Archimedes inventions changed the world because for example, we wouldn't be able to ship military cargo, or have Cruise ships due to this man. This man found out buoyancy which is covered in Archimedes principal. Have you ever wondered how big cargo ships float float? They float because the volume is more than the mass of the actual ship. That means that the density of the ship is lower. Now if the ship had more mass than volume, the boats would sink to the bottom of the ocean. Thank you Archimedes

∙ 11y agoArchimedes' discovery enabled much bigger boats and ships to be built and thus changed for ever how people all over the world could trade very large amounts of goods between their various countries. This international trade made it possible to improve both the wealth of their nations and the quality of people's social lives.
A technical answer
Archimedes' discovered that any object that floats in water displaces an amount of water that weighs exactly the same as the object's own weight, no matter how large it is. That discovery made it possible to build much bigger boats and ships.

Who said give you a place to stand on and you will move the world?
Archimedes
Why was Archimedes important to the world?
Archimedes is especially important for his discovery of the relation between the surface and volume of a sphere and its circumscribing cyclinder. He is known for his formulation of a hydrostatic principle (known as Archimedes' principle) and a device for raising water, still used in developing countries, known as the Archimedes screw.

Who wrote this quote Give you a lever and a place to stand and you can move the world?
According to Pappus of Alexandria, Archimedes' work on levers caused him to remark:'δῶς μοι πᾶ στῶ καὶ τὰν γᾶν κινάσω'which translates from Greek as:'Give me a place to stand on and I will move the world.'Therefore, the answer is Archimedes of Syracuse.
