Archimedes inventions changed the world because for example, we wouldn't be able to ship military cargo, or have Cruise ships due to this man. This man found out buoyancy which is covered in Archimedes principal. Have you ever wondered how big cargo ships float float? They float because the volume is more than the mass of the actual ship. That means that the density of the ship is lower. Now if the ship had more mass than volume, the boats would sink to the bottom of the ocean. Thank you Archimedes

Archimedes was a Greek mathematician who lived in the third century, B.C. Among his contributions were a formula for calculating the area of the circle and a way of determining whether an object is made of pure gold by measuring its density.
Archimedes had a great impact. The greatest impact I think he had was finding the value of pi (pie) which is 3.14159. It may look more familiar if I show you the symbol- π
Archimedes was a Greek mathematician. He came up with quite a few formulas and some significant work regarding Pi. However, his work was not elaborated on until more modern times.
The contribution of Archimedes in physics are quite remarkable. Some of his main contributions was the law of buoyancy and also the principles of mechanics.
Archimedes lived in Syracuse, (Sara-cuse) Silica, Italy
The full name of the scientist Archimedes is Archimedes of Syracuse. He was a Greek mathematician, physicist, engineer, inventor, and astronomer who made significant contributions to mathematics and physics. Archimedes is best known for his work in geometry, including the calculation of pi, and for his principle of buoyancy known as Archimedes' principle.
Archimedes was trying to test an experiment to see how to focus light with big iron plates. the Roman came and accidently interfered with the experiment and Archimedes had a go at him. The Roman soldier not recognising or not caring about Archimedes brilliant mind and discoveries killed him on the spot
Archimedes did not conquer anything. He was a scientist, not a general or a politician.
