Brief Explanations
- Nicolaus Copernicus proposed the heliocentric theory which places the sun at the center of the universe. The geocentric theory places Earth at the center, the geographic theory is not relevant here, and the Johannes Kepler Theory of Relativity is a mis - named concept (Kepler is known for laws of planetary motion, not a theory of relativity).
- Isaac Newton is credited with the three laws of motion. Galileo made contributions to the study of motion but not the three laws. Charles Darwin is known for the theory of evolution, and Renee Descartes is a philosopher known for his work in epistemology and mathematics.
- Voltaire is most associated with religious tolerance and freedom of speech. Thomas Hobbes is known for his work on social contract theory, John Locke for natural rights and limited government, and Mary Wollstonecraft for women's rights.
