Focus Description:

The illusionist shows the audience a short metal tube with holes in the middle, an uninflated balloon and a “magic” wand. Spectators examine the props. All the most ordinary things.

The magician puts the ball into the tube and then inflates it. You get two balls connected in the middle by a tube. The magician uses his "magic" wand to pierce the tube. And then... he takes out and shows the audience an absolutely intact ball. Why didn't it burst?

Focus Try to pierce

Focus secret:

Prepare a metal tube. Its length is no more than 100 mm, and its outer diameter is about 50 mm. Drill through the middle of the tube. Hole diameter 6 mm. The most impressive looking “magic” wand is about 200 mm long and 5 mm in diameter.

For the trick, you will need another tube, which the audience does not need to know about. Its length should be equal to the diameter of the first tube - 50 mm. Select its outer diameter so that it fits tightly into the through hole. Internal - so that the “magic” wand can pass through it freely.

The props are ready. After the audience has examined the large tube, discreetly insert the small tube into its opening. Then push the rubber shell of the balloon into the tube and inflate it. This is where the small tube will play its role. The "magic" wand will pass through it without damaging the ball.

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 ... >>

Petgugu Global cat litter 15.04.2024

Taking care of pets can often be a challenge, especially when it comes to keeping your home clean. A new interesting solution from the Petgugu Global startup has been presented, which will make life easier for cat owners and help them keep their home perfectly clean and tidy. Startup Petgugu Global has unveiled a unique cat toilet that can automatically flush feces, keeping your home clean and fresh. This innovative device is equipped with various smart sensors that monitor your pet's toilet activity and activate to automatically clean after use. The device connects to the sewer system and ensures efficient waste removal without the need for intervention from the owner. Additionally, the toilet has a large flushable storage capacity, making it ideal for multi-cat households. The Petgugu cat litter bowl is designed for use with water-soluble litters and offers a range of additional ... >>

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. ... >>

alcohol from the air 19.10.2016

US physicists have created special "nano-needles" made of graphene and copper that use electrical energy to convert carbon dioxide (CO2) into ethanol molecules - ordinary alcohol.

In recent years, scientists have been actively trying to find a way to turn atmospheric CO2 into biofuels and other useful substances. For example, in July of this year, physicists from Chicago presented an unusual solar cell made of nanomaterials that directly uses light energy to split carbon dioxide molecules and produce carbon monoxide and hydrogen, from which methane, ethanol and other biofuels can be obtained.

Rondinone and his colleagues took this process to its logical conclusion, trying to find new, more efficient ways to split CO2 into carbon monoxide and oxygen without generating other reaction by-products that are useless or even interfere with the production of biofuels from carbon dioxide.
As the main material for this catalyst, the scientists chose copper, whose electrochemical properties are ideal for reducing CO2 to carbon monoxide and other types of molecules.

The problem is that copper nanoparticles and plates convert CO2 not into one substance, but into several tens of molecules at once, whose presence and concentration depend on the voltage that is passed through the catalyst. This makes the industrial use of such CO2 splitters virtually impossible.

Physicists from Oak Ridge solved this problem with the help of another promising nanomaterial - graphene. Crumpled sheets of graphene into a kind of "accordions", scientists seeded their folds with copper nanoparticles, which led to the fact that CO2 molecules split in strictly designated places - at the tops of graphene "nano-needles".

This allowed American researchers the flexibility to control what happens during this splitting, and make CO2 turn almost always into ordinary ethyl alcohol - on average, about 60% of carbon dioxide molecules turn into ethanol.
