The pressure at point at or magnetic wall A is equal to the weight you are trying to shift in the lower rod in yellow B

But as described, rotational dynamics, just like putting your finger in and trying to turn the wheel is harder we are simply moving the dynamic force further out as in the upper rod without changing the weight, the over rotation or ease of movement from the outer circle is easier yet A does not alter in strength. Thus you can break the wall, the rod shifts as normal without the use of an electromagnet.

try the single hanging arm exercise as described to get your rod length and weight over the magnets you are using

your basic rod and tube shape

Archer THANK YOU   Chet PS Time to build !! love it

technically this is what dusty is already using minus another arm he is extending the tubes at certain points but appears further calibration is needed ...

@ archer

What is the benefit of the rod and tube vs the tube just extending itself unless of course the weight in the end moving closer to the center causes less drag...

The best thing I can relate these expiriments to is spinning on a merry go round man twords the center there is actually less force but at the ends there is loads of pull as this thing spins so the further you get out the more pull you provide...

So ok at key points you have magnets to pull the rod out further and push the thing in this is a possibility...

Archer I am very curious and look forward to seeing your final build.

the reason you cant make the tubes longer is because you would have to make the rods longer requiring more paower to move the rods, as you increase the power yopu simply increase the strength of the wall, this has no additional weight but has over rotation that was not previously there, this will break the wall, thus the rod will pass over the wall edge and be pushed upward and be caught by the upper earth arc of magnets on the opposing side as seen it the video, you only have to get the hold right as dusty has done, tey avoid the satellite (rod) being sucked into the gravity (magnetiic pull) of the earth as was seen by that one rod.

i am reposting the link on each page so people can keep up to date with him.

Oh and if he or anyone else gets it running, whilst they did not design the physics principles no effort should go unrewarded and they should get the 5000 dollars. I'm sure i will be rewarded in some way down the track. In any event they will still be famous into the bargain.

Looks like dusty is ahead by a length, and approaching the home turn.
