Directory / Spectacular tricks and their clues

First option:

Focus Description:

Have someone stack three dice in a row. By looking only at the top face of the column, you can immediately determine the sum of the points on the faces on which the cubes touch and on the lowest face.

Focus secret:

You need to subtract from 21 the number of points on the top of the column.

The second option:

Focus Description:

For the trick you need 3 dice.

"Fakir" turns away; someone in the audience rolls 3 dice on the table. "Fakir" invites the public to calculate the sum of points on the upper faces of all three cubes, then pick up any one cube and add the number of points on the lower face of this cube to the previous amount. Further, the "fakir" offers to roll the cube that was raised again, and add the number of points of its upper face to the previously received amount. After that, the "fakir" turns around, reminds the "public" that he does not know which die was thrown a second time, picks up all 3 dice, shakes them (for mystery) and, to the surprise of the "public", "guesses" the final result of the produced arithmetic operations.

Focus secret:

Before taking the cubes in hand, you should add the points on their upper faces and add 7. The resulting amount will be the one that must be "guessed".

The third option:

Focus Description:

The magician gives three cubes, paper, a pen and offers, by arbitrarily placing the cubes in a row, to make a three-digit number from the number of points on the top face of each cube. Then three digits must be assigned to this number, indicating the number of points on the corresponding lower faces of the dice. The resulting six-digit number must be divided by 111 and reported to the "magician" the result.

It communicates very quickly in what order the cubes were placed.

Focus secret:

Subtract 7 from the declared quotient, divide the difference by 9. The numbers of the resulting quotient will show the initial arrangement of the cubes.

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 ... >>

The threat of space debris to the Earth's magnetic field 01.05.2024

More and more often we hear about an increase in the amount of space debris surrounding our planet. However, it is not only active satellites and spacecraft that contribute to this problem, but also debris from old missions. The growing number of satellites launched by companies like SpaceX creates not only opportunities for the development of the Internet, but also serious threats to space security. Experts are now turning their attention to the potential implications for the Earth's magnetic field. Dr. Jonathan McDowell of the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics emphasizes that companies are rapidly deploying satellite constellations, and the number of satellites could grow to 100 in the next decade. The rapid development of these cosmic armadas of satellites can lead to contamination of the Earth's plasma environment with dangerous debris and a threat to the stability of the magnetosphere. Metal debris from used rockets can disrupt the ionosphere and magnetosphere. Both of these systems play a key role in protecting the atmosphere and maintaining ... >>

Solidification of bulk substances 30.04.2024

There are quite a few mysteries in the world of science, and one of them is the strange behavior of bulk materials. They may behave like a solid but suddenly turn into a flowing liquid. This phenomenon has attracted the attention of many researchers, and we may finally be getting closer to solving this mystery. Imagine sand in an hourglass. It usually flows freely, but in some cases its particles begin to get stuck, turning from a liquid to a solid. This transition has important implications for many areas, from drug production to construction. Researchers from the USA have attempted to describe this phenomenon and come closer to understanding it. In the study, the scientists conducted simulations in the laboratory using data from bags of polystyrene beads. They found that the vibrations within these sets had specific frequencies, meaning that only certain types of vibrations could travel through the material. Received ... >>

SEAGATE hard drives in TOSHIBA video recorders 18.09.2003

Seagate Technology announced that Toshiba, the largest player in the consumer electronics market, has selected Seagate Consumer Electronics hard drives for its RD-XS31 HDD&DVD recorder.

This is the industry's first DVD multi-drive video recorder. This Seagate hard drive will allow the RD-XS31 to record up to 104 hours of video. In addition, the HDD can be used as a buffer for later distillation of video to DVD-RAM, DVD-RW or DVD-R discs.
