Impacts At The Time
The Scientific Revolution changed society intellectually, religiously and economically. This revolution got people to question and think about things they never thought deeply about before. Also, society became secular, which means they had no religious or spiritual activity. Economically, society was doing great due to new technological discoveries made by the scientists.
Impacts in modern society
This change, helped build and create Newton and Boyle's laws of motion. The work of all these people made it possible to create new technology and natural sciences today. For instance, it is easier to create an effective medical substance out of natural resources now days because of all the laws developed and tested during these times.
