    The important information thats missing is that Archimedes submerged a piece of gold *of the same weight as the crown* into water, and found that it displaced less water than the crown, proving the latter wasn't made of pure gold. Only by "cancelling out" weight, density can be measured this way.

    MASSIVE error in this video (pun intended). This video explicitly states @4:02 a crown of pure gold would spill out a different volume than one that was not made of pure gold ... that is factually wrong. Anything that sinks, will spill out only it's volume. Please correct this. Check out the rock in the boat problem. Floating doesn't displace the volume of an object ... sinking does. Buoyant force is the weight of volume of the fluid not the weight of the object. Buoyant force is therefore a constant of the fluid, a constant of the gravity associated with Earth, and the volume of that fluid that is displaced ... none of it needs to know the density of the object.

    I'm not convinced at 3:25, that there is a actually a relationship between the weight of water and the weight of his body. Isn't the relationship between the volume of water displaced, and the volume of his body? Seeing as the human body is denser than water (without air in lungs), then the amount of water displaced would not in fact weight be as much as the part of his body that was submerged. If you had a manikin made from lead, and submerged the same volume of it, then wouldn't it displace the exact same amount of water?
    Am I right in saying that this video is badly explained as it doesn't explain in this inevitable question that someone is going to ask? They should also have explain - in terms of buoyant force - why some objects sink and others don't.

    This video is incorrect. We have two parts to the principle. An immersed object will ...
    1) displace an amount of water equal to it's immersed volume.
    2) feel an upward buoyant force equal to it's weight.
    The narrator has conflated these two facts.

    Actually, heavy objects and light objects may have the same volume, their weight can be different. So same volume of water will spill if its real gold or even if it is plastic. Sorry Science ABC, wrong. The answer is that the real gold will sink faster than other materials even though they have the same volume Gold is really heavy!

      you have to consider that the crown made of gold, silver or whatever have exactly the same weight. they will have different volume for a same weight; then you can understand why crown made of gold will spill less water than silver crown.

      Yes, the issue is the video makes some assumptions that it does not make clear. So when it says something like "A crown made of gold will displace less water than a crown made of silver" what the author has assumed but not made clear is that the two crowns weigh the same.

      @@wadalzain5 The density only affects the amount of displaced water when the mass of two objects are the same. Otherwise, the volume would be the factor deciding the displaced water. This is because X x Y = k (k is mass, x & y is volume and density) which is an inverse relationship, meaning as one factor increases the other decreases. That's the only way that density affects the volume, which is when the mass is the same. So if block A and B had the same mass, but block A was denser, then yeah the volume would undoubtedly decrease, making the displaced water less (I wrote a lot to make sure there are no misunderstandings).

      Because water is "incompressible" that means that the density of the water doesn't change as you go down, and so the buoyant force doesnt change once the object is fully submerged. This of course is just an assumption in fluid mechanics though so theoretically if you were to go deep enough..

      @@Shahram19702010 open the bottom of that tube and stick it in the water. Viola, the rise in height of the water level due to displaced volume increases the pressure at the bottom of the capillary tube so the level in the capillary tube rises in proportion. You only have to compare two samples that weigh the same. Use gold dust as a counter balance. So you just add gold dust to the water till it brings it up to the same level as the item you are testing ... if you have to add more gold dust to get to the same level, then the proportion of that added, is it's lack of purity. The difference in the tube level at the point all the counterbalanced weight of dust is added is the density difference. The capillary tube doesn't have to be that sophisticated to achieve accuracy to the tenths of a percent. it's just a matter of dividing a pile into a number of equally balanced piles. Say you counter balanced the item with a quantity of gold dust, then divide that into 2 of 50%, take pile one and divide in half to 25%, then to 12.5% and so on till you get the desired accuracy where you have two piles of the same weight. The smallest division represents the accuracy.
      It could also be done by just measuring the difference in the height of the column in the capillary tube. if you just plunk in the gold dust then lower the level back to initial condition and then plunk in the item ... the difference in height as a percentage change gets you there ... Hope that helps. Yikes, that was a lot of edits. What's simple in my mind's eye is sometimes hard to translate to words. I also imagined a u-shaped tube with each end in a separate equal volume containers and just plunk all the stuff in at once and note the water levels in each side of the tube.
