..... a generator operates at constant speed so acceleration is irrelevant
Most generators operate at constant speed which is very well regulated .
It is obvious to me that you don't believe .......... that the heavier rotor requires additional power to rotate at constant speed ...................
Your new rotor may well take more amps to turn at constant speed, but not because it weighs more
bi
What you are saying is that a 2 ton rotor takes the same power to run than a 2 pound rotor. Well that is a first step and not what you had mistakenly said and later corrected. And your reason why? Why does it take more energy? Newton is your answer?
LOL, sorry I can't hold it. Care to try another spin? Do you have anything further? A heavy truck takes more gas than a VW? Hum....? But why?

It's not nice to alter one's quote. The actual quote is below. Eliminating 3 words changes the meaning of the sentence, doesn't it?
...
It is obvious to me that you don't believe Newton and think that the heavier rotor requires additional power to rotate at constant speed due to its larger mass.
Your new rotor may well take more amps to turn at constant speed, but not because it weighs more. ...
Both the 2 ton rotor and the 2 pound rotor require zero power input to continue to rotate at the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. Both the heavy truck and the VW require no fuel to continue motion at the same speed in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. That is what Newton tells us and is fact.
bi,
YOU are the one who is changing MY words by adding the phrase “a constant speed” to the end of my statements. I NEVER said “at a constant speed”
I said it takes more amps to turn a heavier rotor than it does a lighter one because more work is required. This is a FACT. Why don’t you put a VW engine in a semi? Because more weight is attached to the motor shaft so you need more power to turn it. Newton’s law DOES factor in when you talk about rotation at a constant speed but that is NOT what I said in my original quote. It is something YOU added in so you could try to sound superior. All it does is show you up for what you really are.

You said "turn". Not accelerate. And Newton's Law always has the stipulation. Mass is not a factor when turning the rotor. It enters into the equation when changing speed or when affected by an unbalanced force, as Newton says. Generators typically run at constant speed. Why would your machine be different?
... For the LAST time, increased weight of the rotor is an increase in resistance to turning or increased LOAD on the motor. Come back when you have done your research and know what you’re talking about.
Neither of these two statements by you indicate in any way you're talking about acceleration or unbalanced force. Increased weight of the rotor is NOT an increase in resistance to turning, as you said.
If your vehicle was traveling at speed and there was no unbalanced force, it wouldn't need any engine to continue traveling at that same speed in the same direction. That is what Newton teaches. Learn it or ignore it.
Perhaps this current round of back&forth could had been avoided if you had engaged in a civil discussion when I first mentioned it instead of ridiculing me. But you still don't believe Newton, do you?

I absolutely agree with this. The ONLY time mass enters into the equation is when you are changing the speed of a SPECIFIC rotor or when that SPECIFIC rotor is affected by an unbalanced force. Then Newton's laws apply to THAT SPECIFIC (and to others as well) rotor as it sits. But we are talking about comparing two DIFFERENT rotors, not how Newtons' laws apply to one rotor. One rotor is light. One rotor is heavy. The power needed to accelerate one rotor to a specific speed and maintain it is different than the power needed to accelerate the OTHER rotor to a specific speed and maintain it. When both are running at exactly the same speed as maintained by the motor, one will draw MORE amps. Just like it takes more power to drive a VW bug at 30 miles per hour on a level road than it does to drive a semi at 30 mile per hour on a level road. Moving mass over distance requires energy. Moving MORE mass over that SAME distance requires MORE energy. Just because a rotor is ROUND doesn't mean there is no mass there that has to be moved to rotate it. You can quote anybody you want, but you cannot change the FACTS with theories. I understand EXACTLY what Newton teaches. Apparently you don't.
As to how this discussion began. As I recall, it began because you LIED and said I told you I know more than Newton, which I never said. Never. And you know it. And you still haven't admitted that I never said it. BUT whether you admit it or NOT the fact is, you lied. You keep trying to put those words in my mouth, but they don't fit, and never will.
Both the heavy truck and the VW require no fuel to continue motion at the same speed in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. That is what Newton tells us and is fact.

How does it feel? Every post for 5 + years you have been changing our words around to suit.
How do you like it? Still your way of picking out small details without adding the entire amount is no different. Here let me show you how to talk right.
A 10ton truck gets 1 mpg going down the road at 75mph
A 1 ton VW gets 100 mpg going down the road at 75 mph
The big truck takes 100X more to run than the VW, but it doesn't cost any more than that as long as you don't go faster? HUH? Okay yeah, am I missing something here. It stays the same? Yeah it stays the same costing the truck 100X more but they are both running the same but not speeding up? HUH? Yeah

Turion,
I don't have to put words in your mouth. You do it. In the first paragraph above you say you agree with Newton but then go on a few sentences later and totally contradict what he says in his first law of motion. So doesn't than mean that you think that you know more about physics of motion than Sir Isaac? How does that simple conclusion on my part constitute a lie? Seems valid to me.
You're entitled to disagree with Newton. You disagree with a lot of experts and established principles of physics from what I see you post. I try to give the members and readers the correct interpretation as I see it. Hopefully they will consider both views, research and study, or at least think about it instead of blindly following you.

It's the unbalanced forces which require the energy to do the work not the mass. Ask a physics professor or read a physics textbook.
... Both the heavy truck and the VW require no fuel to continue motion at the same speed in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. That is what Newton tells us and is fact.
You mean like this. This is the same thing, good luck with that. Yeah right!!
This is a direct quote. As long as nothing is changed?
So once I get up to speed FREE ENERGY?????Pull the fuel line at speed?
Better to experiment than sit around trying to figure out the math.
bi,
You are assuming the rotor resides in an alternate reality where no friction with air exists, no bearings are required, the motor itself will spin forever once you kill the power. I don’t live in that world, neither do you, and what do you know, neither does my rotor! If you ever did an ACTUAL experiment on the bench, your perception of reality might change. But you go right on living in your little dream world. Is Newton there with you?
The larger rotor requires more and to turn. Period.
You said I “told” you I know more than Newton. I never “told” you any such thing. That is, and alway will be, a lie on your part. Keep trying to spin your way out bi. You’re going to look like a pretzel.

There you go again. Changing your story. I, and Newton, talk about mass. You originally said "heavier" meaning increased mass. Now you say "larger" meaning increased size. I guess you see no difference.
And you did tell me and continue to tell me you're right and Newton is wrong on the subject. Which means that you think you know more than Newton on the subject. I see no lie on my part. Just a true observation.

Once again, you lie. I did not change my story. YOU are quoting a different post than the original to support YOUR side of the story. On old tactic you continue to try and use. My original statement was, and I quote:
"The rotor he is currently using is heavier than my original rotor so it may require more amps to turn it. It’s weight is almost double." As you can see, I CLEARLY said HEAVIER, not LARGER. And and later I referred to the LARGER rotor to differentiate between the two, because that is the one with MORE MAGNETS IN IT, WHICH WOULD DEFINITELY MAKE IT WEIGH MORE, and has nothing to do with not knowing the difference between "heavier" and "larger". Once again. you try to focus on some tiny thing to bail yourself out from being absolutely WRONG. But it isn't working. Wrong again.
And yet ANOTHER lie. I did NOT just tell you nor do I continue to tell you I am right and Newton is wrong. You're mixing up two different things here. Its like the difference between BELIEVING you're and idiot and SAYING you're an idiot. How YOU interpret what I say is YOUR problem. You don't know what I "think." You are not privy to what is inside my head, so you do not know what I THINK. You only know what I say. I never said I know more than Newton. How many times do we have to catch you in the same lie?
Do you know what the difference is between an observation and a conclusion?
Obviously not.
You have observed my statements
You have drawn your own conclusion
Then you have stated your conclusion as "Just a true observation"
Wrong on TWO counts.
It is not an observation. It is not true.
They have dictionaries on line. You can look up the difference between an observation and a conclusion.
I promise. Give it a try.
Generally you have Observation
Then possibly hypothesis
Then experimentation or investigation
Then conclusion.
But not you. You jump right to conclusion
How scientific of you.
Oh, and the heavier, LARGER rotor takes more amps to turn than the light, SMALLER rotor. Don't want you to forget that part, even though you are doing your VERY BEST to derail the argument.
