the top 10 fastest road cars in the world

TEN FASTEST ROAD CARS

01
Bugatti Veyron Super Sport
Top speed: 431km/h
2010–present
despite having made its public debut back in 2010, all other road-legal cars continue to eat the Super Sport’s cinders. Powered by an eight-litre engine, the Bugatti is capable of accelerating from 0-60mph in just 2.4 seconds. This need for speed doesn’t come cheap, though. Prospective owners need to have a spare $2.5m in their back pocket. And then there’s those insurance premiums.


02
Hennessey Venom Gt
Top speed: 428km/h
2012–present


03
Koenigsegg Agera R
Top speed: 418km/h
2011–present


04
Ssc Ultimate Aero
Top speed: 413km/h
2006–2013


05
9ff GT9-R
Top speed: 413km/h
2007-2008


06
Saleen S7 Twin-turbo
Top speed: 399km/h
2005–2009


07
Koenigsegg CCX
Top speed: 394km/h
2006–2010


08
McLaren F1
Top speed: 386km/h
1992-1998


09
Zenvo st1
Top speed: 374km/h
2009–present


10

Why do different countries use different mains voltages?

Why do different countries use different mains voltages? the biggest disparity is between the usA on 110V and most of the rest of the world on 230V. America’s lower voltage goes all the way back to thomas edison, who introduced direct current (dC) mains electricity at 110V. edison’s rival nikola tesla showed that long power lines transmitted alternating current (AC) more efficiently than dC. His AC approach won out, but he stuck with edison’s 110V. But by the time electrification spread to europe early in the 20th Century, lamps had filaments that could give out more light and handle greater power loads. so the Berliner elektrizitätswerke company in Germany established 230V as the standard.

Ten most dangerous animals in the world.

10 DANGEROUS ANIMALS 10 Poison dart frog (phyllobates terribilis)  Human deaths/year: Unknown living in the rainforest of colombia, this frog’s skin is coated with enough batrachotoxins to kill at least ten men. 09 Box jellyfish (Chironex fleckeri) human deaths: at least 60 since 1883 each of the sea wasp’s tentacles is armed with about 5000 stinging cells. 08 sloth bear (Melursus ursinus)  Human deaths/year: <2 like other bear species, sloth bears don’t predate humans, but chance encounters can result in deaths. 07 Great white shark (carcharodon carcharias)  Human deaths/year: <30 unprovoked shark attacks on humans are extremely rare – and fatalities even rarer. Great white, tiger and bull sharks are responsible for most. 06 lion (panthera leo) Human deaths/year: ≤100 lion attacks on humans often occur during harvests, but rare outbreaks of mass ‘maneating’ also occur. 05 African elephant (Loxodonta africana)  Human deaths...

Do video games change the brain?

Do video games affect behaviour? Video games are likely able to affect the way we behave in a number of ways. For instance, there’s concern about whether violence in games makes young people more violent. It’s not uncommon for news outlets to blame games every time a crime happens, but how true is that claim? This is controversial even within the scientific community. Yes, exposure to violence seems to affect the brain, but studies have also found that we’re good at distinguishing between real and virtual violence, and aggressive behaviour is better explained by other, mainly socio-economic factors. Numerous studies about the effects of games on the brain had been published, but all that information had not been put together until now. How did you review the research?  We gathered all scientific articles to date and compared results. In total, we found 116 experiments, the first from the 1980s. Many compared regular video game players with people who had never played; other...
