Focus Description:

The magician invites the person to stand against the wall, put the right foot close to the wall, and the left foot at a distance of 10-15 cm from the right. The artist makes several passes towards the left knee of the subject and then announces that he has put his left knee into a hypnotic state so that it is completely exhausted. He invites the subject to slowly raise the left leg without changing the position of the legs.

The object tries, but it fails. For some reason, all the strength from the left knee was gone. Feeling terrible. Finally, the magician tells the participant to take a step forward, whereupon power returns to his knee and the hypnosis apparently ends.

Focus secret:

This is a very effective trick, and the best thing about it is that you can try it yourself, because hypnosis has nothing to do with it.

The man does not lean against the wall, he simply puts his right foot against the wall; hence the position is quite comfortable. But any attempt to slowly lift the left leg means that the weight must shift to the right leg. As soon as the object automatically tries to shift its weight, its right shoulder touches the wall and it cannot take a step; therefore, he cannot shift his weight to his right foot. He thinks he did it, but his left leg still supports some of his weight and so he can't lift it.

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 ... >>

Road traffic can exacerbate allergies 20.12.2018

A new study by American scientists has shown that air currents from heavy traffic can disperse ragweed seeds tens of meters from their starting location - a huge boost compared to the usual 1-meter seed travel radius from parent plants.

The researchers set up a field experiment to determine how far ragweed seeds travel on a busy road with fast moving cars compared to less busy roads. In each trial, they placed 100 seeds dyed with fluorescent paint along the edges of roads where they would normally fall, allowing moving vehicles to decide their fate. The scientists then returned with UV lamps to mark the new positions of the seeds.

Within 48 hours, the seeds moved to new locations. Most remained close to their original location. But air currents, due to heavy traffic, moved some of the seeds tens of meters: in the record case, this distance was 71 meters - about two-thirds of the length of an American football field. Even on roads with less traffic, the seeds were scattered over distances of up to 40 meters.

The researchers then mapped roadside ragweed sites for two years in a row to see how much ragweed populations increased in the direction of traffic. In the second year, the team registered twice as many seedlings in the direction of traffic, compared to the opposite direction, where the influence of cars was almost zero.

The study links the spread of an allergic plant species to traffic patterns for the first time. The results show that people suffering from seasonal allergies can be helped by carefully mowing roadside plants. But the right time to mow is just before the seeds are ripe, otherwise the mowers will spray them even further.
