Archimedes’ principle Main article: Archimedes’ principle Archimedes’ principle is named after Archimedes of Syracuse‚ who first discovered this law in 212 B.C.[2] For more objects‚ floating and sunken‚ and in gases as well as liquids (i.e. a fluid)‚ Archimedes’ principle may be stated thus in terms of forces: Any object‚ wholly or partially immersed in a fluid‚ is buoyed up by a force equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object. — Archimedes of Syracuse with the

when do people solve problems or make discoveries‚ and why? ● How does Asimov include the scientific information of Archimedes’ and Kekule’s discoveries necessary to help understand them better? ● What was Asimov’s idea behind “Eureka! Eureka!” and how did it fit into the purpose of the story? In the story The Eureka Phenomenon by Isaac Asimov‚ Asimov includes the scientific information of Archimedes’ and Kekule’s discoveries to help the audience understand the “Eureka Eureka” concept better in the story

History of Pi There are many people who have discovered and proved what pi is. As time goes on people discover more and more of the seemingly random numbers. Four of the people who proved pi are the Liu Hui‚ Archimedes of Syracuse‚ James Gregory‚ and the Bible. The first proof I will be talking about is Liu Hui’s. Liu Hui was a Chinese mathematician whose method for proving pi was to find the area of a polygon inscribed in a circle. When the number of sides on the inscribed polygon increased

Boyle’s Law states that under conditions of constant temperature and quantity‚ there is an inverse relationship between the volume and pressure for an ideal gas. Pascal’s Law states that if pressure is applied to a non-flowing fluid in a container‚ then that pressure is transmitted equally in all directions within the container. Archimedes’ principles is an upward force on an object immersed in a fluid (a liquid

story‚ including the humorous story of King Hieron II and Archimedes. This story in a nutshell was about King Hieron II giving a large amount of gold to a goldsmith to fashion a crown. After receiving the crown‚ King Hieron II had suspicions that the goldsmith had pulled a fast one on him. He believed that the crown was not 100% gold so he brought the problem to Archimedes‚ who had the greatest intellect of anyone in the world. Archimedes’ only solution to the problem was to flatten the crown and

Department of Math and Physics College of Science‚ University of Santo Tomas España‚ Manila Philippines Abstract The experiment would introduce us to 3 concepts‚ namely‚ the definition of relative density‚ the Archimedes principle and the determination of density by the Archimedes principle. In the first activity‚ we were tasked with finding the density of a cylinder of a known metal; this was done by submersing the cylinder of metal in a measured amount of water and calculating the displaced

It had long been recognized that the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter was constant‚ and a number of approximations had been given up to that point in time. Archimedes was the first person to calculate the value of pi. * Ptolemy- Ptolemy was an observer and
