    Diagram Motor
AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the design and functionality of a motor utilizing strong electromagnets with a force of 500 pounds. Key questions include whether the electromagnets should be activated past top dead center or if continuous power is sufficient, and how the number of turns in the coils affects RPM. Concerns are raised about the motor's design, particularly regarding energy loss and the effectiveness of the magnetic field when the rotor is not in close proximity to the electromagnets. Suggestions include using multiple magnets around the rotor or creating a circular magnet to enhance performance. The conversation concludes with a commitment to order additional parts for further experimentation.

The diagram is for a motor using the really strong electromagnets I found on ebay they have 500 pounds force even when 1/4 inch away


1. Is there a need to fire the electromagnets past top dead center or can you just leave the power on.

2. If the force is really high then would more turns cause lower rpm and would that apply to electromagnets on each end as shown in my motor.

Sorry, dude, but your artwork is incomprehensible. This seems to just be an end-run around the same stuff that you've been posting before. Study up on electrodynamics yourself if you're not willing to accept the viewpoint of the experts.
 
you can't move a motor like that... stupidly i did try to build a homade motor like that... anyway, it loses a lot of energy in half a circle without magnetic field present... at least with the poor parts i got... the electromagnet is usful only when when the far edges of the rotor are really close to it.

so either you put several magnets round the rotor, or you create a circular magnnet with your electromagnet...

oh, and the proportions of you motor are quite odd.. that would make a lot of precision problems, plus filling a large area with a magnetic field.

i myself not long ago tried to make a motor myself, its all set, just one problem still in the way, and the lack of parts( i use hommade parts) prevents me from finishing it... but I am sure ill find something sometime...

Thanks

Im going to order several from ebay and maybe make some curved ones.

Thanks to all for your support.
 

Thread 'Average velocity as a weighted mean'

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

Thread '1:1 versus 2:1 Mechanical Advantage debate'

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...

Thread 'Newton's first law?'

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?
