Pratique du Shadowing: How the Web-Shooter Works - Apprendre l'anglais à l'oral avec la vidéo

Création de la leçon...
1
The web shooter is one of the coolest and most iconic gadgets in pop culture.
2
What's inside it?
3
How does it work?
4
And could something like this exist in real life?
5
This is DianX, and right now you'll find out how the web shooter works.
6
each spider -man has their own version of web shooters
7
but no matter the design they all work on the same principle
8
let's break down the simplest and most recognizable version the one peter parker built in the amazing spider -man from 2012
9
The basis of the web shooter is the web itself.
10
It is stored in a special capsule.
11
Inside is a bio -cable from Oscorp, created from the silk of genetically modified spiders.
12
Peter slightly altered the formula, adapting it for his purposes.
13
One capsule holds hundreds of meters of thread under a pressure of about 20 atmospheres, roughly 300 PSI.
14
An electromechanical valve is attached to the web capsule.
15
It prevents the web from being released without Peter's command.
16
On the front of the device, a nozzle.
17
There's that shapes the web into a stream when fired.
18
Firing is triggered by a button built into his glove.
19
When you press it with two fingers, the middle and ring, a signal is sent to the device.
20
Inside the web shooter, there's a miniature circuit board that performs several functions.
21
It receives a signal from the trigger, opens the valve on the capsule, and displays the remaining web level through LED indicators.
22
The device is powered by a standard lithium battery.
23
All the parts had to be compact and reliable, so Peter used components from old wristwatches.
24
Now let's see how the shot happens.
25
Peter presses the trigger button with his fingers, closing the contact.
26
The signal from the button goes to the microcontroller.
27
The controller opens the valve in the capsule with the web.
28
The web is instantly ejected outside under high pressure.
29
Passing through the nozzle, the web takes the form of a directed thread, which instantly solidifies, becoming strong and flexible.
30
In the next movie, Peter improved his device.
31
and here's the web shooter that tony stark built for tom holland's spider -man featuring artificial intelligence and multiple web modes
32
here's toby mcguire's version and here's peter's web shooter from insomniac games this is miles morales's web shooter from the same game
33
Write in the comments which version you like best, and don't forget to like, subscribe, and hit the bell so you don't miss future videos.
34
And now for the big question, is it actually possible to build web shooters in real life?
35
Well, the device itself is fairly realistic.
36
Some YouTube enthusiasts have already shown that.
37
But when it comes to the web itself, things get complicated.
38
natural spider silk is an incredible material stronger than steel lighter than plastic elastic and it doesn't twist when stretched
39
it may seem simple just take a spider connect a milking machine to it create a spider farm and collect the web
40
But no, most spiders don't live in colonies.
41
They eat each other and the amount of silk they produce is tiny.
42
But there are so -called social spider species.
43
Most likely it was their genetically modified version shown in the movie.
44
That's why scientists are now focusing on synthetic alternatives.
45
They manage to synthesize the spidroin protein, the basis of natural spider silk.
46
From it, they make threads that are just as strong and elastic as the real thing.
47
But even if we imagine that we already have the web, swinging like Spider -Man still wouldn't work.
48
Because Peter has super -strong muscles
49
and reinforced bones his body can handle massive g -forces for
50
the average person such sudden pulls can cause serious injuries our bodies just aren't built for
51
that however this kind of web could be used for other purposes for example to make ultralight body armor ropes
52
or fasteners web shooters are undoubtedly one of the coolest superhero gadgets
53
simple and brilliantly engineered but like any device on its own it's just a tool
54
the true strength of spider -man isn't in his powers or gadgets it's in his intelligence his sense of responsibility,
55
and his kind heart.

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?

Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
