On the question of Archimedes, what happened to Archimedes

Archimedes was a great ancient Greek mathematician, physicist, engineer, inventor, and buried key astronomer who had many achievements in his career, with many famous theorems and inventions in mathematics and physics. But what happened to Archimedes has also become a topic of concern.

Archimedes' encounter began in 212 BC, when the Roman general Marius was concentrating on his mathematical research while the Roman general Marius was attacking the Greek walls of Syracuse, and was searched by the Roman army. During the search, when Archimedes refused to show any inventions and mathematical books needed by the army, it led to violence by the Roman soldiers, culminating in the tragic murder of Archimedes.

This event provides a lot of reflection and reflection for the study of ancient Greek and Roman cultures, as well as for the exploration of the history of science and innovation. From a historical point of view, this encounter has led to a new perspective and mode of understanding for future generations to understand Archimedes and the relationship between his studies and Roman culture. From the perspective of science and innovation, Archimedes' experience makes people aware of the role and social responsibility of scientists, as well as the possible impacts and contradictions of innovation, which is worth pondering.

Although what happened to Archimedes has lasted for thousands of years, there are still many similar events that occur today. Today's scientists, inventors, and innovation teams are still under political, social, and cultural pressures to take appropriate measures to protect their work and personal safety. For the study of history and culture, more attention and support are also needed to fully explore and utilize the value and influence of traditional culture.

Overall, Archimedes' story, while somewhat tragic, reminds us to value history and innovation, and to find harmony and balance in exploration and research for a better future. <>

Archimedes (287 BC - 212 BC), the great ancient Greek philosopher, encyclopedic scientist, mathematician, physicist, mechanic, founder of static mechanics and hydrostatics, and enjoys the reputation of "father of mechanics", Archimedes and Gauss, Newton are listed as the world's three major mathematicians. Archimedes once said, "Give me a fulcrum, and I will pry up the whole earth."

Archimedes established the basic principles of statics and hydrostatics. A number of methods are given for finding the center of gravity of a geometric figure, including the center of gravity of a figure enclosed by a parabola and its parallel chords of a net. Archimedes proved that the buoyancy of an object in a liquid is equal to the weight of the liquid it displaces, a result that became known as Archimedes' principle.

He also gave the criterion that the positive parabolic rotating body floats in a liquid and is balanced and stable. Archimedes' invented machinery includes a water spiral for water diversion, a lever pulley machine that can pull a fully loaded ship, and an earth-moon-sun model that can explain the phenomenon of solar and lunar eclipses. However, he did not write about mechanical inventions because he considered them inferior to pure mathematics.

Archimedes also used the method of continuous segmentation to find the volume of ellipsoids, rotating projectiles, etc., which already had the rudiments of integral calculation.
