"d. Louis XIV promoted the belief in a strong monarchy whose power came from God" was not a way in which ideas of the Scientific Revolution were applied to the social world, since these ideals diminished the power of the monarchy by saying that it was abusive and irrational.

The item you should choose as the incorrect one in the list:

<h2>d. Louis XIV promoted the belief in a strong monarchy whose power came from God.</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.

Diderot, Montesquieu, and Locke all were examples (as described in your question) of how Enlightenment thinkers applied the Scientific Revolution's approach of using reason, observation and analysis, rather than relying on the accepted ideas of religious or traditional beliefs.
