In the third century BC, the Greek mathematician
Chapter 1, Problem 91(choose chapter or problem)
In the third century BC, the Greek mathematician Archimedes is said to have discovered an important principle that is useful in density determinations. The story told is that King Hiero of Syracuse (in Sicily) asked Archimedes to verify that an ornate crown made for him by a goldsmith consisted of pure gold and not a gold silver alloy. Archimedes had to do this, of course, without damaging the crown in any way. Describe how Archimedes did this, or if you don t know the rest of the story, rediscover Archimedes s principle and explain how it can be used to settle the question.
