Put a few pieces of marble or chalk in a bottle of wine (preferably champagne) and pour in dilute hydrochloric acid. Close the bottle with a cork (not too tight) and wrap it in a towel as a precaution.

In a few minutes, there will be a shot. The cork will fly up to the ceiling. In this experiment, you received carbon dioxide as a result of the interaction of marble and hydrochloric acid. In sparkling wines (for example, in champagne), carbon dioxide is obtained during the fermentation of the sugary substances contained in them.

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.

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. ... >>

Blue LEDs are dangerous for insects 27.10.2014

Scientists from New Zealand have found that the light of blue LEDs is detrimental to the ecosystem, because it attracts one and a half times more insects than the radiation of ordinary street lamps.

Recall: for the invention of blue LEDs in 2014, Japanese scientists received the Nobel Prize in Fiike.

Common street lighting systems in developed countries today tend to focus on sodium gas discharge lamps, which emit yellow light. At the same time, insects are more attracted to the blue light emitted by LEDs. Such light seems white to a person due to the phosphor layer, which "mixes" the whiteness to the blue LED radiation, but insects perceive the color of the lamp differently.

In order to most accurately compare the attractiveness of sodium lamps and LEDs to insects, Stephen Pawson (Stephen Pawson) and Martin Bader (Martin Bader) placed two different types of lights near large sheets of adhesive paper, leaving them at night in a field located in a rural area. In the morning, scientists found that LED lamps attracted 48% more flies, moths and other insects. Repeated experiments showed similar results. Regardless of the type of LED, the filters used and the manufacturer, all LED lamps attracted a lot of insects.

As a result, it was concluded that blue LEDs, for which the Nobel Prize in Physics for 2014 was awarded, upset the balance of the ecosystem and attract insects to cities from the countryside. Moreover, the use of LED lighting in seaports may lead to the expansion of invasive species (like the gypsy moth), scientists say.
