How fast do babies grow?

The female blue whale also gives birth to the heaviest cubs - up to 2 tons. They grow faster than all others, adding 30 kg per day in the first six months of life! During the first 7 months, their mass increases from 2 to 24 tons, that is, 12 times!

The kittens are also growing fast, doubling their weight in a week. It takes 125 days for a human baby to do this.

What legal term in ancient times simply meant a piece of wood?

The Latin word codex meant "piece of wood". It was on wooden boards smeared with wax that the first books were made in the format familiar to us, and not in the form of a scroll. Later, instead of wood, the Romans began to use parchment for codices. In the 3rd century, a collection of imperial constitutions was published in the form of a code. Today in Russian the word "code" is used specifically for the names of codes of laws.

Machine for thinning flowers in gardens 02.05.2024

In modern agriculture, technological progress is developing aimed at increasing the efficiency of plant care processes. The innovative Florix flower thinning machine was presented in Italy, designed to optimize the harvesting stage. This tool is equipped with mobile arms, allowing it to be easily adapted to the needs of the garden. The operator can adjust the speed of the thin wires by controlling them from the tractor cab using a joystick. This approach significantly increases the efficiency of the flower thinning process, providing the possibility of individual adjustment to the specific conditions of the garden, as well as the variety and type of fruit grown in it. After testing the Florix machine for two years on various types of fruit, the results were very encouraging. Farmers such as Filiberto Montanari, who has used a Florix machine for several years, have reported a significant reduction in the time and labor required to thin flowers. ... >>

Advanced Infrared Microscope 02.05.2024

Microscopes play an important role in scientific research, allowing scientists to delve into structures and processes invisible to the eye. However, various microscopy methods have their limitations, and among them was the limitation of resolution when using the infrared range. But the latest achievements of Japanese researchers from the University of Tokyo open up new prospects for studying the microworld. Scientists from the University of Tokyo have unveiled a new microscope that will revolutionize the capabilities of infrared microscopy. This advanced instrument allows you to see the internal structures of living bacteria with amazing clarity on the nanometer scale. Typically, mid-infrared microscopes are limited by low resolution, but the latest development from Japanese researchers overcomes these limitations. According to scientists, the developed microscope allows creating images with a resolution of up to 120 nanometers, which is 30 times higher than the resolution of traditional microscopes. ... >>

Air trap for insects 01.05.2024

Agriculture is one of the key sectors of the economy, and pest control is an integral part of this process. A team of scientists from the Indian Council of Agricultural Research-Central Potato Research Institute (ICAR-CPRI), Shimla, has come up with an innovative solution to this problem - a wind-powered insect air trap. This device addresses the shortcomings of traditional pest control methods by providing real-time insect population data. The trap is powered entirely by wind energy, making it an environmentally friendly solution that requires no power. Its unique design allows monitoring of both harmful and beneficial insects, providing a complete overview of the population in any agricultural area. “By assessing target pests at the right time, we can take necessary measures to control both pests and diseases,” says Kapil ... >>

Wireless charging via Wi-Fi 27.05.2021

A team of researchers from the National University of Singapore and Japan's Tohoku University have been able to convert Wi-Fi signals into electricity.

Their invention is not theoretical, but tested and proven to be effective. The technology for using wireless network signals to power various devices is based on a new chip capable of generating microwaves with low output power.

For a long time there were problems with the scalability of the technology, since there was a critical lack of power. The solution was a scheme in which eight STOs are connected in series.

During the experiments, it was possible to achieve stable operation of the LED at 1,6 V for a minute after charging the capacitor for only 5 seconds. The array was capable of taking 2,4GHz radio waves generated by Wi-Fi signals and turning them into a DC voltage.
