You know the exit is somewhere along this stretch of
highway, but you have
never taken it before
and do not want to miss
it. As you carefully scan
the side of the road for
the exit sign, numerous
distractions intrude on
your visual field:
billboards, a snazzy
convertible, a cell phone
buzzing on the
dashboard. How does your brain focus on the task at hand?
To answer this question, neuroscientists generally study the way the brain strengthens its response to what you are looking for – jolting itself with an especially large electrical pulse when you see it. Another mental trick may be just as important, according to a study published in April in the Journal of Neuroscience: the brain deliberately weakens its reaction to everything else so that the target seems more important in comparison.
Such research may eventually help scientists understand what is happening in the brains of people with attention problems, such as attentionͲdeficit/hyperactivity disorder. And in a world increasingly permeated by distractions – a major contributor to traffic accidents – any insights into how the brain pays attention should get ours.

Segundo William Cobbett,
A trajetória de um projétil, lançado da beira de um penhasco sobre um terreno plano e horizontal, é parte de uma parábola com eixo de simetria vertical, como ilustrado na figura. O ponto P ܲ sobre o terreno, pé da perpendicular traçada a partir do ponto ocupado pelo projétil, percorre ͵ 30 m desde o instante do lançamento até o instante em que o projétil atinge o solo. A altura máxima do projétil, de 200 m acima do terreno, é atingida no instante em que a distância percorrida por P ܲ, a partir do instante do lançamento, é de 10 m. Quantos metros acima do terreno estava o projétil quando foi lançado?
