Why was the discovery of high-temperature superconductors so startling to scientists?

It was startling because it was said to be impossible by the BCS theory.


A loud explosive sound?

A loud explosive sound is typically caused by a sudden release of energy, such as an explosion or a sonic boom. It can be very startling and potentially damaging to hearing if it occurs in close proximity. It is important to stay safe and investigate the source of the sound if possible.


How do you catch a mouse using a clock paper bag and a straw?

Place the clock inside the paper bag and prop it up with the straw. When the mouse goes to investigate the bag, it will knock over the clock, making a loud noise and startling the mouse into the bag, trapping it inside.


Are sonic booms dangerous or not?

Sonic booms are generally not dangerous to people on the ground. They are caused by an object moving faster than the speed of sound, creating a loud noise as the sound waves compress and form a shockwave. While sonic booms can be startling, they typically do not cause physical harm.


Can static electricity damage the nervous system?

Static electricity typically does not pose a direct threat to the nervous system. While a shock from static electricity can be uncomfortable or startling, it is unlikely to cause damage to the nerves. However, in rare cases of very high voltage discharges, such as those from lightning strikes, there may be indirect effects on the nervous system due to the physiological stress of the event.
