A binary solution ?!...

[broslad]

I thorght that the wheel might be more sensitive to weights moving on the the rim, it would be like having a larger leaver

[jim_mich]

If you shift a weight vertically 10cm, it will give the same rotational energy to the wheel, regardless of its location and radius on the wheel.

This is very true. Many do not understand this simple fact.

Suppose you have two equal weights on a wheel and you raise one weight at 12 o'clock from 50 inch radius upward outward to 55 inch radius and you raise the other weight at 6 o'clock from 55 inch upward inward to 50 inch radius. It gives the same energy as raising weight upward outward from 10 to 15 inch radius and raising weight upward inward from 15 to 10 inch radius.

Hi jim,
I was thinking this could be why the Bessler wheels were so big because the large prime mover weights operating around the axle had to be so far away from the shifter weights operating close to the rim. I've got a idea for a wheel that works like this and i'm thinking about building it, just wonderd what you guys thorght,

thanks

This work of art plays gravity,inertia and wind .

I hope,it can arouse our inspiration,so we can turn successfully our gravity+inertia "game" !

Everything breaks down to binary eventually.

Broslad, it doesn't matter if the shift is near the center, or near the rim. Near the rim, it will be affected more by CF. The amount of shift is what matters, regardless of where it is. The cost of shifting is the problem.

To be true, now I got really brain melted:

Pls help me, you good guys!

Sorry Murilo,

I see two solutions ("Everything breaks down to binary eventually" - John Doe):

...there is a tremendous amount of evidence to suggest that characteristics associated with that <insert any> label are actually associated with creativity and “abilities� rather than “disabilities.�

Either change your perspective on any issue you might encounter: because nobody seems to have a clue anyway, while the verdict actually depends on success....

Or, because:

There are no school assessments that provide evaluation on creativity and imagination, these are hard to draw up and measure and receive very little attention in our education systems

...you could ask the only one who commented on that article. Despite his choice of words, at least he claims success.

[iacob alex]

....is a simple concept proposal , to "think binary" about a possible gravity motor , as a "copy" of :
www.youtube.com/watch?v=uGBANgbRkws
Defining binary : something made of or based on two things or parts...
Defining the "binary appearance" of a gravity powered device : we need to play no more than two masses...acting variable/oscillatory leverage , due to a continuous unbalance/torque difference on the same side of the fulcrum.

[iacob alex]

.....regarding the "tick sound" of a possible gravity powered device , is alike with that of an old mechanical clock , as you can see and hear at :
https://youtu.be/giFjSxXCIhw
.....but this time in relation with a new "binary pair" ( acceleration-deceleration rhythm/long-short tempo )...for self-motion , due to a continuous /self-repetitive gravity fall ,also...
