Re: [Vo]: Re: weight and charge

2006-11-29 Thread Harry Veeder

Yes that is true, but I am positing a slight weight loss when
travelling horizontally and while remaining in contact with
the ground.

The assertion that weight is zero at a horizontal speed of 17,000 mph
was computed with standard physics.

However, after some initial efforts to quantity my concept of weight, I
would
say weight will approach zero asymptotically with increasing horizontal
speed, but will never actually equal zero. (With speed on the x-axis and
weight
on the y-axis the curve is bell-shaped).

Any aircraft can do this by pushing it over into a parabolic arc. Even any

for the time that the wheels are not in contact with the road."

[Vo]: does centripetal vortex create a "free electron" in vortexed water?

2006-11-29 Thread Esa Ruoho

hello, does anyone have any data  as to how vortexing could create a free
electron (or, free up an electron) in the molecular structure of water?


came across this quote (first was speaking with an old man  about water's
energy levels  and  he asked if  my  vortexeralso frees up an electron  in
the water)
"The great scientist Viktor Schauberger was the first to demonstrate what
happens to water when we pump it through pipes under pressure. Coming out of
the ground, Schauberger said, water is "living." It contains an extra
electron in the outer ring, and it is the vortex of naturally moving water
that creates this structure.

But when pushed through a pipe, although it wants to move in a vortex (as we
can easily demonstrate for ourselves), water is forced into a circular
motion, and this circular movement strips the outer electrons off the water
molecule, creating what's called "unstructured" water. It's still hydrogen
and oxygen, but it lacks a specific electrical charge."
this from http://netmar.com/~maat/archive/dec3/editor.htm

but honestly.. anyone have any more leads?

What's the implication of the temp difference? Anyway, the guy can have a BSEE 
and a PhD in physics and can still have made gross errors in his measurements, 
especially if he's had only a few minutes to perform them. What did he measure 
and with what instruments, and what was his conclusion?

Ah? Then why did he spend money for that analysis, couldn't he measure the 0.25 
COP himself at the time? Anyway Sprain's own recent measurements, which I saw 
in June of this year and which were supposed to support his OU claims, pointed 
to a COP of the same order as the 2002 value (well below unity) once I had 
corrected the current for the large error factor I found.

Well, whether linear or sinusoidal, I view this device more and more as a 
perfectly ordinary electric motor so I won't hold my breath until it becomes 
overunity. However I can see you're an indefectible believer so I'll wish you

Just be patient.  The new magnet is under construction.  It is

RE: [Vo]: 1.568 x 10 -25 Farads

2006-11-29 Thread Keith Nagel
Hi Frank,

That first link was most interesting, thanks kindly.

I will need to study a bit more about what is meant by the Zemach
radius and the magnetic radius. I do think that the whole
concept of a "billiard ball" particle falls apart on close inspection,
rather like the old Bohr model. Yet, we can still use these
lumped parameter analysis to good effect.

As regards the capacity, I should point out that my experience with
this is pretty much all on the macro scale. Capacity is a geometric
phenomena, if you can define the shape of the object and it's relation
to the ground plane, and you know the permittivity of the medium
in between, you can determine the capacity. As Fred pointed out
in his post, in the case of the electron the radius is determined
by the following equation.

r = q^2/[4(pi)eo* mc^2]

and you can see the energy term is "hidden" in there. But no matter
how we determine the radius, we still end up with something in units
of length.

Now, it is an experimentally known fact ( hey, I designed plenty of
HV capacitors using this formula, so it works for me at least )
that the capacity of a sphere in space is given by the following equ.

C = 4*pi*e0*r

So given those two things, that was my result. It confuses me as well
as to how we end up with different numbers. I think we can both
agree that the energy in a capacitor is 1/2*C*V^2. But as I said
I'm not using that relationship at all to calculate my capacity,
it being a purely geometric property.

Perhaps what all this is really saying is that, if we use your
derivation from energy considerations, that the resulting shape
in not spherical? In which case, I would need to use some other
formula to calculate the capacity... I don't know. If I get some
free time I'll look over your derivation more closely, and see
if I get any insights.

K.

How can you read and understand what I wrote, then come to exactly the opposite
conclusion, based on it? What I said was that 16O preferentially escapes from
massive bodies, leaving a higher concentration of 18O behind. However if this
were the case, then one might expect the O in rocks (particularly the quartzes)
to be nearer the interstellar ratio as this O is less likely to take part in
atmospheric exchange. The O taking part in atmospheric exchange would primarily
be in the air and water of the Earth. IOW the "ratio on Earth" would depend on
who measured it, and exactly where they got the O from that they measured. 

BTW Google revealed a few interesting things:
