What is the truth in what the ancient Greek scientist Archimedes said?

You should be saying his most famous sentence, give me a fulcrum and I will pry up the whole earth, this is just a physical principle, the principle of levers, when it is said it is just a word of excitement, highlighting the greatness of mechanics, the self-excitement of the principle of enlightenment, and the words quoted can be used in nothing is impossible

Suppose Archimedes really found a foothold, and if he really found a lever long enough, how long would it take him to lift the earth even by one centimeter?

The mass of the earth is 6,1024 kilograms, and if a person can lift 60 kilograms directly, then he has to lift the earth, and the long arm of the lever will be 1,023 times that of the short arm, which means that if the end of the short arm is lifted 1 centimeter, then the long arm will draw a large arc in space, and its arc length is 1,021 meters, and if we think that Archimedes can lift a 60-kilogram weight by 1 meter in one second (this kind of work is quite amazing). Then, if he wants to lift the earth by 1 centimeter, it will take 3 1013 years.

Archimedes was born in Syracusa, Italy. Archimedes was born in 287 BC in a small village near Syracuse in Sicily, where he was born into a noble family and was related to King Henon, who was the ancient king of Syracuse.

Archimedes, a famous mathematician and physicist in ancient Greece, was the founder of statics and hydrostatics. is a legendary figure. Known as the "father of mechanics", Archimedes is one of the world's top three mathematicians, along with Gauss and Newton.

Archimedes made great contributions to the development of mathematics and physics, and made an indelible impact on social progress and human development, and Newton and Einstein also drew wisdom and inspiration from him.

This modern scientist has long been proven that it is theoretically possible, but in practice it is impossible. First you have to pry the earth, first you have to have a lever, but how long is that? There is also the problem of the fulcrum, in addition, meteorites are flying in space, you are going to ** to find the fulcrum?

It is important to know that the law of leverage is to put the weight of the pry animal body on the fulcrum and lever, can the fulcrum and lever that can support the earth exist? At least not for the time being.

So it's just a theoretical success, and practice is a doomed thing.

Personally, I think that either Archimedes is an exaggerated statement that comes to attract people. Either Archimedes is ignorance, ignorance of the earth and the universe. Note that it is not that Archimedes is stupid13, but simply because of the limitations of ancient technology, which led to Archimedes' ignorance caused by not knowing the cosmic environment.

Theoretically, of course, it is possible, as long as there is enough leverage. But even current technology may not be successful.

In addition, this sentence actually expresses Archimedes' spirit of advocating science and pursuing truth. It's worth learning from.

It's possible to find a fulcrum as long as you have enough leverage.

It has to be possible, you find something you can't move, and you can try it with a lever.
