Detailed explanation-2: -Perhaps his best-known achievement was his “Eureka” moment when he discovered the principle of buoyancy.
Detailed explanation-3: -Legend says that Archimedes discovered the principle of displacement while stepping into a full bath. He realized that the water that ran over equaled in volume the submerged part of his body. Through further experiments, he deduced the above mentioned Archimedes’ principle.
