Fun with magnets; was RE: [Vo]:Magnetic viscosity question: generating a harmonic frequency

2008-05-22 Thread Hoyt A. Stearns Jr.
I have been doing many experiments with magnets recently, and have hundreds of the most powerful magnets available from e.g. http://www.forcefieldmagnets.com/catalog/index.php http://www.supermagnetman.net/ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NdFeB#Other_dangers http://www.kjmagnetics.com/proddetail

I think this issue was addressed by an experiment in fizzx.com, a spin-off of the Steorn forum. It would have been in one of the Whipmag threads. If I have time today, I'll see if I can find it. Terry On Tue, May 20, 2008 at 10:12 PM, OrionWorks <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I hope I am posing t

I hope I am posing this question concerning the characteristics of magnetic properties using proper terminology. My apologies up front if not. The following two questions are related to each other: (1) Does anyone know how fast magnetic viscosity on average tends to propagate (or cycle) through v
