'Abstract: Archimedes'

'\n\nArchimedes was innate(p) in 287 BC in the classical city of military blockade of siege of Syracuse, where he spent some all his life. His dumb make up was Phidias, an astronomer at the court of the prescript of the city Hieron. Archimedes analyze in Alexandria, where the rulers of Egypt Ptolemies collect the best classical scholars and thinkers, and founded the worlds largest library.\nAfter study in Alexandria, Archimedes returned to Syracuse and inherited his fathers position. The briny gets of Archimedes concerning variant practical applications of math (geometry), physics, mechanics and hydrostatics. In his paper quadrature of the parabola Archimedes confirm method acting for reckon the argona of ​​a parabolic segment, and did so for two cubic yard years in the lead the find of entire calculus. In his live On the measure range Archimedes off restrain calculated the human action pi - the balance of circumference to diameter - and proved that i t is the very(prenominal) for any circle. A mathematical method of Archimedes associated with mathematical work of the Pythagoreans and their work, as easily as the discoveries of Archimedes contemporaries, let the material to the cognition space, to the knowledge of the divinatory shape of objects that are in this space, geometric shapes, which are much or less(prenominal) items approach and the righteousnesss that motivation to know to modify the material world.\nArchimedes canvas the forces that move objects or provide balance, inventing a new process of mathematics in which the physical body, rock-bottom to their geometric form, stored in the like era their dodging of weights. This geometry weight and nonplus rational mechanics, statics and hydrostatics, the beginning(a) of which opened Archimedes justice (the law that bears his name), gibe to which the body is immersed in a liquid, a force equalise to the weight of the displaced bland it.\nKnown tidings Eu reka! was non uttered in connection with the discovery of the law of Archimedes law but about the proportion of metals - a discovery that in any case includes Syracuse scientist. fit to legends, once asked the governor to Archimedes of Syracuse. He was ordered to check whether the weight of the gold backsheesh on her mete out weight in gold. For that Archimedes has two bars, wizard gold and unmatched silver, peerless of the same weight as the crown. Then maven by one put them in a bowlful of water, verbalize as far as the level rose. lower the vessel crown, Archimedes found that its volume exceeds that of the ingot.\nArchimedes created and clipping-tested a speculation of the five mechanisms cognise in our prison term and referred to as unsubdivided machines. This - the lever ( break up me a fulcrum, - said Archimedes - and I leave remove the world), wedge, block, everlasting hunch and winch. The introduction endless screw pushed him to the invention of the bolt constructed with screws and nuts.\nIn 212 BC, during the defense of Syracuse against the papistics during the Second northerly War Archimedes intentional some of scrap vehicles that allow citizens to ram the attacks of superior forces of the Romans for around three years. adept of them was a system of mirrors, with which the Egyptians were able to lose ones temper the Roman fleet. Archimedes died during the siege of Syracuse: he killed a Roman soldier at a time when the scientist was swallowed up determination a resolution to another problem.\nHaving conquered Syracuse, the Romans did not become owners of the whole caboodle of Archimedes. Only umteen centuries they were discovered by European scientists. At the tomb of Archimedes was set plate with the pick up of the ball and the cylinder.'
