Once upon a time a really fat dude was taking a bath and in the bath he realized how light he was in water. So he thought he was some genius and ran around the streets naked saying "I found it!" but in greek. So then everyone went crazy and thought a bath tub was some new type of weight loss program, but they got fat again when they got out, they got mad and killed Archimedes. No one ever used the bath tub as a weight loss program again, because people were scared to run around the town like some idiotic nudists. The end.

When did Archimedes find volume?

1805


How Archimedes discovered the density?

Archimedes discovered density by sitting in a bath full of water, and realized the water that spilled out was how much space he took up in the bath. How many liters that spilled out was how many liters Archimedes took up in the world. As legend has it, when he found this out he ran into the street - naked - shouting "Eureka!" which means, in Greek, "I've found it!" He was shouting "Eureka" because the king asked him to find out if his crown was all gold or did the goldsmith take some gold and used silver instead.


What did Archimedes accomplish?

Archimedes was considered one of the best arithmeticians ever to have lived. He perfected a method of integration which allowed him to find areas, volumes, surface areas, and centers of mass of many geometrical objects.


Why did Archimedes said eureka when he discovered his principle?

Eureka!According to legend, Greek mathematician and engineer Archimedes shouted "Eureka" (Greek: "I have found it") when he discovered a way to calculate the volume of an irregular solid by submerging it in water and measuring the volume of water it displaced. This led to further discoveries involving density and buoyancy. In physics, buoyancy is the upward force on an object produced by the surrounding fluid (i.e., a liquid or a gas) in which the object is fully or partially immersed, due to the pressure difference of the fluid between the top and bottom of the object. The net upward buoyancy force is equal to the magnitude of the weight of fluid displaced by the body. This force enables the object to float or at least to seem lighter. Buoyancy is important for many vehicles such as boats, ships, balloons, and airships.Archimedes was given the task by the king to find out if his gold crown was made of only gold or some other cheap metals were mixed to it. Archimedes was continuosly thinking of the way to find it and while he was taking bath in a bath tub, he found that some water was spilled when he entered it.(he could then give the Archimedes principle after cetain experiments on buoancy). well he cried out eureka at that particular moment which in greek means "i have found it".


Can someone help me find bad background against Karl Landsteiner?

We have a debate in science and our group scientist is Archimedes. Our opponent's scientist is Karl Landsteiner. We have to prove why our scientist is better than the other scientist and i can't find anything on it. For anyone who is willing to help, thank you so much.
