Is Archimedes best known for his principle which deals with the buoyant force?
Yes, Archimedes is best known for his principle that is Archimedes' principle ( or the law of buoyancy )
Why is Archimedes' principle method called Archimedes' principle?
Archimedes principle is 'When a solid body is immersed wholly or partially in a liquid, then there is same apparent loss in its weight. This loss in weight is equal to the weight of the liquid displaced by the body.' It was given by Archimedes so it was named after him.
What does Archimedes principle and the buoyancy have in common and where is it employed?
Archimedes' principle is the statement that says buoyancy exists, and explains how to calculate its magnitude. The principle is applied extensively in the maritime shipping and hot-air balooning industries.
What are examples of Archimedes's principle?
A boat sailing on water.
What did Archimedes do to discover buoyancy?
Legend says that Archimedes discovered the principle of displacement while stepping into a full bath. He realized that the water that ran over equaled in volume the submerged part of his body. Through further experiments, he deduced the above mentioned Archimedes' principle.
