Directory / Spectacular tricks and their clues

Focus Description:

For the trick, you will need a pre-prepared small black bottle with a rounded bottom, similar to a flask, 5 cm high. You demonstrate to the audience how it itself only holds perpendicularly and does not change its position.

Give the bottle to the audience for inspection. Then show that you can easily defeat her stubbornness: make her take a horizontal position and even stand at an angle. At the same time, she does not lend herself to anyone else.

Focus secret:

The bottle is made of papier-mâché or other lightweight material, painted black; its bottom has the shape of a hemisphere, facing the convex part down.

The center of gravity is at the bottom of the bottle, so it always stands upright. The secret lies in a piece of iron wire long and large enough to fit easily into a bottle. First, you hide the wire between your thumb and forefinger.

After the bottle is inspected by the audience, you imperceptibly lower a wire into it, which balances the position of the hemisphere or leads to any position. After showing that the bottle obeys you, casually turn it upside down and hold the wire again in your hand, and pass the bottle to the audience.

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 ... >>

Self-healing concrete 19.06.2021

In Massachusetts (USA), researchers at the Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI) have invented a concrete that can self-fill cracks of a few millimeters in 24 hours. Concrete is the most widely used man-made building material in the world, but it is brittle and prone to cracking under the influence of water, thermal changes, stress, road salt and other factors.

To produce a new type of material, Worcester scientists used an enzyme found in red blood cells - carbonic anhydrase. This made concrete four times stronger than traditional concrete. Self-healing is made possible by the fact that carbonic anhydrase reacts with carbon dioxide from the air, resulting in the formation of calcium carbonate crystals that fill cracks in concrete, strengthening the structure.

The new method significantly extends the life of concrete structures and eliminates the need for costly repairs or replacements. In addition, the invention will significantly reduce the amount of carbon dioxide emissions harmful to the environment.

"If tiny cracks can be automatically repaired as soon as they appear, they won't turn into big problems that require repair or replacement. It sounds like science fiction, but it's a real solution to a significant problem in the construction industry," the scientists say.
