The origin of the law of buoyancy

A king in ancient Greece ordered a gold crown to be made, and asked the scientist Archimedes to measure the gold content in it, but he could not damage the crown. Archimedes was also very embarrassed. One day, while taking a shower, he saw part of his body floating in the water. Suddenly I realized that I could use the buoyancy principle to measure the gold content of a gold crown. So he shouted happily: "I discovered it!" He ran home without even bothering to put on his clothes.

How did Archimedes measure the gold content of the crown?

Archimedes placed the crown and the same weight of pure gold in two basins filled with water. He compared the water overflowing from the two basins and found that the basin with the crown overflowed more water than the other basin. This shows that the volume of the crown is larger than that of pure gold of the same weight, so it proves that other metals are mixed into the crown.
