Answer 1

The Renaissance was a re-birth of learning that reflected the major transition from feudalism to capitalism and the ensuing first-hand investigations in the service of the new economic system. So the most important legacy from the Renaissance into the Scientific Revolution was the importance of no longer being satisfied by idle speculation about nature but on the contrary to study the natural world with our 5 senses at the site of the economic activity. For example, with the first mining geologist, Georgius Agricola, he went right down into the underground mines and observed the miners at work and cross-examined them on their practices and also studied the surveyors techniques in practice and the smelting of ores so in this way gained genuine knowledge about the natural world  and the industrial processes.
