Ep 3. Archimedes: Give Me a Lever and a Place to Stand, I Will Move the Earth

from Notable People in History · host Lawrence Jean-Louis

Let's take a look at the life of Archimedes… one of several great thinkers during the Hellenistic period. He’s credited with inventing the Archimedean screws, and the discovery of "Archimedes Principle,” which states that when an object is placed in a fluid, it is buoyed up by a force that is equal to the weight of the fluid is displaces. Hope that you enjoy learning about him as much as I did and that you subscribe and share.
