need to redefine our significance in the cosmos. By casting doubt on their alleged infallibility in the sciences, it would politically undercut the influence of established religion, which supported the Geocentric model to a great extent.
