Focus Description:

Invite anyone to try, while sitting on a bottle, to light another candle from one. To do this, a person must sit on an empty bottle and take a lit candle in one hand, and an unlit one in the other. You need to sit with both legs stretched forward.

Focus secret:

It seems like a very easy task, but no one can do it.

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 ... >>

All ultrabooks with Windows 8 - touchpads 20.09.2013

During Intel's annual developer forum, senior president Kirk Skaugen said that 70% of ultrabooks (thin laptops that meet Intel's specifications) currently sold at retail are equipped with touch screens. After that, he added that soon 100% of ultrabooks sold will have capacitive displays.

Windows 8 touch ultrabooks fall into three main categories: standard folding devices, hybrid solutions with swivel screens, and devices that turn into real tablets with detachable keyboards. The first and last category are the most common.

Although ultrabooks still occupy a smaller share of the Windows laptop market, there has been a recent surge in sales of touchscreen mobile PCs. Stephen Baker, vice president of industry analysis at NPD, said, "In August, touchscreen laptops fared better than any other month."

In August, touch devices accounted for 30% of all Windows 8 laptops in August, he said. According to NPD, this is a big increase from the first three months of the year, when touch solutions accounted for only 10% of Windows 8 laptops sold. In August, sales picked up markedly thanks to a good number of touchscreen laptops under $500. Mr. Baker is also increasingly optimistic about the growing popularity of touchscreen laptops during the Christmas sales season.

Intel is actively promoting touch screens, realizing that only such devices can fully unlock the potential of the new Windows 8 interface and, accordingly, increase device sales. In January, Intel introduced new requirements for ultrabooks based on the latest generation of its Haswell chips, which included the requirement for a touchscreen.

"Intel has added touch support to the ultrabook specification, so by definition an ultrabook today should have a touchscreen," said IDC analyst Bob O'Donnell. He also added that while the outlook for retail sales of touch notebooks is now increasingly bright, the share of such devices in the notebook market has remained below 10% for almost a year. Mr. O'Donnell stressed: "Yes, numbers are improving quite rapidly now, but previous slow growth could force IDC to lower its forecasts for the year."
