Ghideon Posted October 16, 2020 Posted October 16, 2020 2 minutes ago, John2020 said: No. Please tell me, you are the expert along with all others. Ok I will tell you: the shape does not matter. As far as I can tell from my understanding of physics there is no "sweet spot" where current mainstream application of Newton fails. In other words your invented effect does not exist. Regardless of any shape. You need to provide the definition of the required shape that makes your device work and display the non-mainstream behaviour. Can I use one single ball, fixed inside the nut, as a single contact point between nut and bolt? And still get the effect you claim? Im still trying to locate a more exact point where standard use of Newton os supposed to fail and your "alternative interpretation" is required.

The required shaped is the helix for the trajectory of the threads contacts. Proceed with your proposal and make a complete analysis if you like. Let us see what may come out of this. 4 minutes ago, Ghideon said: Im still trying to locate a more exact point where standard use of Newton os supposed to fail and your "alternative interpretation" is required. It is not a point but how you handle this problem. The mistake according to my view is that you (and all others) assume the nut has additionally a kinetic energy or a real momentum, which is not true. Again, none replied to what I shared about the crankshaft. Replacing the mechanism with a crankshaft then we come to your words (Newton's 3rd law). See my reply about the gun where there I justify where is the problem in your approach about the construction in Fig.1-Upper as also I introduce a counter example with a crankshaft:

So the important thing is the threads of the bolt (helix shape)? the shape inside the nut is not important at all as longs it have at least one contact point sliding along the threads of the bolt. So the minimum requirement is any shape, guided by the support rods in fig 1, accelerated by the bolt's treads. Ok?

To say otherwise is a fabrication, not physics But in our case we have conversion and not plus kinetic energy. We have rotational to kinetic energy where the latter is not caused by a real force.

Yes, you are, when you say it’s reactionless. The reaction force is why there’s a recoil, which moves the other mass. The two are connected. Deny one, and you deny the other.

(you aren’t) I repeat it because none replied to it. The crankshaft mechanism will result to a real linear motion of the nut that allows a collinear reaction, in other words there the Newton's 3rd law and the conservation of momentum follow each other. In the case of the translation screw, on mass displacement (coming not from a real rectilinear force) the reaction is just the rotation of the screw. No mass transfer is evident with the same mechanism in the other direction. From the moment the path is not linear but dictated by the helical topology of the screw threads then, any reaction should comply with this limitation (path). It implies you cannot have linear reaction (in contrast when the mechanism is a crankshaft) along the axis of rotation. 20 minutes ago, swansont said: Yes, you are, when you say it’s reactionless.

Ghideon Posted October 16, 2020 Posted October 16, 2020 (edited) Here is an illustration @John2020, I have reused fig 1 to make it more clear which case we discuss. I have made part of the nut transparent so we see the exact shape inside. The nut is not threaded inside but has one point touching the bolt's thread; the triangular element is touching the bolt. Material fatigue would probably be issue in a real case but should not affect the analyse at this stage. When the bolt is turning the nut is pushed along the guide rails. Nut is not rotating and pushed by this one point of contact. This setup should behave according to your claims? The rotating thread and the point of contact on the nut is frictionless; we may now look at action/ reaction pairs etc required to get an explanation? Edited October 16, 2020 by Ghideon clarified a sentence. Removed an unclear use of word force.

The action-reaction pair (normal forces) in the details analysis are expected to be perpendicular to the inclination of the thread. Right? There is no friction so the fact that the thread on the bold is doing a sliding movement agains the point of contact does not matter. Illustrating with the extreme case; if I had made a stupid mistake and had used a cylinder with circular groves instead of a nut with threads: There is no angle, just a point of contact, sliding frictionless along the same circular groove, over and over. The important thing is that the sliding movement does not imply force, only the angle of contact. Ok? I think this agree with your statement I quoted. Additional details to verify: So the situation is described by the following: the thread is illustrated by a grey line. The force that acts on the nut (point of contact) is the normal force N perpendicular to the plane of the thread. N may vary in magnitude due to acceleration but the direction is constant. Do we agree that this is a correct description? I have not added forces from guide rails acting on the nut. Also note that force acting on bolt is not added at this time.

But if you are uncertain, please double check* that your proposed effect still will emerge. As the sliding motion of the thread has no effect on the outcome, the thing that matters is the angle of the contact between the object that pushes the nut (acting at the point of contact). This means that there is no need for a rotation, the trick is a sloped shape makes the normal force push at an angle and not along the direction of travel of the nut. Ok? This sloped shape of course has to be moving, powered by something, to push the nut. *) there is also a great chance that I make a mistake at some point, this kind of analysis is not part of my day job at this time.

In the case of the translation screw, on mass displacement (coming not from a real rectilinear force) There is a real force. You’re just denying it’s there. Because of some nonsense you made up. Quote the reaction is just the rotation of the screw. No. The screw actually pushes on the bolt. Quote No mass transfer is evident with the same mechanism in the other direction. In Narnia, perhaps. Meanwhile, in this universe, Newton’s 3rd law holds, and there is a reaction force that pushes mass in the other diarection. Go ahead and build your device and prove your fictional scenario. That’s the only way to show you’re right. Quote From the moment the path is not linear but dictated by the helical topology of the screw threads then, any reaction should comply with this limitation (path). It implies you cannot have linear reaction (in contrast when the mechanism is a crankshaft) along the axis of rotation. The center of mass does not move in a helix. Force and velocity don’t have to be in the same direction, but I’ve already shown the force diagram giving a net force along the axis. Newtonian physics says there’s a force.

It is a contradiction. An object moving in a circle at constant speed has a force directed to the center of the circle, perpendicular to the velocity. The reaction force is in the opposite direction (e.g. you pull on a rope, the rope pulls you, the mass swings in a circle.)

The reaction force is in the opposite direction (e.g. you pull on a rope, the rope pulls you, the mass swings in a circle.) But in our case the force directed to the center of the circle is not a contact force. For example the screw could have threads but empty inner volume (like a cylinder with threads imprinted on its surface). This is also the reason the path I mentioned above is crucial because only contact forces are relevant to the action-reaction principle along with the direction of the velocity that must comply with it. 00:14 (UTC), Saturday 17 October 2020 Edited October 17, 2020 by John2020
