Focus Description:

For those who do not know how to manipulate coins, here is a description of auxiliary equipment-props, with which you can quickly master an excellent number Rain of coins out of thin air and learn how to show it.

On fig. 21, And you can see the device of the coin. With it, you can easily show the passivation, which is shown in detail by the elements in Fig. C, D, E, F and G.

Focus Coin and coin box for manipulation
Fig. 21

Coin A has a metal rim. Rotating brackets are attached to it on the axes, which serve to wrap the fingers during manipulation and prevent the coin from falling out of the hands. The brackets, made of thick tin or copper, 1 mm thick, 3 mm wide, are painted in flesh color so that they are not noticeable on the hand.

Passing goes like this. The coin is clamped between the index finger and the little finger of the right hand (Fig. 21, B). Viewers will see it from the side of the palm. Then the coin is transferred to the back of the hand (Fig. D); the coin "disappears" to the spectators. Rice. D shows the moment of transferring the coin to the back of the hand. The middle and ring fingers are bent, turning over the coin. On fig. E shows the same moment from the side: another moment - and the coin will move to a position (see Fig. G), when the hand can be shown from the back of the hand. Such "mechanical" manipulation does not even require special dexterity and is very easy to perform.

On fig. 21, B shows a sideboard coin box, in which it is very convenient to store 10-12 large coins and, when necessary, take them out one at a time. The coin box designed to show the "Rain of coins from the air" trick is a tube with a soldered bottom. In turn, a curved springy plate is soldered to the bottom, which presses the coin box against the wall of the bucket and prevents it from falling out. Inside the coin box there is a spring, twisted like a sofa. At one end it is attached to the bottom of the coin box, and at the other end to a metal disk the size of a coin. The spring pushes the disk out of the pipe, but the upper edge of the tube bent inward in the form of a semicircle prevents this; the plate, having reached the bent edge, stops.

The coins are loaded into the coin box as shown in the figure, that is, they are inserted one after the other from the side. Gradually filling the tube, they lower the plate lower and lower to the bottom, compressing the spring. When the entire coin box is charged, the spring, trying to straighten up, will lift the coins up. During the show of the number, you can use several of these coin boxes, skillfully and imperceptibly exchanging them one for another.

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 ... >>

Implanted brain stimulator 30.04.2024

In recent years, scientific research in the field of neurotechnology has made enormous progress, opening new horizons for the treatment of various psychiatric and neurological disorders. One of the significant achievements was the creation of the smallest implanted brain stimulator, presented by a laboratory at Rice University. Called Digitally Programmable Over-brain Therapeutic (DOT), this innovative device promises to revolutionize treatments by providing more autonomy and accessibility to patients. The implant, developed in collaboration with Motif Neurotech and clinicians, introduces an innovative approach to brain stimulation. It is powered through an external transmitter using magnetoelectric power transfer, eliminating the need for wires and large batteries typical of existing technologies. This makes the procedure less invasive and provides more opportunities to improve patients' quality of life. In addition to its use in treatment, resist ... >>

The perception of time depends on what one is looking at 29.04.2024

Research in the field of the psychology of time continues to surprise us with its results. Recent discoveries by scientists from George Mason University (USA) turned out to be quite remarkable: they discovered that what we look at can greatly influence our sense of time. During the experiment, 52 participants took a series of tests, estimating the duration of viewing various images. The results were surprising: the size and detail of the images had a significant impact on the perception of time. Larger, less cluttered scenes created the illusion of time slowing down, while smaller, busier images gave the feeling of time speeding up. Researchers suggest that visual clutter or detail overload can make it difficult to perceive the world around us, which in turn can lead to faster perception of time. Thus, it was shown that our perception of time is closely related to what we look at. Larger and smaller ... >>

Magnet and superwire 16.02.2016

Not all superconductivity can be destroyed by a magnetic field.

The magnetic field is pushed out of the superconductor - the corresponding kind of magnetic levitation is based on this phenomenon. However, a strong field penetrates the superconductor, creating eddy currents in it, the so-called Abrikosov vortices, for the discovery of which the former Soviet scientist who moved to the United States received the Nobel Prize in 2003. Vortices destroy electron pairs, and the magnetic field is the second limit to the use of superconducting materials; the first is too much current.

However, time passes, and new superconductors appear. In particular, superconductivity was found in molybdenum disulfide quite recently: in 2012, the Japanese achieved the effect on a thin layer of this substance, and in March 2015, the Chinese did it on a bulk sample, but at high pressure, the transition temperature turned out to be slightly more than 11K. Usually, MoS2 is used as a solid lubricant component: like graphite, it is easily separated into monatomic layers. It was on such a two-dimensional object that an international group of researchers conducted experiments in Nijmegen. Why there? But because the Nijmegen High Magnetic Field Laboratory has unique facilities with extremely strong magnets; it was here in the 90s that Andrey Geim, the future Nobel laureate for the discovery of graphene, carried out the famous frog levitation due to the diamagnetism inherent in all living beings.

The most powerful field, 37,5 Tesla, was applied to a plate of disulfide in a superconducting state. The superconductivity in the sample did not disappear. Moreover, there is an opinion that even one kilotesla is unimportant to him. It is hardly possible to check this - we still do not know how to create such strong fields. In any case, now it is necessary to explain what kind of force keeps electron pairs from the destructive action of a strong field. It is possible that the explanations will help to find fundamentally new materials.
