Here's matching answers:

GEOCENTRIC = Idea that the Earth was in the center of the universe

HELIOCENTRIC = Copernicus idea that the sun is the center of the universe

UNIVERSAL LAW OF GRAVITATION = One of Newton's laws of motion. Every object in the universe is attracted to everything else by gravity.

SCIENTIFIC METHOD = Concept that scientists should observe and experiment in order to understand the natural world.

INDUCTIVE REASONING  = Bacon's systematic approach to collecting and analyzing evidence. Involves hypothesis and experimentation.

SEPARATION OF POWERS = Form of government in which the executive, legislative and judicial branches limit and control each other through checks and balances.

SOCIAL CONTRACT = Concept that society agrees to be governed by its general will and all individuals should be forced to abide by since it represents the community.

LAISSEZ-FAIRE = Government should not impose regulations but should leave the economy alone.

DIVINE RIGHT OF KINGS = Belief that God has chosen the Monarch to rule and they shall not answer to anyone else but God.

DEISM = 18th century religious philosophy based on reason and natural law.

  • Note: It seems to me there's a mistake in the list.  Deism best fits the description of an "18th century philosophy based on reason and natural law."  The listed term "balance of power" is more of a 19th century political theory that was employed at the Congress of Vienna.
