Magnetic Floatation

01/31/2007 1:37 PM

I'm curious to know if neodymium magnets can interact with the negative energy of a magnetron (from a microwave).

Magnecraft7:

Could you explain why just neodymium magnets and what you mean by negative energy?

Well, the way I see it is this, Neodymium magnets are, I think, the most powerful rare earth magnets around. I would be using them in a permanent fixture. The negative energy is supposedly produced by the magnetron if I'm not mistaking. I'll have to determine that myself. I have something drawn out on this that should make it work if the magnetron does what I want it to, if not, I have another plan.

Hmmmmmmm negative energy from a magnetron huh?

Does that mean a magnetron acts like a battery, supplying energy, or like a load, consuming energy??

By the way what is negative energy?

John.

Energy is energy. One can refer to negative energy when dealing with things like heat transfer for example. The energy itself is not "negative". The word "negative" is refering to the direction of energy flow.

ie: A cup of hot coffee in a cold room will undergo a negative change in internal energy, where the air in the room will undergo a positive change in energy. It's just relative to how you are analyzing your system

Guest, I am more interested in what the questioner believes is negative energy and why it should come from a magnetron?

Don't you only have force and direction with magnetism, with direction defined as north and south? Is there a way to project magnetic force? Haven't heard of it.
