Gravity CAN do Work

[mondrasek]

Gabriele,

Sorry, but there is no doubt that the system is NOT Overunity.  There is a clear source of Energy involved.  That source is apparently Gravity. 

The problem with what I have just said is that Gravity is taught to NOT be a source of Energy (ie. Cannot do Work).

If you have a question about "tolerances" then please let us all know exactly what you think might be wrong.

Thanks,

M.

Edited to add:  You have changed your post that questions the "tolerances" so please feel free to ignore this reply.

Bump.

PS. Australia starts coming on line when?  Also, I hope the earthquake near NZ did not cause any noticeable negative effects to our friends there.

Webby1,
Yeah, I'm sorry.  I did not give suggestions on the "correct" or "best" way to build a real world embodiment of the sim only because I have no idea what advice could be relevant!
I have only reproduced what I believe has been shown (the construction being discussed) in a computer simulation program.
My own interpretation was to MAXIMIZE the roller arm to the limit of what the PABB (Parallel Arm Balance Beam) (or Roberval balance as Rafael was so quick to recognize) could do.
It might not be optimal as far as Work is concerned .
But that was just my initial and probably simplistic idea about how to optimize this system.

make a dam hydroelectric dam and work off that dam it!!!

to be honest, it will require a trillion fold more energy which nature can't produce to reach another earth like planet. this is the goal of all humans trying to survive the next extinction of earth. we are happy your with your god and are dead now, less people to interfere with in real life!!!
