King Caesar told everybody to travel to Bethlehem, so then Mary and Joseph settled on an adventure to Bethlehem. When they got to Bethlehem they went to the innkeeper and asked him if they could stay with him, but then the man said sorry he can’t allow them to stay at his house. Joseph said that his wife Mary was going to have a baby, The man stopped and think for a while he said to the couples that they can stay in the stable.

What is Buoyancy?

What is Buoyancy?

A Long time ago in Syracuse, Ancient Greece There was a  Great mathematician named Archimedes. One day when he was taking a bath He discovered something life changing. When he got in some water got displaced and it overflowed over the bath tub.

Archimedes's discovery got him thinking he was so excited that he ran through the streets without any clothes on shouting “Eureka Eureka! this meant I have found it in Greek.

Archimedes figured out if you put something in water and it is lighter than the amount of water being displaced,the object will float.

This is known as buoyancy or the Archimedes  principle, so if the object can float it is buoyant.
