Frédéric Chopin - Raindrop Prelude

[johnbrianna481]

anyone know what that music is ,its very relaxing

[the1grape]

a better bearing and I think it would keep going. (!)

[timstah1971]

looks like the magnet to the left of the gap is outta line. I bet some wd-40 would help it rotate a bit better. Great experiment!

[drs2100]

put that thing in the eye of a rodin coil and generate a current!

[wartech0100]

The reason it stopped is because you are trying to violate the laws of thermodynamics.... Energy cannot be created or destroyed. Energy is lost in the form of heat (friction). I will say its pretty neat but not a way to generate unlimited power and any claims to such feat are entirely bogus.. Its a efficient machine but its never going to be 100% efficient nor will it ever exceed that please people get a clue..

[Akuspizza]

Dam magnet whyd u stoooop?? T-T soo close

[transfusablepng]

Free Energy is real and its here! The Oil companies are doing everything in their power to stop these information. If you want a Free energy machine do a search in youtube for the LT MAGNET MOTOR , Join the revolution!

When I was a kid there were these plates that could be spun and they would go for sometimes over 24 hours.

[tinsaovez]

lol xD check under the table (its good to be skeptical but that was funny)

[DenSucher]

it's not R.E.M music. Whot the's?

[jctbyou]

@DenSucher Frédéric Chopin - Raindrop Prelude

[VirgilFoxMusic]

What you have here is a very low friction bearing. Yes, it spins for a long time, but from the moment you start it by initially off-balancing the rotor, it decelerates continuously until it finally comes to a stop. Nothing unusual going on here...

[jotacril]

Good work CLaNZeR: one more mith exposed.

[studioLivingDead]

it appears as though the rotor is not exactly in the middle of the bottom of the bowl. It's offset. Perhaps this is why it lost momentum?

[rjohn2]

You can buy a magnetically-levitated globe (made in China!) in the market. Give the globe a little spin and it keeps spinning for many minutes, because there is very little friction.

Here too there is very little friction because of the sphere contact area, and because of the upward magnetic force that reduces weight. So this should spin a while and then slowly grind to a halt.

[xtruma]

im thinking about one thing as im seeing this. why not pour some Nitrogen inside the bowl, plae a superconductor magnet on top in the middle, and the rotating object will be higher and closer to the manget ring placed on those rulers... let's see if that experiment makes or creates any new discoveries...maybe by accident, we oculd discover something, like any past great inventors..

[miguelroblesg]

why it lose spinning force?

[arckon09]

@miguelroblesg because the sharpie mark on the top weighed down one side more than the other...

[eqtworld]

I took it a few steps further and ran a driveshaft through the spinning unit (with much bigger magnets of corse))

I have nothing to pay for gas in months!

My car just goes forever with now charging or gas!!!!

[djahriman]

What's the longest time you've had this spinning for?

[h3rat1c]

yes you can put it to work. If the rate of deceleration is decreased then a pulse motor (of the bedini type) would benefit from such a device.

and if used on such device i would like to see if the rate of acceleration would increase. hmmm i'll go see.

[prebenso]

yes but can you put it to work

[kinakos1]

low bateri lool

[stargatejrod]

Ran out of magnetism?.....It's a lie, get a clue!

[mochiam]

no wait a minute ,,,,,,, the rulers contain high voltage atomic power generators ....... :-) Good Job man lean and clean

[zizuazi]

What is that melody ? Beethoven ? Chopin ?

[JavaLessons]

Chopin. One of his Preludes.

[mikehedge]

totally neat. great idea about the glass bowl
