Publisher's Synopsis
Liber Archimedis De Iis Quae Vehuntur In Aqua, Liber Primus, est opus scientiae mathematicae et mechanicae, quod auctore Archimede scriptum est. In hoc libro, Archimedes investigat proprietates corporum quae fluitant in aqua, cum demonstrationibus geometricis et rationibus. Liber primum tractat de principiis fluitationis et ponderum corporum in aqua, et de modo quo aqua sustinet corpora. In hoc libro, Archimedes quoque demonstrat principium Archimedis, quod ait: ""Corpus immersum in aqua expellit pondus aquae aequale ei, et corpus submersum in aqua accipit pondus aquae aequale ei."" Haec opera Archimedis est una ex principiis scientiae mechanicae et mathematicae, et adhuc habet magnam auctoritatem inter mathematicos et physicos.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
