Explanation: I believe that it is appropriate to call the time periods between 1300 and 1650 a scientific revolution , because many new ideas and theory's of Science and Math were Brought into the light. Such as the Earth revolving around the sun or the telescope made my Galileo Galilei, and these advancements led to the development of calculus, probability, and Analytical geometry! So in my personal opinion I would say that, Yes, the time periods listed above should be considered a Scientific Revolution.

Ps- Don't copy and paste this just base your own work off of it, Please.

It is very appropriate to call the time period between 1300 and 1650 a Scientific Revolution because in that period a series of events marked the emergence of modern science. Developments in mathematics, physics, astronomy, biology and chemistry completely transformed society.

It was demonstrated that the planet earth was not the centre of the universe, but an orbit around the sun and shared a placement with other planets made from the same changeable substances.

Newton developed the theory of gravitation in 1679. He started to consider gravitation and its effect on the orbits of planets.

Johannes Kepler published Astronomiae Pars Optica where he described the inverse-square law governing the intensity of light, reflection by flat and curved mirrors, and principles of pinhole cameras, as well as the astronomical implications of optics such as parallax and the apparent sizes of heavenly bodies.
