What do Archimedes principal help to explain?
Archimedes principal explains buoyancy. The principle makes its use in ships and submarines.
What inventions of Archimedes are still being used today?
One invention Archimedes invented is the Archimedes Screw. It's still used today to irrigate crops.
What are the devices based on Archimedes principle?
Ships
Why is Archimedes' principle important?
Archimedes contributed the theory of buoyancy, which is significant because it allows us to measure an object's weight by its displacement in water, density, displacement, and the buoyancy of the liquid in which the object is acting.
What are some Greek gifts that you still use today?
1. Archimedes' principle - while constructing ships
What is Archimedes principle Explain hot it enables heavy ships to float?
Archimedes' principle states that the buoyant force acting on an object is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object. This principle enables heavy ships to float by pushing aside an amount of water equal to the weight of the ship, thus creating an upward buoyant force that balances the weight of the ship and keeps it afloat.
Compare submarines and ships?
Ships try to avoid sinking, submarines sink on purpose...
What did Archimedes do with mirrors?
Archimedes invented a device to set fire to ships. This used mirrors to focus the rays of the sun on the ships which were attacking the city.
How does buoyancy effect an object?
Buoyancy is the upward force exerted by a fluid that opposes the weight of an object immersed in it. The object will float, sink, or remain suspended depending on whether its density is less than, greater than, or equal to the density of the fluid. This principle is commonly used in designing ships, submarines, and hot air balloons.
How many allied and neutral ships were lost to submarines in 1917?
2,439 ships
How many Allied and neutral ships were lost submarines in 1917?
2,439 ships
What did Archimedes use magnets for?
Archimedes is purported to have used loadstones to remove nails from enemy ships thus sinking them.
