Focus Description:

This is a trick in which water and light produce a mysterious effect.

Props:

- a glass jar with a lid with a capacity of 1 liter;
- tap water;
- a coin;
- assistant.

Preparation:

1. Pour water into the jar and close the lid.

2. Give your assistant a coin so that he can make sure that this is really the most common coin and there is no catch in it.

3. Have him put the coin on the table. Ask him: "Do you see the coin?" (Of course he will answer yes.)

4. Put a jar of water on the coin.

5. Say magic words, for example: "Here is a magic coin, here it was, but not there."

6. Have your helper look through the water on the side of the jar and say if he sees the coin now? What will he answer?

You can make this trick even more effective. After your helper can't see the coin, you can make it reappear. Say other magic words, for example: "As the coin fell, so it appeared." Now remove the jar and the coin will be back in place.

Focus secret:

This focus is achieved due to the reflection of light from the wall of the jar. Reflection is the bouncing of light from a surface back.

Artificial leather for touch emulation 15.04.2024

In a modern technology world where distance is becoming increasingly commonplace, maintaining connection and a sense of closeness is important. Recent developments in artificial skin by German scientists from Saarland University represent a new era in virtual interactions. German researchers from Saarland University have developed ultra-thin films that can transmit the sensation of touch over a distance. This cutting-edge technology provides new opportunities for virtual communication, especially for those who find themselves far from their loved ones. The ultra-thin films developed by the researchers, just 50 micrometers thick, can be integrated into textiles and worn like a second skin. These films act as sensors that recognize tactile signals from mom or dad, and as actuators that transmit these movements to the baby. Parents' touch to the fabric activates sensors that react to pressure and deform the ultra-thin film. This ... >>

The attractiveness of caring men 14.04.2024

The stereotype that women prefer "bad boys" has long been widespread. However, recent research conducted by British scientists from Monash University offers a new perspective on this issue. They looked at how women responded to men's emotional responsibility and willingness to help others. The study's findings could change our understanding of what makes men attractive to women. A study conducted by scientists from Monash University leads to new findings about men's attractiveness to women. In the experiment, women were shown photographs of men with brief stories about their behavior in various situations, including their reaction to an encounter with a homeless person. Some of the men ignored the homeless man, while others helped him, such as buying him food. A study found that men who showed empathy and kindness were more attractive to women compared to men who showed empathy and kindness. ... >>
