The truth about physics
I had a dream. A great idea. An engine that runs a ball around within from it. All the pieces are fixed.
The idea was based on the angular momentum combined with the first and the third Newton’s laws.
If an object spins on the same axis as the second one, it implies the same opposite angular momentum to the second object. If the second object is a wheel with a smaller moment of inertia and a radius a little bigger than the first one the second object will rotate in the opposite direction.
I liked the idea, too much, because the angular momentum points to the same direction as it does the axis. The result is that tis sistem stands up by itself.
The dream was so cool I made a proof of concept
prototype of the “engine” but the thing didn’t work as espected, it spinned itself for a litle bit but then it stopped. No idea what’s going on.
After some more research I got an explanation. I was thinking too fast and forgot that the angular momentum is implied only when a change of the angular velocity occurs.
An idea that the laws of physics annihilated.
How to trick out mother physics like they did in Hitchhiker’s guide to the galaxy?
