AI Thread Summary
The proposed HyperVelocity Mass Accelerator utilizes a helical solenoid design to accelerate payloads for space transport, potentially replacing chemical rockets. The system features a tightly wound solenoid that generates a magnetic field to propel the cargo, which is encased in a diamagnetic shell to protect sensitive components. The payload is introduced from the outer end of the helical structure and gains sufficient velocity to escape Earth's gravity by the time it reaches the inner end. The design aims to be hermetically sealed to prevent external environmental interference. Constructive feedback and suggestions are welcomed to further develop this innovative concept.

I have an idea about a mass accelerator, which can be used to accelerate mass, thus can work as a good substitute for the present chemical rockets in transporting space cargo to outer space.
This model i propose of, consists of a tightly wound solenoid, which can be established permanently in the form of a 'snail-shell' type, or in a more clear sense, a Helical arrangement. Based on the principle of field existence in a typical solenoid, the space cargo can be accelerated using the magnetic field INside the coil when its excited. The cargo can be encased in a diamagnetic shell, to prevent any damage to the sensitive parts in the payload, due to the solenoidal field. This encased payload can be projected into the field from the external entrance of the helical solenoid,from where, the field accelerates it into the coil,i.e,the coil and its features shall be so designed that,ultimately,the payload needs to acquire velocity to "fly off" from the Earth's gravity (need not essentially be the escape velocity of earth!,but probably a reasonably high value!), by the time it reaches the inner end of the coil, the payload would have gained enough velocity to penetrate out of the Earth's field.The entire establishment can be 'hermetically' sealed,i.e,its field influences are prevented from affecting anything in the outer environment.
I invite any constructive sugggestions,help and ideas, or even criticism, on this, to help me develop this model.
ThanQ!

Can you draw a picture? I'm not quite sure what arrangement you are proposing.
 
See, the physical look of the setup is lyk a helix.
i mean a spiralling inside model.
lyk u c, a snail's shell...it resembles a helix.
my idea here is to project the payload into the helix from the outer end of the helix,and provide for an opening to the outer environment at its inner end.
 
The rope is tied into the person (the load of 200 pounds) and the rope goes up from the person to a fixed pulley and back down to his hands. He hauls the rope to suspend himself in the air. What is the mechanical advantage of the system? The person will indeed only have to lift half of his body weight (roughly 100 pounds) because he now lessened the load by that same amount. This APPEARS to be a 2:1 because he can hold himself with half the force, but my question is: is that mechanical...
Hello everyone, Consider the problem in which a car is told to travel at 30 km/h for L kilometers and then at 60 km/h for another L kilometers. Next, you are asked to determine the average speed. My question is: although we know that the average speed in this case is the harmonic mean of the two speeds, is it also possible to state that the average speed over this 2L-kilometer stretch can be obtained as a weighted average of the two speeds? Best regards, DaTario
Some physics textbook writer told me that Newton's first law applies only on bodies that feel no interactions at all. He said that if a body is on rest or moves in constant velocity, there is no external force acting on it. But I have heard another form of the law that says the net force acting on a body must be zero. This means there is interactions involved after all. So which one is correct?
