Best Answer

Archimedes contributed to physics by discovering Archimedes' Principle, the law that an object submerged in a fluid is acted upwards upon by a force equal to the displaced weight. In mathematics, he provided the proof that an area of a portion of a parabola is 4/3 the area of a corresponding triangle.

What subjects are you supposed to do in high school to become a actual science?

If you want to become a scientist you will need to get a degree at minimum. Do you want to do physics chemistry or biology? If unsure do all three. And mathematics. While you MAY not require any as a prerequisite, doing them will make tertiary studies easier to transition to. For each steam, recommended prerequisites could be... Physics: physics, mathematics.
