Focus Description:

The spectator and the magician each shuffle their deck. Then they shuffle each other's decks and then return the decks to each other again. Everyone chooses a card, returns it to the deck, and the cards are removed. They exchange decks and each draws a card of their choice. The cards are the same.

Props:

Two decks of cards, better with different back design.

Focus secret:

1. Choose your partner. Let's call her Natalia. Give her one of the decks and ask her to make sure it's a regular standard deck. Tell her, "In this experiment, you must do with your cards exactly what I do with mine. In the end, we will find that we have arrived at a surprising result. First of all, we will both shuffle the cards well."

2. When that's done, say, "Now we'll swap decks and shuffle them. Before you shuffle mine, you can fan it to make sure mine is standard. See? Nothing out of the ordinary? Good."

3. When you shuffle Natalia's deck, straighten it up by taking a quick look at the bottom card. Let it be the eight of hearts.

4. Place Natalia's deck face down in front of her and ask her to do the same as you. Say, "Now draw a card from any part of the deck, look at it and remember. I will do the same. Then we will both put our chosen cards back on top of the deck." In fact, although you are doing these steps, you do not need to memorize your card at all.

5. When this is done, say, "Now we'll both cut our decks like this." If Natalia doesn't know how to make a withdrawal, show her on your cards by taking half of the cards from the top of the deck, placing them on the table and placing the remaining half on top.

6. Say, "Okay. Now we'll exchange decks again. Now find the card you chose in my deck and place it face down on the table. I'll go over your deck and do the same."

7. All you need to do, of course, is find the eight of hearts in Natalya's deck. Next above it, or to the right of it, if you unfold the cards in a fan, there will be a card of Natalya. You take it out and put it on the table.

8. Say: “Natalia, what do you think is the probability that we chose the same card? We'll see".

9. You both turn over your cards and they are identical.

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 ... >>

Old phone: heat up after use 11.12.2000

Every year, the British throw thousands of broken, obsolete or unwanted mobile phones into the landfill. But soon, at the pan-European level, a law is to be adopted requiring the obligatory waste-free use of all electronics. Unnecessary appliances should be disassembled into parts that can somehow be reused or buried in a safe place.

Dismantling and sorting into parts small devices such as a pocket phone is a difficult and painstaking manual labor. Therefore, employees of Brunel University in London proposed to make mobile phones from metals and plastics with shape memory. When heated to a certain temperature, such an apparatus simply disintegrates, and the resulting pile of parts is easy to sort.

If you set up different parts of the case, PCBs and chassis to change shape at different temperatures, the sorting process will be even easier. Such phones and other electronic devices will gradually disassemble themselves into parts, passing along the conveyor through zones with varying degrees of heat.

The prototype of the self-disintegrating phone is already ready, it may appear on sale by 2005.
