Directory / Spectacular tricks and their clues

Focus Description:

Let the spectators shuffle the deck. We lay out 25 cards in five pieces in five rows. We ask the spectator to remember the card and say in which row it is. You must memorize the first, left card of this row.

We collect cards in vertical rows. We start collecting from the last card of the last row. We put this card with a spot down on the last card of the adjacent row, then we put these two on the last card of the previous row, etc.

Having collected all the cards, lay them out again as before. Now the cards that were in the first in each row made up the first row. Again we ask the viewer in which row his card is located. Having received the response of the viewer, we are looking in the first row for the first card of the row in the last layout of the cards that you remember. The card you need will be right below it in the corresponding column. This trick can be done with several spectators, just in this case you have to remember the first cards of the rows.

Focus Guessing a card from a row

Focus secret:

The following table explains the essence of the focus.

The described trick can be done with 16, 25, 36, 49 cards, because each of these numbers is a square. When performing a trick, you just need to lay out the appropriate number of cards in a row.

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 ... >>

The physical standard of the kilogram will be replaced by the quantum formula 14.11.2018

The world is no longer using the kilogram standard, which has been kept at the International Bureau of Weights and Measures in Sevres, France since 1889. This is a small cylinder made of an alloy of platinum and iridium. The reason is that its mass can change.

"This is not very good, given the accuracy in measurements we need at the moment," said Thomas Grenon, head of France's National Laboratory for Metrology and Testing.

The kilogram remained the last measure that depended on the physical object. On November 16 in Versailles at the 26th General Conference of the International Bureau of Weights and Measures, everything will change. For a kilogram, the formula will be adopted. This will be a universal formula for determining the kilogram based on the laws of quantum physics.

Now a kilogram will be determined not by the weight of the standard, but by the amount of electrical energy needed to move an object weighing a kilogram. And the energy, in turn, is calculated on the basis of Planck's constant.

The General Conference of the International Bureau of Weights and Measures at the Paris Palace of Versailles will also discuss the definition of other major international units of measurement - the ampere (A) unit of electric current, the kelvin (K) unit of thermodynamic temperature, and the mole - a unit of measurement of the amount of substance.

The concept of gram and kilogram was introduced into science in 1795. Water was taken as the basis: it was believed that one kilogram is equal to the weight of a liter of water. For the mass standard, a platinum cylinder was first made, and then a platinum-iridium cylinder.

The standard was kept under reliable protection. Under two glass caps, from which the air was pumped out. Moreover, only three people in the whole world had access to the room where the standard stood. Everyone had their own key. But it was possible to open the door and enter the room with the standard only by turning three keys at the same time. But that didn't help either. By the end of the XNUMXth century, scientists discovered that the standard was gradually losing mass.
