Downlord4spaceflight Posted September 25 Posted September 25 (edited) I always believed that stupid questions dont excist, just stupid answers. If In a closed alluminium cube with supercooled mercury at the top and a high performance electric magnetic field at the bottum. Will the upgoing lift "because it is in a closed space" lift the cube with mercury and the magnetic field generator and would that even be theoreticly possible or is the idea so unbelievable that it hasnt even been explored? Or put it in a tube rhe mercury and use the magnetic field to make the mercury lift to the top of tube (tube not filled full) and use the kinetic energy from the mercury hitting the top of tube to create lift gor the tube by pulsing the mercury.

npts2020 Posted September 26 Posted September 26 It seems like you are trying to describe a maglev system which doesn't even require supercooling to lift the object in question, only certain materials.

No he, like the rest of us, was unable to work out what you were talking about because the question was so badly written - not just the English but the apparent confusion about the physical scenario you were trying to describe. That's why you got no other responses. But thanks for rewriting a new question which is easier to understand. You will see I have replied to it already. I hope others may do likewise. It's an interesting topic. (By the way, anyone who has brought up a small child - or indeed spent time on a science forum - knows there most definitely are stupid questions. 🙂)
