I need to clarify some things here.
1. Unless and until I am linked to or given data about DePalma's ball, I am going solely off of the falling gyroscope test. They are both designed to test the exact same theorized effect, so one can stand in place of the other for positive or negative results.
Please, do not continue quoting an experiment that just as well could've come from someones imagination/ camera trickery.
2. If you all really think that this piece of paper of mine doesn't qualify me, that's OK by me.
So instead of attacking my credentials, please focus on the math. As I said before, it stands alone from those who do it.
3. Aaron, 80% of your post really is just arguing semantics and irrelevant points. You usually misunderstand me, then label it on my not understanding you. This is a completely stupid way to go about a discussion, and were I to fully counter and defend myself, it would take a LOT of space and more time than I'm willing to throw at it. There are only two main points I feel the urge to correct.
I was actually trying to lighten the mood a bit, not to condescend. If that's how you took it, you simply demonstrate that you have very thin skin to a post that goes against what you say.
Yes, you said what you quoted. You also said...
And this is what I was referring to.
So you won't go into your model to disprove mine or validate yours because I don't believe what you believe. Hence my statement, "you've even explicitly stated that you won't try to prove or disprove, instead relying on your own belief that you are right". Explicitly is the only word wrong in my sentence that should've been omitted. The rest of the sentence is completely valid and you're again showing your thin skin.
But despite the large amount of useless words I've read, there has ACTUALLY been sound logic used against my position.
While the first paragraph is wrong in that it is not pure speculation (Seriously, did you ever try dropping a water bottle and looking at it Aaron?), the second paragraph is a perfectly valid point, the only one pertaining to my second post so far.
In the next couple of days, I'll come back and post a mathematical test using very sane real world assumptions demonstrating that the container likely did tilt more without the gyroscope running than with it on.
But before I do, you guys need to understand the goal of this. It's to cast very reasonable doubt that the conclusion of the falling gyro test is wrong, instead showing that their results can be duplicated using known aerodynamic forces that they overlooked.
In short, I believe that the force they claim to have determined that acts in the direction of gravity is better explained as a LACK of aerodynamic forces acting in the opposite direction.
And until someone here says that the falling gyroscope test is not a direct analog to DePalma's theoretical test (still waiting on data/link/anything besides testimonial), casting doubt on the falling gyro test casts doubt on them both. That's just science.
[Oh, and the next few lines are a joke. I need to clarify that otherwise panties'll bind like no other in here ]
And I Like Science.
And to help keep you occupied in my absence, Aaron, the answer to your question
1.56E-8 ft*lbf
Now go ahead and 'destroy' my ideas. Make me feel like this with your wisdom.
