Focus Description:

A real magician, of course, must have a magic wand. The easiest way to make it out of wood. The diameter of the stick should be 10-15 mm, and the length should be 20-30 cm. It must be pasted over with black glossy paper, and the ends at a distance of 5 cm should be white. Some tricks will require a hollow magic wand. Using a round stick as a template, you can glue a thick tube out of drawing paper or thin cardboard. Of course, and it must be painted exactly like the first stick.

The performer greets the audience and says: "My main assistant is a magic wand, and it is always with me. But it is very burdensome to carry it in your pocket, so I hide it in a matchbox." Next, he shows an ordinary matchbox. The audience laughs, no one can believe that a long magic wand can fit in a matchbox. The magician opens the box and takes out a long wooden stick.

Secret of focus

At the matchbox drawer, cut off one of the narrow walls (Fig. a), slide the drawer into the case and hide the box in your pocket. Stick the stick into the left sleeve of the jacket so that it lies on the forearm, fix it with a rubber pharmacy ring in the wrist area (Fig. b). During the demonstration, you take out a matchbox and transfer it to your left hand. Spectators should not see that one of the walls is missing. Shifting the box to your left hand, you put it on the end of the stick.

Focus The appearance of a magic wand

Open the box and take out the stick from it (fig. c). The box closes and hides in a pocket.

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 ... >>

Smart bracelet will track the composition of sweat 07.02.2016

The new portable sweat analyzer can detect four types of chemicals at once and measure body temperature at the same time.

Our visit to the doctor most often begins with a blood test. No doubt, blood is an excellent indicator of the state of health, and the further, the more diseases can be recognized by the composition of various cells and molecules floating in the bloodstream.

But we have another biological fluid in which a lot of biochemical information can also be found - this is sweat. In addition to water and simple ions, it also contains complex biomolecules, up to proteins, and even now sweat analysis allows diagnosing certain diseases, finding out what substances a person has taken, choosing a convenient exercise regimen, etc. In addition, sweat has one important advantage - for it you do not need to poke something sharp into a finger or a vein. However, until now, in order to make an analysis of sweat, it had to be collected in a special container in order to then give it to a specialist.

With a new device developed by the staff of the University of California at Berkeley, everything will become faster and easier - Wei Gao (Wei Gao) and colleagues have created an electronic analyzer that can be worn on the arm like a bracelet, and which measures body temperature and the chemical composition of sweat in real time . The electronic bracelet is able to determine the amount of sodium and potassium ions, as well as glucose and lactic acid (lactate), and the received data is immediately transmitted to the smartphone.

By themselves, portable sweat analyzers are not new for a long time, but other similar devices can only monitor one substance, one molecule. If we have several sensors at once, this increases the reliability of information: for example, if the level of an ion has dropped sharply, then by other parameters you can tell exactly what the matter is: is it the ion itself, or is it that sweating has stopped, or our gadget just broke.

Obviously, the smart bracelet will be in particular demand among those involved in sports: by the concentration of ions, you can - even without getting off the simulator - understand whether you should take a break and drink water to prevent dehydration and muscle spasm, temperature tracking will prevent overheating , and lactic acid levels may indicate poor circulation. But, of course, such a device will also be useful for general medical purposes, especially if its authors manage, as they plan, to increase the number of molecules that their gadget can detect.
