The glass is a diving bell. Physical experiments

Comments on the article
"Diving bell" is a large metal cap, which is lowered with the open side to the bottom of the reservoir for the performance of any work.
After lowering it into the water, the air contained in the cap is compressed and does not let water into this device. Only at the very bottom remains a little water. In such a bell, people can move and perform the work entrusted to them. Large chambers, for more complex work, are called caissons.
The breathing air for the occupants is supplied under high pressure to prevent water from entering the working space. People gradually get used to the increased pressure when entering the caisson, and when leaving, they also gradually get used to normal atmospheric pressure.
Take a glass and a plate. Pour water into a plate and place a glass turned upside down in it. The air in the glass will compress, and the bottom of the plate under the glass will be filled with very little water. Before you put a glass in a plate, put a cork on the water. It will show how little water is left at the bottom.

Artificial leather for touch emulation
15.04.2024
In a modern technology world where distance is becoming increasingly commonplace, maintaining connection and a sense of closeness is important. Recent developments in artificial skin by German scientists from Saarland University represent a new era in virtual interactions. German researchers from Saarland University have developed ultra-thin films that can transmit the sensation of touch over a distance. This cutting-edge technology provides new opportunities for virtual communication, especially for those who find themselves far from their loved ones. The ultra-thin films developed by the researchers, just 50 micrometers thick, can be integrated into textiles and worn like a second skin. These films act as sensors that recognize tactile signals from mom or dad, and as actuators that transmit these movements to the baby. Parents' touch to the fabric activates sensors that react to pressure and deform the ultra-thin film. This ... >>
Petgugu Global cat litter
15.04.2024
Taking care of pets can often be a challenge, especially when it comes to keeping your home clean. A new interesting solution from the Petgugu Global startup has been presented, which will make life easier for cat owners and help them keep their home perfectly clean and tidy. Startup Petgugu Global has unveiled a unique cat toilet that can automatically flush feces, keeping your home clean and fresh. This innovative device is equipped with various smart sensors that monitor your pet's toilet activity and activate to automatically clean after use. The device connects to the sewer system and ensures efficient waste removal without the need for intervention from the owner. Additionally, the toilet has a large flushable storage capacity, making it ideal for multi-cat households. The Petgugu cat litter bowl is designed for use with water-soluble litters and offers a range of additional ... >>
The attractiveness of caring men
14.04.2024
The stereotype that women prefer "bad boys" has long been widespread. However, recent research conducted by British scientists from Monash University offers a new perspective on this issue. They looked at how women responded to men's emotional responsibility and willingness to help others. The study's findings could change our understanding of what makes men attractive to women. A study conducted by scientists from Monash University leads to new findings about men's attractiveness to women. In the experiment, women were shown photographs of men with brief stories about their behavior in various situations, including their reaction to an encounter with a homeless person. Some of the men ignored the homeless man, while others helped him, such as buying him food. A study found that men who showed empathy and kindness were more attractive to women compared to men who showed empathy and kindness. ... >>
Random news from the Archive Cardio watch will report an attack
16.02.2014
Scientists position the device as a personal device that measures the deviation of blood pressure from the norm, pulse, and fixes the presence or absence of arrhythmia. When the device detects a critical situation, it sends messages to relatives and doctors using the built-in GSM modem.
It is reported that scientists are positioning the device as a personal device that measures the deviation of blood pressure from the norm, pulse, fixes the presence or absence of arrhythmia. When the device detects a critical situation, it sends messages to relatives and doctors using the built-in GSM modem.
"We want to create a device for continuous use, for example, in the form of a watch, a bracelet. This will allow us to "monitor" the state without any additional human actions for 24 hours a day," said the head of the development team, university teacher Dmitry Medvedev.
According to him, the advantage of the shape of the watch is that it is close to the radial artery, so in the lower part of the case you can place sensors that allow you to measure pressure and pulse, as well as an acceleration sensor - an accelerometer that allows you to "filter" motor activity, which gives an error in measurements. An information display will be located on the front side of the device.
According to Medvedev, the method of measuring the speed of propagation of a pulse wave, used in the development, needs to be improved. "We have to solve a number of problems, for example, to separate the useful signal when taking an electrocardiogram from the accompanying noise, because the signal-to-noise ratio during the measurement is very low," he said.
The press service specifies that scientists are going to create a working prototype within a year. The developers are also thinking about how to introduce the device into the healthcare system.
