This board game is based on a physical phenomenon already known to you: in any fast flow or jet, the pressure, compared to the surrounding calm environment, is lowered.

For the board game described here, you need to make two balls from cork (cork tree). Cut the cork in half, use a sharp knife to give these halves a spherical shape, and then grind them with emery cloth to make two balls with a diameter of 1,5 centimeters.

From a small plank and a wooden block or stick, make a stand 30 centimeters high. On top of it, strengthen the wire ring with a diameter of 3 centimeters, placing it horizontally. It remains to pick up two rubber tubes with an inner diameter of 4-5 millimeters and a length of 15-20 centimeters.

The game is as follows. It is necessary to strongly blow into the tube, bending up its opposite end, and at the same time toss a cork ball onto the air stream. Outside air pressure will not allow the ball to jump off the jet, and it, bouncing a little, will stay in the air above the end of the tube. You just need to keep blowing. As soon as you stop blowing, the ball will fall on the table.

The task of the players is to take turns making the ball fall from above into the ring on a standing stand. Failed to get in - give way to a partner. And if you hit, then you have the right to repeat the entry, trying once again to throw the ball into the ring.

Several people can take part in the game. Then it is necessary for all the players to give their pipes.

The game can be somewhat varied. For example, make another ring on the stand, placing it next to the first one. The ball should enter one ring from below and immediately fall into the second ring from above. You can arrange the rings one under the other and ensure that the ball passes through both rings in turn. At your discretion, this game can be played in different ways.

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 ... >>

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. ... >>
