How did the scientific revolution contribute to the birth of the enlightenment?

History

ella [17]3 years ago
7 0

Correct answer:

<h2>by promoting observation and analysis</h2>

Explanation:

The Scientific Revolution questioned superstition and traditional beliefs that had not been investigated.  The Enlightenment championed this approach to knowledge, emphasizing the use of reason in all matters, in contrast to following superstition or unquestioningly accepting traditional beliefs.  

The Scientific Revolution showed that there are natural laws in place in the physical world and in the universe at large.  Applying similar principles to matters like government and society, Enlightenment thinkers believed that using reason will guide us to the best ways to operate politically so we can create the most beneficial conditions for society.  For many Enlightenment thinkers, this included a conviction that all human beings have certain natural rights which are to be protected and preserved.    This led to changes of approach to how society should be governed -- moving away from ideas like the "divine right of kings" to the establishment of more democratic, constitutional societies.

The Spanish used this in their advantage and left the Aztecs to think that way, bringing them in their capital and making them familiar with it, but also brought smallpox with in the city, killing off the Aztecs. Cortes and his men were hungry for gold, and the Aztecs had lot of it. The Spanish understood that most of the people conquered by the Aztecs hated them, so they made alliances with them in order to attack them and take over their empire. Together, the Spanish and the local people managed to defeat the Aztecs and took over their territory, marking the beginning of the Spanish empire in the New World.

kiruha [24]

Answer:

<u>The correct answer is yellow journalism or yellow press.</u>

Explanation:

To find the origin of the term "yellow journalism" or "yellow press", we have to go back to the end of the 19th century, specifically to the period between 1895 and 1898.  

At that time there was a journalistic struggle of a great rivalry between two important New York newspapers: <u>the New York World (NYW) by Joseph Pulitzer and the New York Journal (NYJ) by William Randolph Hearst (two of the great press magnates). </u>It was customary in both publications to publish frequent news related to catastrophes, crimes, robberies, scandals and family misfortunes, in addition, they usually present the information emphasizing the negative aspects, magnifying and exaggerating them, seeking a greater number of sales.

Which group is allowed to unionize but NOT strike?
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

A. federal employees

Explanation:

Federal employees are allowed to unionize so that they can negotiate working conditions and have a stronger standing position before the federal government when it comes to protecting their rights.

However, they are not allowed to strike because federal workers provide a service that is considered too vital to be interrupted under any circumstance. This is why people like FBI agents, or US Army marines, can unionize, but never go on strike.
