The question of circular motion in future

Click For Summary

Discussion Overview

The discussion revolves around the applications of circular motion in future technologies and concepts. Participants explore various examples, including the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) and potential future innovations involving circular motion.

Discussion Character

  • Exploratory
  • Debate/contested
  • Conceptual clarification

Main Points Raised

  • One participant inquires about future applications of circular motion, specifically questioning if the LHC is an example.
  • Another participant confirms that the LHC utilizes circular motion to allow particles to spin indefinitely, but notes that its operation does not fundamentally rely on circular motion.
  • There is a suggestion that cars, specifically wheels, could be considered an application of circular motion, although this is met with skepticism regarding the generality of the question.
  • Participants discuss the distances protons can travel in the LHC, comparing it to astronomical distances, and mention the challenges of achieving similar distances in linear accelerators.
  • One participant expresses a desire for points on future applications without needing excessive detail, indicating a focus on emerging technologies involving circular motion.
  • A later reply speculates that future technologies will likely continue to incorporate circular motion in various moving parts or electrical devices, and even suggests that atomic structures involve circular motion through electron orbitals.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants express differing views on the specificity and relevance of examples related to circular motion in future applications. There is no consensus on what constitutes a valid application or how to define "in the future."

Contextual Notes

The discussion includes varying interpretations of "future applications," with some participants focusing on existing technologies like the LHC and cars, while others seek more innovative or speculative examples. The conversation reflects uncertainty about the scope and nature of future developments involving circular motion.

i want to know some applications(idear) about circular motion in future.

Is Large Hadron Collider, LHC about circular motion?

PLZ,HELP

First of all, what do you mean by "in the future?"

Second, yes, the LHC uses circular motion, but only because that allows it to let particles spin indefinitely without using up a ridiculous amount of space, I think.

If the LHC is a cyclotron (which I'm pretty sure it is), it uses electric fields to accelerate particles and magnetic fields to keep them moving in a circle. So it uses circular motion, but how it works doesn't really rely on it.

A wheel in cars?

Your question is way too general to give a useful answer.

Btw.: Protons in the LHC can travel a distance which is equivalent to the distance sun<->neptune, sometimes even more than that. It would be... tricky to achieve this in a linear accelerator.

in the future mean that technique, technology, application are researched. we will use it in the future. it only can have a idea about circular motion. it's fine.

technique, technology, future application.
they may are researched even only have a idea.

I just want to get some points.
It do not need too much detail.
 
I'm quite sure we will continue to use cars tomorrow - and in the next decades. That is in the future.
While the LHC will continue to operate tomorrow (unless something goes wrong), it already did so yesterday.

Something new, which is not present today?
Well, fine. Probably nearly every object with moving parts or electricity which will be built in the future.
If you consider orbitals of electrons in atoms as "circular motion": Every object made out of atoms. Which is "every object", unless something really surprising happens.
