What year was it when Archimedes found buoyancy?

Archimedes discovered the principle of buoyancy in approximately 250 BC.


What is the law of the lever and who discovered it?

The law of the lever states that the product of the weight being lifted and its distance from the fulcrum is equal to the product of the force applied and its distance from the fulcrum. This principle was discovered by the ancient Greek mathematician and physicist Archimedes.


Who discovered the law of flotation?

The law of flotation was discovered by Archimedes, a Greek mathematician and scientist, in the 3rd century BC. He determined that an object will float in a fluid if the weight of the fluid displaced by the object is equal to the weight of the object itself.


What is the scientific law that predicts the amount of buoyant force on a submerged or floating object?

Archimedes' Principle is the scientific law that predicts the amount of buoyant force on a submerged or floating object. It states that the buoyant force on an object is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object.


Who discovered how to determine buoyant force?

Nobody invented it; it's a property of our world, and of our universe.However, the Greek scientist/philosopher Aristotle is credited for being the first to investigate the phenomenon.In an apocryphal tale (the historical equivalent of an urban legend) while pondering how to tell whether a crown was made from gold or some other less-precious metal, he noticed that his body displaced an equal amount of water out of the bathtub. The discovery so moved him that he ran naked through the streets, shouting, "Eureka! Eureka!"
