Then came into action the claw, which consisted of a crane-like arm from which hung a huge metal hook. When the grapple was dropped on an enemy ship the arm would swing upwards, lifting the bow of the ship out of the water and causing water to enter the stern.]]> 2021-05-27 07:08:58 UTC https://padlet.com/mocardenal/rzsuzdgdbytusfmr/wish/1564279253 mocardenal https://padlet.com/mocardenal/rzsuzdgdbytusfmr/wish/1564282023 Since water cannot be compressed, the crown, when submerged, would displace an amount of water equal to its own volume. By dividing the weight of the crown by the volume of water displaced, the density of the crown could be obtained. The density of the crown would be less than the density of gold if other less dense metals had been added to it.

It was rotated by hand, and could also be used to transfer water from bodies of low water into irrigation canals. The screw is still used today to pump liquids and semi-fluid solids, such as coal, ice and grain.

Through reductio ad absurdum, he was able to answer problems by means of approximations with a certain degree of precision, specifying the limits between which the correct answer lay. This technique is called the exhaustive method. And it was the system for approximating the value of the number pi.
