Finding uniform transmission condition

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the concept of constant mechanical power transfer in linear motion, contrasting it with well-established rotational gear transmission. It explores the relationship between linear acceleration, kinetic energy, and time, suggesting that if power is constant, kinetic energy increases linearly over time. The equation v = at is deemed applicable only under constant acceleration, while an alternative formulation is proposed for energy as a function of time. The conclusion drawn is that acceleration is inversely proportional to the square root of time, but the relationship with mass is questioned. The conversation invites verification of these claims and interpretations.

We have never discussed about constant mechanical power transfer for the linear case, as against rotational well documented gear transmission. The energy acquired by linear motion, if varies linearly, then 0.5mv^2 must have constant differential. Trying it, if u=0, v=at.
d/dt[0.5m(at)^2]=constant. m(a^2)t=const.Hence concluding, a is inversely proportional to root of time, and the force to be applied is proportional to {sqrrt.(m/t)}. Does this look fine?

Who is "we"?

"The energy acquired by linear motion, if varies linearly, then 0.5mv^2 must have constant differential "
My interpretation: if you apply a constant power for linear acceleration, then the kinetic energy increases linearly with time.

v = at doesn't fly, though: that's only for constant acceleration. Here if ##{1\over 2} mv^2 = B\, t## with ##B## constant.
However, ##a## is still ##\propto \sqrt{1/t}##, but not ##\propto \sqrt{m}##.

Do check my claims, please !

Thread 'Question about pressure of a liquid'
I am looking at pressure in liquids and I am testing my idea. The vertical tube is 100m, the contraption is filled with water. The vertical tube is very thin(maybe 1mm^2 cross section). The area of the base is ~100m^2. Will he top half be launched in the air if suddenly it cracked?- assuming its light enough. I want to test my idea that if I had a thin long ruber tube that I lifted up, then the pressure at "red lines" will be high and that the $force = pressure * area$ would be massive...
I feel it should be solvable we just need to find a perfect pattern, and there will be a general pattern since the forces acting are based on a single function, so..... you can't actually say it is unsolvable right? Cause imaging 3 bodies actually existed somwhere in this universe then nature isn't gonna wait till we predict it! And yea I have checked in many places that tiny changes cause large changes so it becomes chaos........ but still I just can't accept that it is impossible to solve...
