In the popular comics, in both print and film, the leitmotif is the idea that only the worthy can possess Mielnica. Of course, the roots of this legend go to ancient times, in the Scandinavian myths. But we do have the film “Thor: Ragnarok”, and we must discuss how the main weapon in the film. And help us in this Bank “Opening” with his Smart Card. For example, we’ll show you how could be arranged in the hammer of Thor from a scientific point of view.
For a long time it was believed that in the MARVEL universe, Thor was the only being that Mjollnir considered worthy. And when Beta ray bill was the first character besides Thor who has mastered the hammer, and for some, the Torah itself had to reflect deeply on the meaning of these manipulations.
Thor’s hammer has always been difficult. He was “forged in the heart of a dying star” that implies an extremely dense metal. Made of lead Mjollnir would weigh at least 150 pounds, and in “reality” even more than that, so it’s easy to explain why Thor was not surprised that death can’t take a hammer in their hands. If you’re not God, you don’t have godlike power.
In the human world, however, its own laws, and divine power gives us… a Bank card. We don’t have to fight monsters every day, but has to get paid, withdraw cash, transfer money, pay for the services. Conveniently, all this can be done by using a tiny, thin plastic card and mobile app. Let’s compare how close you can become to son of Asgard, if the arm Smart Card “Open”.
High technology of Asgard?
We know that the magic of Asgard actually presented sverhrazdutaya technology, so if Thor was the only one who could use a hammer in the past, Mjollnir was supposed to be “password protected” or something like that. And then Thor would be the only “approved user”. If it was always Loki — brother of Thor — didn’t even try to lift the hammer. But he was trying. In addition, if Mjollnir was almost impossible to budge without having a divine power of Thor, it would be possible to use the power of the mind instead of brute force to give elected “access” to the hammer.
Convenient, isn’t it? And in a rocking chair did not go.
Electromagnetism, or the interest on the account balance?
The simple answer to the question “how does Thor’s hammer?” will be the magnets.
Electromagnetism in reality is a very cool thing. Electromagnetism not only controls the behavior of electricity and magnets; light consists of photons, which are electromagnetic “rays” (as well as wave and particle simultaneously); radiation works because of electromagnetic charges; most chemical reactions are exchanges of electrons; most biological processes — also the exchange of electrons, and if matter is energy and all energy based stores electromagnetism, and everything in the universe will be presented by the magnets in some form.
In our world there is another interesting analogy. Everything in the world has value or liquidity, thanks to which Economics is born and money circulate among the people. You can exchange a house for a car, work on art, food, water — you only need to negotiate.
In the world of comic books magnetism allows to do some interesting things. It allows you to control the metals, to the use of magnetic fields for levitation and so on. And rightly so: because the body is leaking electric currents, it is possible to form a so-called “biomagnetic field”. Scientists even got to levitate frogs, due to these properties of magnetic fields. One of the book versions of Thor called Eric Masterson, so, continuing the line with Magneto, we can assume that Thor in some way uses properties of magnets to control Mielnica.
We would like to valuables or cash equivalent — at least a little lingered near us. Smart account, which is available in the Annex of the Bank and goes along with the Smart Card each month is charged 7% interest on the balance. And all this is due to the properties of money magnetism.
Is it better to return the hammer or return the money (cashback)?
Of course, the use of magnetic fields for levitation may explain much of the behavior of Mjolnir. In our world, trying in vain to create superconductors that work at room temperature to at least a little closer to the capabilities of quantum levitation. Judge for yourself: hammer of Thor, being, weighing a hundred pounds, behaves as a light weapon. When throwing he seems to be defying gravity, holding up at the same height, instantly pausing and changing the angle of flight. Maybe hammer in some way interacts with the magnetic field of the Earth? Then he definitely needs to be a superconductor.
The ability to manipulate electromagnetic fields could also explain the ability of Thor summon lightning. Scientists have created artificial lightning using the Tesla coils, but Mjollnir seems to work a little differently, because it manipulates the “real” lightning. You may have heard that lightning does not move downwards and upwards from earth to heaven (this is half true), so we can assume that Mjollnir uses an electromagnetic field to start the particle beam to the clouds, and the opposite charge in the clouds sends them back to the hammer. It is interesting to note that in films Mjollnir never creates lightning alone: he always pulls them down (and then drops), so we probably are on the right way.
In the normal world returning hammer can provide more disadvantages than advantages: it is enough to gape, to realize the bitterness of its errors. Much nicer to return their honestly paid the money. Smart Card gives cashback to 1.5% for any purchase up to 10% in protocatechuic. Our technology is not an example of practical asgardian.
A reasonable approach
Perhaps the most important feature of Mjolnir is his… intelligence.
As we have seen, in Asgard magic and science are almost one and the same. Odin himself was called Mjollnir, the magical (read: scientific and technical). And apparently, One wouldn’t keep a piece of metal in an inactive state, so that Thor didn’t use it until you become worthy according to Odin. Rather, One is instructed Mjollnir to make an independent judgment. In this case, either Mjollnir has a complex artificial intelligence, or he has a “soul”, allows you to have a psychic connection. Specifically, they have Thor and Odin was a kind of mental connection with the hammer: one of them could just pull the hand and the hammer flew; wave your hand, and he was hit by lightning.
There is another proof that Mjolnir intelligence. During the “Avengers” Mjollnir lay on the deck of the helicopter, and the Hulk tried to lift it. The Hulk, the self-proclaimed “the strongest among us,” was to lift Mjollnir without problems, if weight were the only factor. However, Mjollnir completely refused to move. Perhaps Mjollnir increases its weight as needed, because if the Hulk put enough force that his feet struck the deck, Mjollnir similarly, it would hurt. The only explanation that comes to mind is “resistance” Mjolnir: he has on earth the same power that Hulk pulls him from the ground. This may explain how such a heavy-looking hammer can rush through the air like a paper plane.
All of this make an important conclusion: a reasonable approach is best. Smart Card “Open” provides the most reasonable approach to the management of funds in a world where every penny counts. Even the service will be free, if the balance or purchase amount exceeds 30 000 rubles per month. Order the card in a mobile application Open, and the courier will deliver it for free in 34 cities of Russia.
By the way, this month bromocatechol — movie, so you get increased cashback 10% for tickets to any cinema. Rather, a great reason to go to the premiere of the new “Thor” to see how the magic of Asgard.
