Engaging, funny, and informative, Dick and Dom present the life and works of Archimedes of Syracuse. Using recreations of his experiments, expert explanations, startling examples and whacky cut-aways, the presenters explain Eureka!, buoyancy, the Archimedes screw, the odometer, and weaponry to defend Syracuse, including the heat-ray and the Archimedes claw.

14 questions for the 28-min film. Differentiated THREE ways!
