Cute toy! Noisy as heck, but still pretty neat. -
Thats actually really cool.

Thats cool . Does it need to be a battery or can you use a piece of steel?Comment

Cool! At the moment I'm scratching my head as to how it works. Brain will kick in gear soon I think
In the mean time.... is the copper wire bare or enameled? Is a battery needed or as shylo mentioned can it be something else? I will assume the battery is needed otherwise that would clearly be essentially perpetual motion. Would this also work in a copper pipe? Lastly but perhaps most importantly are the magnets N-S-battery-N-S or the opposite like N-S-battery-S-N ? Still waiting for brain to engage....

The battery powers the coil, which propels the magnets.Originally posted by shylo View PostComment

as long as one set is S on one END, and N on the other.
More people need to think about inertia and acceleration (charge, centripetal, convergent)........... VS. motion and force (discharge, centrifugal, divergence)
how it works is as simple as loss of inertia ("charge") = FORCE and MOTION
course U need a battery. too big a battery and the weight is an issue and it wont move, obviously.
bare wire, however enameled should work.Last edited by TheoriaApophasis; 12-04-2014, 12:01 AM.Comment

What would happen if you had pickup coils on plastic spools with the track running through the spools all around the track. It would output energy at each coil right?

if you insert the train the other direction,
will it act the same ?Comment

How it works
No, it is not obvious. But, when you know how to think and actually THINK about it, it is not that hard. So, here is a very simple way to explain it. Pay attention, because I don't promise to explain my explanation.
The wire is NOT insulated and the magnets are NOT coated with a non conducting material. A battery is required to provide power. Current does not flow until the battery-magnet "car" energizes the copper wire forming a local electro magnet around the "car". Visualize the current flow. I can describe it in words but I can't do the visualization part. You are on your own with that.
The magnets are now not entirely in the magnetic field, nor are they entirely out of the field. But, they are close enough to be subject to the force of the magnetic field created due to the current. As the car moves, the local magnetic field moves with the car, driven by the current from the battery.
Sorry, but you can't coat the wire with insulation. You could build a more efficient version with lower friction, better electrical contacts, etc. But I really don't see anything terribly out of the ordinary here, just a very clever application of conventional principles. Thanks for sharing.There is a reason why science has been successful and technology is widespread. Don't be afraid to do the math and apply the laws of physics.Comment

just paper and glue.
ABCDE are not "extra-ordinary" ,........but how they are arranged and used and applied IS, ......

"cool" (sic)
etc etc etc.
Everything in the cosmos is in an ETHER MODALITY, either divergent (magnetic) or CONVERGENT (dielectric, gravitational), or a hybrid (electrical).
The discharge of a charge (from the batt) is = FORCE and MOTION.
EVERYTHING is a pressure gradient mediation of Ether field-modality pressures. Or as the Plumbers Unions all say "crap rolls downhill"
The "train" isnt moving (well of course it "is") so much as it is chasing a 'SINK(hole)' in the Ether itself.
Define the discharge of inertia in the "train" which has no moving parts.
The "train" itself is NO DIFFERENT than magnetic centrifugal and centripetal reciprocation. Charge divergence (= discharge) which is definitionally and denotatively force, motion and SPACE (measured AS and IN our empirical construct of time).
Soooo, why doesnt the "train" move without the coil? (not the OBVIOUS answer).
What does the coil facilitate?
What therefore is a spatial circuit within and BY WHICH motion and force are allowed to manifest (via the coil) ?
I love how simple things confound us 'all' (and that they dont teach ANYTHING important in college).

started another
Ken
I did start a topic here as well
TA's $3.00 magnet-battery copper-coil "train" Build one.
and here .
TA's 3 dollar train build
thx

Anything to do with the fact that copper is a dielectric reflector ?Comment
