Focus Description:

A convertible is rolled out onto the stage, into which an assistant sits; the carriage makes one circle around the stage. When she turns to the audience, everyone sees that instead of a man, a female assistant is sitting on the seat. The performer immediately comes out and bows to the audience. The convertible is taken backstage.

The secret is clear from Fig. 210. An assistant, preparing to leave, sits with her back to the assistant and is hidden from him by a wall. At the right moment, both of them instantly change places.

The illusion can be greatly improved by making the seat in a convertible on an axle. Then the change of faces can happen instantly, one has only to turn the seat.

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 ... >>

Free radicals prolong life 19.03.2012

In recent years, a theory has spread according to which aging is accelerated by an excess of free radicals - molecules that actively enter into chemical reactions and destroy the vital structures of a living cell.

There are a lot of nutritional supplements with antioxidants - substances that take the hit of free radicals, protecting the body. Food products enriched with antioxidants are advertised.

However, the experiments of the Canadian physiologist Siegfried Hekimi call into question both the theory and the practical conclusions from it. He developed a line of microscopic laboratory worms, Caenorhabditis elegans, with increased production of free radicals. Contrary to expectations, they lived longer than usual. When Hekimi introduced antioxidants into the diet of the worms, their lifespan was reduced.

It is too early to generalize the results of these experiments to humans; additional studies are required.
