  • NERD RAGE

  • ur website expired.

  • buen invento lo hare en mi trabajo de ciencias

  • Some people don't understand the fields of magnets. Read or watch movies. :P Before asking strange questions. Or just try it @ home nice projects all over internet.

  • you don't need carbon..a brass rod or alum or wood or just about anything will do...

    nothing to see here folks..keep moving..

  • nice

  • First of all, there is not a magnet that is only N side, ( on the rod ). Second if you put it on straight , from the ground , it would do the opposite. Third(READ THIS!) , the one thing that disproves all this ^ , is if the bottom or top magnets were superconductors.

  • Could it be south-center polarized?

  • @2sonicspeed , no no you misunderstand, those circular magnets are N on the outside and S on the inside; very useful for speakers you see, the ones below are N on the top side and S on the bottom, and no levitation itself is impossible using only non rotating magnetic fields, but it is perfectly possible using A: rotating magnets B: super conductors or (as with the movie) it is partially balanced, it would fall if the wall wasn't on one side keeping it up, and the magnets were off center

  • @DavidBurnward I agree with you completely....EXCEPT, for one little issue. U claim that levitation is impossible using non rotating magnetic fields. What about Diamagnatic materials? They can can hover quite easily. (There is also a way to do it with a magnet on top and one on the bottom, but lining it with Bismuth) In that case its not the Bismuth (diamagnet) which is levitated but it somehow stablizes the middle magnet....I sort of forget the reason Y. I remember its delicate 2 do though.

  • @frankensteinmoneymac Oh yes i did forget to mention Diamagnetic but those are not magnetic fields, they are materials the force the magnetic field out of themselves and the result if that the magnetic field MUST remain a given distance away from the magnet so it ends up having a physical manifestation, this is difficult and sensitive with bismuth but superconductors (which i mentioned) are both perfect conductors AND perfect diamagnet, creating a sort of magnetic mirror keeping the magnet up

  • @DavidBurnward Another interesting Levitation thing you can do with Magnets (although a bit different than what we were talking about) is to move a magnet rapidly around a conductor, like a thick peice of copper. For insance taking a powerful rare earth magnet, and tossing it down a copper pipe just barely larger than the magnet's circ. will make it fall in "slow motion". I saw an experiment where someone took 2 pipes and spun them fast counter 2 each other and floated a magnet over the top.

  • the detector is very ;loud

  • can you use a wooden rod instead of a carbon one?

  • yep

  • now to put that tech into maglift cars...lol

  • Can you spin it ? and what results does it give ? please make report vid :D

    nice video

  • yes he can spin it and there's the same thing if yousearch for Bismuth and the RPM can go as far as 50,000rpm but it's very dangerous AND there's no torque at all meaning that for round magnets you can stop them easily. AND there are many other example of this thing here without the carbon ...there's even one solar that spin when under the sun !

  • i ve done somethi8ng similar before

  • yet you spell I've=I ve , something = somethi8ng.

    Plus you are such an engineer you have created cartoons on your page...so mr rocket scientse were are your inventions for us too see? What there is none..

    Rubert67, you are a putz compaired to this guy. Keep your mought shut and watch your cartoon in your mothers basement.

    This is big boy stuff.

  • I had to log in just to say this, Pigcowgreen.

    1. Capitalize your sentences.

    2. Mister is spelled 'Mr.' in abbreviation, not 'mr'.

    3. It's 'scientist', not 'scientse'.

    4. It's 'where', not 'were'. Were is past tense of the word 'to be'.

    5. It's 'to', not 'too'. Too means also.

    6. Because you said 'inventions' (plural), your verb in "What there is none.." should agree in plurality. Consequently, your verb should be 'are', not 'is'

    7. It's spelled 'compared', not 'compaired'.

  • 8. It's spelled 'mouth', not 'mought'.

    9. Because 'mother's basement' is plural, you need an apostrophe.

    So before you go critizicing others, go through grade school yourself first.

    P.S. that was fun! lol

  • so im gessing this sentences would piss you off.

    It's a comment, not a business report; i'm pretty sure there is better things you could be doing then criticizing grammatically incorrect comments

  • yeah right keep your "mought" shut also huh ...

  • Haha you told him!

  • Nice...very cool...very promising...
