A DEVICE FOR TESTING SINGLE
AND DOUBLE OSCILLATIONS
This is a finished product, or a toy,
a creative toy.
It can also be used for educational
purposes.
The device is planned for production
and it can be ordered in various sizes.
Smaller for individual use, and larger
for schools, universities, institutes etc.
It can be used to witness certain
unusual phenomena,
which differ from present energy
transfer that uses transmission.
On one side, there is an adjustable
console,
and on the other the oscillating
physical pendulum.
Because of the minor resistance,
some hundred oscillations are needed
for the pendulum to stop again.
On the other side, we have the option
of adjusting the elastic wire,
which also takes some hundred
oscillations to stop.
To see it better it is possible to put
a light object
on a wire in order to see the length
of oscillations.
We can burden the pendulum by placing
a piece of paper on it
which crates certain drag.
We'll see what happens next.
In a very short time, just a couple of
seconds
drag causes drastic amortization of
oscillations.
Let's try a similar experiment with the
elastic wire,
which has minor amortization during
free movement.
There will be a minor amortization,
if the drag is minor.
Then, oscillations will be long again.
If we place a piece of paper horizontally,
we will see the difference in the length
of oscillations.
Let's see that. OK.
Now, with a major drag, drastic
amortization occurs sooner.
Therefore, we see slowing down because of
the drag, instead of hundred oscillations.
All of this complies with laws of physics.
However, let's see what happens with
double oscillations.
The pendulum causes the wire to
oscillate.
However, if the wire starts to
oscillate first,
the pendulum will not oscillate in its
usual way.
Then, there is another unusual occurrence.
If we move the pendulum,
and stop the wire from moving,
the pendulum continues with oscillations,
whether we stop the double oscillator
or not.
This is an unusual occurrence, which does
not happen with transmission of energy
using cogwheels, chains or belts.
Now, since we have...we have to
reiterate.
Major drag creates larger amortization,
i.e. everything stops in few seconds.
Mechanical work takes over the energy
created by the elastic wire.
The same should happen if the pendulum
is out of balance.
Mechanical work, i.e. drag, should stop
the pendulum.
But, that is not what happens.
Amortization is minor.
Energy is reduced with every cycle,
which would not be the case,
if the pendulum or the elastic wire were
directly burdened.
We can use adjustments and see this
in various cases.
In this, for example.
The oscillation of a burdened pendulum
does not have major amortization,
which is very important, since it can be
used for a more efficient mechanism,
which does not follow current postulates.
We can repeat it. The pendulum
can be easily removed.
We will see that drastic amortization
or decrease of energy occurs because
of the drag.
However, in this case, it does not happen.
