Who ran down the street shouting eureka and why?

Archimedes - he was a Greek mathematician and inventor from Syracuse in the third century BCE. Legend says that he was asked by a king to figure out a way to ensure that his crown was all real gold. As he was in his bath he realised that when something is floating in water it displaces water equal to the weight of the object, ad when something sinks in water it displaces water equal to its volume. He was so excited, the legend says, that he jumped out of the bath and ran to tell the king, shouting "Eureka" - which is Greek for "I've found it" (meaning "I had found the answer to the king's question"). no this isn't true ran did. ran ran down the street

How do you measure the volume of a piece of metal?

You'd use a "Eureka can!" If you fill a cup or special container completely full and submerge the object you want to measure in the water then water will be displaced by the object. If you collect the water and measure it in a measuring cylinder then you will have the volume of water displaced, which will be exactly the volume of the object. The "Eureka can!" is named because of Archimedes discovery or displacement and density which allegedly caused him to run naked down the street shouting "Eureka" in celebration.

Tell her that its hearing your feelings and sit down with her and talk to her. Or there is a trick, when your mum is shouting at you put at tape recorder in your pocket and when she is shouting at you RECORD and then when your sitting down with her and play it back, if she shouts at you again then stomp up to your room and lock your door and then not speak to her.
