When you think of Archimedes’ Eureka moment, you probably imagine a man in a bathtub, right? As it turns out, there's much more to the story. Armand D'Angour tells the story of Archimedes' biggest assignment -- an enormous floating palace commissioned by a king -- that helped him find Eureka.
Lesson by Armand D'Angour, animation by Zedem Media.
So...Archimedes was commissioned to build a cruise ship.
Paid with exposure
@@TylrTheDstryr Sounds like a good deal
@@fatcateatingspaghetti9483 not to mention 600 soldiers
Far more, far more.
A very BIG cruise ship.
Apologies for the double post! TED-Ed experienced a glitch with this video, but it's fixed now. Enjoy!

Hi! I'd like to share the link to this video, but I can't get the title to show in English. Even though the video is in English, the title appears in Italian. Could you help me? Thanks!
I was wondering why did this appear in my recommendations...
Then suddenly: Corona

Lol the UA-cam algorithm even factors in audio lmao. I fear for the future of privacy.
Can a mountain fly?
Heiron: write that down
Archimedes:bru... "runs away"
4:00, "...Syracusia arrived in Egypt, on its first and only voyage..."
It will be interesting to know why didn't "Syracusia" sail again?
because it was a gift from one ruler to another, the ship was left stationed in the harbor and never used again. Although I suspect it was quite a hell of an attraction for many years :D
Arturo Gutierrez Thank you.... and that's insane! Another example of the mass/wasteful projects that helped these empires collapse. It's the modern equivalent of finishing the Apollo 11 project, getting to the moon, then making the shuttle a tourist attraction and saying "Okay boys! We did it; we got to the moon! Time to shut NASA down and move to the next project."
***** I would imagine the logistics of maintaining it were too much.
+Durzo wowowowowow.... you do realize the benefit we get from this project right? we figure out buoyancy! and with nasa, we get memory foam, astronaut ice cream, automatic hand screwdriver thingy (im not much of a handy person, etc. those things not only lead to more progress in science and technology they also help us make a bunch of money and expand our empire. to say these things as "useless" shit, you must have a very shitty brain.
I'm a pooping unicorn Are you actually a "poop-brains unicorn"? Did you just skim the whole thing as fast as humanly possible? I just specifically endorsed what you're saying now - that NASA and this ship were invaluable - and it was turned into a giant waste by cancelling it after the very-first voyage, just as it would have been be a giant waste to shut down NASA the day after they landed on the moon.

I wish science class was taught like this. I'm no longer in school but this explanation is so good and interesting, I regret that I despised science in my schooling years
That's a very specific profile picture. Smells like adventure time
@@hareecionelson5875 That’s a very specific profile picture. Smells like The Incredibles
Science was one of the best buddy maybe u had bad teacher :c
Im very thankful to people like Archimedes . They are good at something and they want to teach the world their knowledge , either they want fame or not , they deserve glory . Not many capable people want to share their knowledge nowadays .
If you want to share your knowledge...you end up unemployed
@@mcmerry2846 and getting robbed
A massive war ship with promenades, gymnasiums, swimming pools, libraries, and watchtowers being held up by Atlas? And did you say temple of Aphrodite?
Someone should put this into a fantasy book right now!
IShallUseFire! You should read a history book before you comment
Thanasis Bounos Why? What did I do wrong?
IShallUseFire! cuz its true
sWifteruniTe He wasn't attempting to say it wasn't true, he was trying to say that it's a good idea to steal for a fantasy book.
also sounds like something that would fit in One Piece
So your telling me that ancient people could build a better ship than we could a few decades ago.
Wow, that's depressing
Mega King Pokemon that was a metaphor, and he titanic only sunk because it hit an ice berg
Bob Bobington it wasn't sunk by iceberg it was sunk by the Rothschild family that had to kill 3 major CEO'S that refused the Reserved bank
actually in ancient Greece they had discovered a lot of things (eg about engineering and astronomy) that even know we don't know how they could do that .
im assuming it was the equivalent of a titanic at that time defiantly not nearly close to the size of the titanic
+Paulo Khayat at least it didnt sink xD
Archimedes : Now I see how icebergs float
Titanic : Well, I couldn't
Well an iceberg partially floats on the sea because of it's relatively low specific gravity than it's reference subject (water).
3:48 .. you actually said the most famous word of the year 2020
Then a few decades later, the Romans came; they burned Syracuse to the ground and murdered Archimedes. The end. = (
They didn't mean to kill him though
BosonCollider That's just Archimedean propaganda! I'm still voting for Nero; he has a vision for the future that'll make life better for everybody, starting with every street being paved with gold.
The Simpsons already showed that the streets being paved with gold can be a real problem.
BosonCollider Horay?....
FallenEpic
Archimedes was unfortunate enough to live during interesting times, including a major European war (the second punic war) that would kill more people than any other in the next 1800 years. At least he didn't live to see Corinth burned to the ground. = /
Brilliant and patient work. Thanks to the creators.
taking about video or the ship?
Pranay Karani same question
I love the design of the ship, especially the Atlas part, but that's just because I'm Greek myth nerd, but still though, that thing is awesome, even by today's standards!
Agreed...
I'm learning AND being entertained at the same time !
Guessing the reasoning of the romans was not "Holy shit this is awesome! Our emperor would love it!" but rather "lol! Look at that idiot ship! That thing will never float, burn it down boys, should look epic!"
Yeah because a ship so powerful and elegant would be dismissed by the Romans... At least they would try to capture it.
@@Jake007123 The romans were kinda.... ehhh...
They actually wanted him to make ships for them when they conquered Syracuse. Unfortunately a Roman recognizes him as a general that killed many romans and stabbed him.
@@diepssuarez2676 maybe that's Biggus Dickus, his head is a bit crooked on the left side, that's why he stabbed Archimedes
@@KB-pe1ej And after that he is great friend to the emperor? Nah he would dismiss him if not hang.
What an amazing ship! Was it ever described why it only sailed once? And is there any remnants of the ship still left?
Jawad Ahmad It was made of wood. It rotted away quite fast because you know... water and wood is not a good combination for longevity.
PirateTHESteam1
Well, if it rotted away after a few hundred years, you certainly wouldn't have time to sail it more than once.
Mark The Gr8 ...
I think he answerd why it dosnt remain today :)
TheJorjor111
Bad humor or not, it was a joke :p.
When you hear corona when you are in 2020
wheres the funny?

You don't understand, Because Corona means Crown in Spanish.
Future time traveler here.. Uhhh spoilers.. We all barely survived
BEST ANIMATION WITH GREATER UNDERSTANDING !!!
WOW !!IT WAS AMAZING...................
Everyone asking why it was the "First and only voyage". Just read the replies of the other comments! Or just let me tell you, the Romans destroyed it when they came.
Are you Persian?
at least it managed to complete the maiden voyage unlike titanic more than 2000 years later
WOW so it did sail!?? I thought the video was going to end saying that he proved it was impossible. I didn't expect it to actually make it.
yes it did. that's how large ships actually sail in the sea even now. archimedes principle dude.
I don't know if it was largee than the Titanic but if it is, i would be like: WTF???!!!
larger*
+Vincent Cardona
I think its
the same size
cuz...if it was bigger
maybe those who made the Titanic made a BIGGER one to beat them ancient workers and be like "WE HAVE EVOLVED!!!"
(XDDD
this is not meant to insult anything
its just my opinion)
No, it was not nearly that big, but for it's time it was probably more impressive.
Wait this thing actually existed? And I've never heard about it?! This seems like quite the feat of engineering, and yet no mention in school?
I answered in my Chemistry class that Archimedes' eureka moment involved building a ship that would not sink. My teacher was looking for the 'king and his silver crown' answer.
Hope that she'll see this video too.
I imagine seeing something like this back then would have been like seeing a helicarrier today.
Rodrigo Ugarte what ever that is (too lazy too look it up)
Heli, as in helicopter, because it has helixes, that keep it floating.
And carrier, as in an airship carrier.
It's an airship carrier with rotating blades that make it fly basically...
Please don't take pride in ignorance, and less so in apathy.
aircraft carrier that floats/flies
I love those damn drawings.
finally after researching and watching countless videos about buoyancy, i finally understood about it after watching this video. thank god.
I enjoyed the animator's decision to make the King Syracuse's hair in the shape of Sicily. Nice inside joke.
CONGRATULATIONS
Excellent depiction and accurate historically.
When I was little, dad used to tell me that Archimedes sat down in the bath and then cried "Eureka", and everybody thought it meant "ouch! I burned myself!"
3:52 I didn’t know our Yubi-Stealing Korone Inugami was a Greek word.
One of my favorite TED Ed videos of all time
This crazy thing was actually built?
+Nebojsa Galic Yes, that's the point. Archimedes principle is still in use today with modern gigantic ships. If it wasn't for him (or someone like him) coming up with how buoyancy worked you wouldn't have modern tankers, aircraft carriers, luxury cruise ships, etc.
All modern large ships are built based on his concept after it was proven with that ship.
+Vincent Beers I can’t believe how crazy big that is.
So cool! I can't believe they wanted to put that much stuff!
Best story of Archimedes' Principle I ever watched. Fantastic. Thanks. I hope there would be more Archimedes stories.
"Failure wouldn't have been a pleasant option for Archimedes, so he took on the problem." Great logic.
Starting at 2:58 there are few mistakes.
First if it displaced 4000 tons of water the ship will not float. Water is displaced because the ship is unter the water.
A ship of 2000 tons, will displace a max of 2000 tons of water.
When it displace a 1000 tons of water the boat will be half way under the water and it will flow.
And finally at 3:00 when the water is displaced, it splits more water on the floor. The flow of the water is the other way around.
But I like TED.
Bro....no
I actually said 'Oh thank gods," when the narrator said it was like the titanic, but without the sinking.
"The ship did successfully reach its destination of Alexandria (though it was not called Alexandria at the time). The ship was beached by the shore, a dock built around it and it was used as a building on the river. After that point, it is never mentioned in historical text again.

BEAUTIFUL ANIMATION WITH SHARING KNOWLEDGE
People in 2015: Alright nice educational video.
2016: Still it's educational
2017: Informative
2018: Already watched it
2019: Meh, anything new you have?
UA-cam recommending in 2020:
People: 🤔......
People After 3 mins: CORONA!!
Thank you Archimedes for helping Leo Valdez. Team Leo!!!!!!!
The irony of me watching this in 2020 when Corona is at its peak
Sammy Jay in quarantine and addicted to these myth videos.
Now?
*Except the sinking*
I just laughed out loud🤣🤣..
I could watch history all day if u guys make history this much interesting..
And one thing..I just LOVE the narrator's voice😍
Even if I am greek, I really enjoy these videos and the stories. I watch them again and again!
You must be beautiful
I was like 10 when I put something in a cup full of water and realized its volume submerged was being equally displaced.
Too bad Archimedes beat me by over 2000 fucking years...
Can someone explain the concept at 3:00? I feel like they made a mistake. I think the graphic of the ship sinking/floating is reversed. Why would displacing more water allow it to float? If you displace more water, you take up more weight. It’s the reason the water in your bath rises when you get in. Pls help.
Here in India they had an alpenliebe lollipop ad involving Archimedes in the bathtub seven years ago.
Just imagine if a 2000-ton ancient sailing ship were to be fitted with wheels... now THAT will be a real job for Archimedes!
Archimedes was building a ship but accidentally made corona 🙄😂
Thank you for helping me understand the concept of archimides principle better.
It sounds like this thing was the BCE times version of the Titanic.
Okay, the video said it a few minutes after prompting me to think it.
i'm about to say bad things to you.
who comments on a video while watching it?!
Imagine being assigned a certain task and, in the process... you accidentally made an engineering breakthrough.
That's the sort of thing humans can do when offline and free to think.
A giant expensive ship that will only sail once.
Where will we put our cat photos?
Ok boomer
Brilliant Mind. The hardest part was to actually prove and compute what he discovered. Amazing!
Thanks for this information TED-Ed I never knew those facts!
Hey... the graphic which describes the king being happy or unhappy based on the displacement of the water... I think it's backwards. If the boat displaces 4000 tons of water, it should sink. 1000 and it should float well. If you think of the word displaced as "moved out of the way" and think of the water being moved out of the way, it is moved because the boat takes the water's place. So to displace 4000 tons means the boat had to go down into the water FURTHER to move that much water... Or do I have something backward? We do really enjoy your lesson and the neat way it is presented. Keep it up!
Evana F read your comment again, but slowly...
Evana F yes I had the same doubt! Think of a ship floating just above the water. It wouldn't have displaced any water. While a ship that sank completely would have displaced water equal to its volume (but not same weight).
But it didn't answer the question. Will it sink or sail? Math is nice but unless that ship got to Egypt it doesn't matter much.
People: *thank to Archimedes*
Archimedes: *savage level 169%
Story of archimedes and Issac newton make sense. I once observed a ball bounce, suddenly dawn on me the 'real' meaning behind math concepts. Matter of fact, I grew to appreciate and enjoy mathematic more at that moment. My dissatisfaction of education system stems from the lack of understanding of the purpose; how does this relate? In my eyes, the grading system at time get in the way of learning.There's a massive difference in students / teachers: one is satisfied just how it's, other want to know how and why. Here rest the difference between geniuses and your average Joe. Concepts should be learned first, then come theory. A person can talk about theory all day, but if he's unable to give practical evidence to the observable eye, it does not matter, for bunker Joey can't relate, therefore real life examples should be provided, then theory. In this manner, this person understand the theory - for he have observed it in real life; like from my personal observation of ball bouncing up, then went down. The same principle used in rocket ship.
In my eyes, intelligent is not necessary how much one know, social ability or even his impressive memory recalling ability, rather it's the fire within the person; curiosity.
Breath taking illustrations! Thank you for the aesthetics and clarity.

I agree

But me again opening it
It's why a ship full of air floats, but if you fill it with water, it will sink. In fact, you can calculate exactly how much water you can put on a boat to sink to exacting precision.
Do you think greeks or arabs first do science?
Eureka! Suddenly pops-up in my mind, just like Archimedes.
Hi TED ED , PLS CAN U POST MORE AND GOOD STORIES LIKE IT
It sailed once and then what? Did it sit somewhere and rot, burn, what? Has anyone found remnants of it?
It was burned by the romans
+GDM That had to suck
. . . . Well shit . . .
It was made out of wood, wood doesn't last. Unless off course is buried in the tomb of a pharaoh.
*slow clap* Well done Rome.
4:17 Woah!!! This thing actually existed?! With all the "would have been" talk, I was expecting at the end it was gonna be like, "But it didn't work out in the end. Too ambitious." But not the case! This thing was MASSIVE!
3:56 He had no idea that this word will be the most feared upon in 2020 and 2021
Does anyone know why it took so long for people to firmly adopt Archimedes' Principle? I mean I recall that it took an (Oxford I think) scholar to row around in a boat made of rock until people accepted that non-wooden things will float. But that was around two thousand years later, why did nobody build a metal ship earlier?
Because i'm pretty sure metal was expensive at the time.
metal is expensive, pretty much hard to find, and is not the best option. meanwhile, woods available everywhere, lighter, cheaper, easier to work with, and can last pretty long with proper care.
Also moulding metals was difficult and rust proof metals was still difficult to be made ...
I don't think most people had faith in metal ships. They probably thought that it would be so heavy that they'd sink, which would be proven wrong way later.
King Hieron to Archimedes: here find a way to make an ancient cruise ship
Excellent explanation of displacement and why iron ships float. I didn't know about the "Cruise Ship" of Archimedes design.

Ted: corona
Me: virus!
Oh, hello there.
China: *DeAd*
thats creepy because the video was made on march 13 which is exactly 1 year ago
Lol
DEMONETIZED
Another wonderful story behind an interesting formula
So basically...the weight of the base portion of the ship, has to be equivalent or higher than the top portion of the boat to stay afloat? Right?
Indiana Jones brought me here
same.. 😂😂😂
Damn, imagine designing a ship that awesome only for it to be used once
2:38 proof why we always have good idea while take the bath
What about the stability of the boat? How did he calculate that?
What’s happened to the ship now? Is it like dismantled or something?
When i think of Archimedes...
I think of the bird.
We are having the same thought!
*Birds!*
I choose to believe both are 100% true, because the idea of one of the greatest minds in history streaking through the city makes me smile.
They had really epic presents back then.
Archimedes was the only reason why i have to study buoyancy in science
The only reason why this got recommended to you 3:48
Time traveller arriving in 2020: why am I here?... a-and where's my corona?
Everyone in quarantine: wtf do you mean your corona
Those cannonballs were a pricey lot!
3:47 Wait, why all of TED-Ed story is beyond timeline???
Second: Corona, is the word Crown is Latin. Just how the Virus looks like. Every word we use is from Latin.
0:13 No I'm not thinking of that.
Archimedes. One of the greatest of all time!
Imagine working on a freelance project that requires you to make a breakthrough in the field of physics. That's like creating a new programming language just to build a website
So the boat is an ancient cruise ship?
3:48 : Did you say CORONA???
It is how to measure the volume of an irregular solid (of course, the length, width and height cannot be measured reliably). Water is an excellent fluid to use because of its specific gravity of 1.0 .
Anyone else think the intro music and this guy’s voice is relaxing?
