Magnetic Gate

Difficulty of realization 6/10

Magnetic gates are truly fascinating, I had fun doing this experiment because it seems to have extracted energy from nothing, the mythical free energy. As we all (hopefully) know the energy is not created out of thin air. In this experiment, in fact, at the moment when I put the rotor in the balancing point, I load potential energy in the system. This energy is released as kinetic energy in the moment in which i touch the rotor.

In the pictures over here I have tried to outline the forces at play in the different rotor positions. In fact the magnetic fields have complex shapes and the forces are not so simple.

In the second experiment of the video, I inserted 6 rotors in the road of magnetic gates , and the kinetic energy is transferred between the rotors due to the magnetic repulsion.

to build the first experiment i used:

24 neodymium cubes 12mm
1 rod magnet 40x10 mm
2 steel ball 12.5 mm
1 screw for forniture
2 balls magnet 12.5 mm

for the second experiment:

440 rectangle magnets 4x4x15 mm
6 rod magnets 4x25 mm
12 balls magnet 5mm
2 iron rod 1m
