Science of Rubber

Rubber comes from the latex of the rubber tree, natural rubber is used in many applications and products, either alone or in combination with other materials.  industrial demand for rubber-like materials began to outrun natural rubber supplies by the end of the 19th century, leading to the making of synthetic rubber in 1909 by chemicals.

rubber was first used for making balls for the Mesoamerican ballgame, rubber was later used by the Maya and Aztecs.

Half of the world's rubber is used in car tires.

Tapping a rubber tree is using a tap and hammering it into the tree and being able take the sap used in rubber.


History of Wein

The wine is nice and tasty wine (time to get drunk).

The wine was made with fermented grapes and yeast, and it was made for thousands of years, the earliest proof was in the Caucasus region of modern-day Georgia around 6000 BCE.

Wine is very prominent in religion, in ancient Egypt Red wine meant blood, and was used in the Greek cult of Dionysus

One of the reasons why people drink wine is for its intoxication effects, the steady spread of wine culture westwards was most probably due to the Phoenicians who spread outward from a base of city-states along the Mediterranean coast centered around modern-day Lebanon.

WEIN.

The History of Cellophane tape

 Cellophane tape is used as a binding substance to stick objects together.

in 1925 Richard Drew invented the first Pressure adhesive tape, it was designed to help with two-tone auto paint jobs because it was difficult to have a border between the two colors. In response, after two years of work in 3M's labs, Drew invented the first masking tape, a two-inch-wide paper strip with a light, pressure-sensitive adhesive.

The adhesive was only on the sides of the strip and in its first-ever test run to try to do a two-tone paint job the tape fell off the sides, and the person adding the tape to do the paint job said to add more adhesive.

In 1930 it was titled the Scotch Cellophane tape.

Sailing stones

 These are the rocks in death valley's arid lake beds called The Racetrack, they are stones or rocks that seem to move by themselves, weighing about 320 kilograms.

Yeah moving by themselves, rocks, moving yeah. Some just stay in the same spot for decades, but when they do move they leave a long linear line behind them. Some of these rocks have traveled more than 450 meters.

To figure out why they move scientists put GPS trackers on them and titled the article "The most boring study ever". Two years into the project a couple of scientists went to the racetrack and found that the lake had a thin layer of water, and then one of the rocks moved.

They published the paper saying that there were circumstances that had to be fulfilled for the stones to sail. One: was that it had to have water deep enough for floating sheets of ice to form but shallow enough not to cover the stones. Two: at night the water has to freeze and the ice breaks off to form floating sheets of ice. Three: the wind has to be strong enough to push the ice which in turn pushes the stones allowing them to sail.

Sailing stones, Weeeeeee.
