The Archimedes’ law of buoyancy

The video is one of the series of the TV programme “Eureka”, which was projected by the educational Greek television in 1981. Its purpose is to describe the phenomenon of buoyancy that had been discovered by the ancient Greek Mathematician, Archimedes. The video, which comes from the Canadian television TVO, is translated in Greek.    It explains why a metal material, like an anchor, is drown due to the fact that its density is higher than the water’s, and, as a result, the gravitational pull is greater than the force of the water that pushes it upwards. On the other hand, a cork floats due to its lower density, whereas a plastic material would be in the middle of the water without drowning because its density is equal to the water’s. This physical law is known as “Buoyancy”.

The barometer and the atmospheric pressure

The video describes how the barometer works. Initially, it was invented in order to explain the empty gap created in a tube filled with water. Invented by Torriccelli, the mercury barometer remained one of the most common ways to measure atmospheric pressure until 2007, when its use was forbidden due to its toxicity. The video is in English and contains Greek subtitles.
