Advanced and Delayed magnetic field's.

You guys are way off topic.... and a lil ignorant  Besides, I have no doubt about Tinman being able to travel FTL, considering the proven fact that he can harvest energy that is yet to be generated in the near future, as seen in vid 1 ... BTW. How's that going, any updates?

Hi Dieter.
I got a little side tracked with this buoyancy thing,and have to show some others a little experiment i did today. i will get back to that one ASAP,but my free time is in very short supply these day's. I need to rewind the coils with a finer wire,and make sure the coupling between the two cores is exact-no air gap's. I also need to wind a couple of extra coils on the core,so as i can see when the magnetic field is passing through each coil.

Yes, all the measurements of the energy required to accelerate particles to high fractions of c show exponentially greater energy as one approaches c.  No drop off in that exponential climb has shown up.

...all the measurements of the electromagnetic energy required to accelerate charged particles to high fractions of c show exponentially smaller acceleration as one approaches c.

When the acceleration of charged particles decreases with speed there are two possible explanations according to Newton's 2^nd law:
a = F/m

1) Mass increases with speed
2) Force decreases with speed

Einstein picked #1

That is all true.  However, from a standpoint of what obstacles make light speed or FTL travel challenging we don't have to resolve whether it is one, the other or both.  In any case the energy required to accelerate climbs exponentially without any indication of an upper limit.

What about photons?

When I turn on my flashlight, I am accelerating a large number of photons from 0 to light speed almost instantaneously.

In college we learned that photons have "mass" as proved by some university experiments in the 70's.  (I do not recall which one)

So, my question is, when these photons reach light speed, what happens/happened to their mass?  If they indeed have mass, then how did they reach the speed of light in the first place?  Was there a transformation of some kind?

I still believe in Einstein, I am sure it is my understanding that is at fault here but...after reading the previous posts, this thought just occurred to me.

So, how do this happen?

Thanks,

Bill
