Two Hearts Become One

[AntoMelta]

I am very happy to see the vidoe after you give this Two copper wire-form hearts are shown rotating separately, then combined to form one motor

[willamricard]

I Love The Video It Can Increase My Knowledge Two Hearts Become One

[imegatrone]

Steady I Really Like This Video Two copper wire-form hearts are shown rotating separately, then combined to form one motor.

[Melehete]

Good, I like that you share this video Two copper wire-form hearts are shown rotating separately, then combined to form one motor. , I wish success always

[NganaJHone]

Nice Video Two copper wire-form hearts are shown rotating separately, then combined to form one motor That You Share , So Very Nice Thanks You

[Ondelendo]

I Really Like The Video From Your Two copper wire-form hearts are shown rotating separately, then combined to form one motor.

[bundawartini]

Your Video Is Very Useful Sharing Two copper wire-form hearts are shown rotating separately, then combined to form one motor.

[SirSelfunk]

hello! :) where do i find these magnet and these hearts-shaped stuff? Please name them so i can buy them! it's really beautiful yet so simple! :)

[MrfixitRick]

@SirSelfunk

There is a link in the "show more" box to my Instructable on how to make these.

Magnets can be bought online at a pace like K&J Magnetics, or you can just use a big bass speaker and some pennies like in the movie.

[DarkwithPeace]

Maybe we refine this information into using the earths magnetic field to produce free energy! Then channel it all into a giant radio the continuously loops ""Be Excellent To Each Other". Free energy and World Peace. Problems solved.

[MrfixitRick]

@DarkwithPeace

Good plan. I'm on it!

[GiorgioCapocasa]

It could probably run faster if you used neodymium magnet the diameter of the battery:

2000RPM rotating hearts. Soooo romantic =D

[forgefwa]

me and my wife are both teachers, i'm gonna give this in saint valentines =D

[MrfixitRick]

@forgefwa

That's great!

As teachers, you have the unique possibility of taking this to the next level...and doing it as a class project!

Perhaps if the students were told they must make one for someone else, not just for themselves, it would demonstrate the essential part of St Valentine's Day...Love. That way, the joy of making and receiving can be shared by all!

[forgefwa]

@MrfixitRick You are right, I dindn't think in that, i should make it a project, thanks, you helped me twice this day :)

sorry if i miss spelled something, I'm from México so my english is not that good...

[pokemonblaster96]

omg how did u make that i cant do it

[MrfixitRick]

@pokemonblaster96

Sure. you can make it too!

You can follow my step-by-step instructions in my Instructable, found at the link in this video's "more info" box.

Uh huh huh huh.. you've got a homo pole..

[tzuky22]

hey what's the song called and who is singing it ....i'm loving it!!! and nice work by the way :d

[MrfixitRick]

@tzuky22

The song is "Be Excellent To Each Other", courtesy EJ Gold from the "California Dreams" album. Found at onlythebestcds.

[tzuky22]

@MrfixitRick tx a lot ....

[MrfixitRick]

@tzuky22

"Be Excellent TO Each Other" is also available for download in iTunes. (just search for it in search window}

[uSee218]

Hi dude i commented here because i got a lot of question on your other video that fascinated me a lot :) ok so can i use other wire because i can't find any copper wire at home i bought a N52 grade last night and rechargeable battery that you recommend all i need is wire. I saw your other video can i use with a hanger? i got a hanger just like yours :)

[MrfixitRick]

@uSee218

The hanger is magnetic and will be useful for hanging a battery or magnet, but is not good for making the hearts. The heart wire must be conductive but not magnetic, like copper, silver, or if you can't find those, gold will do !!

You can always tear into a wall and yank out the wiring...

(remember to turn the circuit breaker off first ;)

[uSee218]

@MrfixitRick what size of copper are those?

[MrfixitRick]

@uSee218

I used 8 gage solid copper wire. You can use as thin as 18 gage and it will still work. I went as thick as practically possible.

[UbermenschTheory]

were those canadian pennies, they were, werent they? hahaha

[MrfixitRick]

@UbermenschTheory

Of course...most Canadian pennies are magnetic!

[UbermenschTheory]

@MrfixitRick That's awsome! I didnt want to peek at your profile to confirm it.

Good stuff!

[GBGinmyheart]

More juice would giva a faster rotation right?

[MrfixitRick]

@GBGinmyheart

More voltage = faster rotation. More amperage = better torque.

[Sadiya91]

How it occurs? Why it rotates?

[MrfixitRick]

@Sadiya91

The wire heart rotates from the Lorentz effect that occurs with a current flowing in a magnetic field.

[marans77]

can you show us how it is working ??

[MrfixitRick]

@marans77

For building instructions, see my Instructable link in the "more info" box.

I works by the Lorentz force developed between the wire and the magnetic field. Google "Lorentz Force" for more info on that.

[c15688]

Why it turns to the right like a clock? and not to the left. Is there some physics principle or something? Have a nice day you all.

[MrfixitRick]

@c15688

The homopolar motor works by the Lorentz force, which can be predicted by the right-hand rule. See wikipedia "Lorentz force" and "homopolar generator".

Normally, the rotation can be reversed by flipping over the magnet. That's hard to do in this case. However, the battery could be inverted with the + terminal at the bottom, and the rotation would reverse.

[Fuzzy192006]

Mr. Fixit, oculd you also make a version using the wonderful song, Nicolae Guta - Cikalaka ?

[MrfixitRick]

@Fuzzy192006

It's a wonderful song, but I've confused enough people with 2 versions as it is!

[MrfixitRick]

@Anothercoilgun

wow, thanks for the comment. There will be more of zen flute in the future.

[xCharbel]

didnt i see this last week?

[MrfixitRick]

@xCharbel

This is a repeat, but with easier-to-listen-to music. The zen flute was too challenging for some folks!

[ninjajim]

is this the same ej gold behind your spirit radio and wormhole theories?

[MrfixitRick]

@ninjajim

yes...he has a multi-dimensional existence, hehe!

[whotoinfinity]

Nice come back...

Peace
