The higher the frequency, the more energy a photon has. Casady http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/htmltest...lens_math.html "Photons climbing out of a gravitating object become less energetic. This loss of energy is known as a "redshifting", as photons in the visible spectrum would appear more red. Similarly, photons falling into a gravitational field become more energetic and exhibit a blueshifting. The observed energy E_observed at radius r_observed of a photon emitted at radius r_emitted with energy E_emitted is [7] " |

"Bloody Horvath" wrote in message ... Uh... hot air rises. How can water vapor be less dense than air? You ****ing assholes have no idea of science. I'm Horvath and I approve of this post. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Density_of_air "The addition of water vapor to air (making the air humid) reduces the density of the air, which may at first appear contrary to logic. This occurs because the molecular mass of water (18) is less than the molecular mass of air (around 29). For any gas, at a given temperature and pressure, the number of molecules present is constant for a particular volume. So when water molecules (vapor) are introduced to the air, the number of air molecules must reduce by the same number in a given volume, without the pressure or temperature increasing. Hence the mass per unit volume of the gas (its density) decreases." Who is the one lacking in science knowledge? |

Thrust from the engine, of course. Nope. How many aircraft do you think are capable of vertical takeoff? Handwaving. The only possible source for the increase in the gravitational potential energy is the engines. Wings impart no energy that is not their function. There is drag that goes with lift, and engines have to impart energy to overcome it. I have had a commercial pilots license for more than forty years, if you want more handwaving. The question was not "where does the energy come from?". The question was "what force ... does work against gravity ...?" and (save for a trivially small downwards component) that ain't thrust. My own aircraft has a take off mass of 370kg and no thrust whatsoever, and yet I can get it to go up. Not in still air. A glider can climb in still air. Not for very long, normally, but it can certainly climb. No thrust. Or do you have a balloon. Those burners suck fuel like an engine, the chief concern is having a source of energy same as with an engine. How do you think helium balloons work? Ian |

Kelvin-Froude actuator disk theory is your friend. Not needed. The assumption of no friction, remember. The energy has to go somewhere. Do extremely simple arithmetic. The momentum has to go somewhere consistently as well. "Simple" might work, but "simplistic" won't. Sorry. Ian |

You dissolve aluminum chips in lye to get the hydrogen. Really fun if you can get them to ignite at altitude. Cheers Marty |

Michael Faraday built a small scale device working on the same principle. It is not perpertual motion or any crackpot scheme. It does slow down the rotation of the earth a little and causes local weather changes (on a very small scale). Bill If what you say is TRUE, then the rest of us should make it our business to KILL you and everyone who KNOWS about your device......... You have invented a GLOBAL Disaster, as if you pull energy from the Earths Rotational Momentum, then the Earth will obviously STOP Spinning, and Life as we know it will CEASE. Your Device is kill us ALL, and therefore is actually WORSE, for humanity, than GLOBAL WARMING...... Let us all start the GLOBAL Angular Momentum Crisis Insitute to deal with this MONUMENTAL Crisis, in the making. Maybe I can even win the Nobel Peace Prize, for this idea...... Me who wonders just how stupid humanity really is...... |
