Random interesting fact from the Great Encyclopedia:

Who and how first showed that air has weight?

The first to do this was the great Italian physicist, mechanic and astronomer Galileo Galilei (1564-1642), and in two ways.

In the first, qualitative experiment, Galileo, having achieved by thermal rarefaction of air in a flask with a long neck, carefully closed with a cork, made sure that if this vessel was allowed to float in water, then it would sink less than if the air was not rarefied.

In other quantitative experiments, Galileo used a pump to pump excess air into a flask, in addition to that normally contained in it, and measure the increase in the weight of the flask. Using ingenious tricks, Galileo measured the volume of air pumped into the flask, and based on this result determined the ratio of the specific gravity of air to the specific gravity of water. He got a value of 1:400. If we compare this value with the true one (1:773) and take into account what means Galileo then had at his disposal, then the accuracy of his measurements seems remarkable.

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 ... >>

oily water 15.07.2004

The English company "Aqualider" has developed a new composition for extinguishing fires. This is "Fok-Stop" - a granular, highly hygroscopic polymer, like the one used in diapers.

When 0,1-0,2% polymer is added to water, a transparent, rather viscous mass is formed that can be pumped through a fire hose. Firefighters nicknamed this mass "greasy water." Unlike rapidly flowing water, it sticks to vertical burning surfaces and remains in place for a relatively long time, smothering the fire.

"Fok-Stop" is not dangerous for living organisms, does not pollute the environment (similar polymers are used in agriculture to retain moisture in the soil). The new composition is especially effective in forest fires, protecting tree trunks.

In England it is already used by 55 fire brigades. Interest was shown by Australia, Hong Kong; 15 European and 21 Latin American countries.
