I agree with that , but we can retrieve what we lost , Lt Cl Bearden show us the path:
Potential is the nature of energy in the vacuum
this is the same for we as experimentors
So what is the Potential Newman can get from the coil :
copper as a diamagnet can thank the max ionization potential - where Ohm ' law valid :
-->P = N . ΔΦ . qe
where qe = 7,72 eV is Cu ionization potential, we will be taken only one elementary charge .
--> N = m / d \[ Mol \] x Na , where d = 8,96 [g.cm-3 [/] and Na = 6,02. 1023 is Avogadrp number.
I f we take m = 100 kg
P = 105 g / 63,5 g = Mols ~ 1575 mols
we deduce the number of totals 4s1 charges on the coil :
Ne = Na x 1575 ~ 1036 eV !!
That would be the total energy required to strip the valence electron from every atom of Cu in a 100 kg coil, yes... that's the in toto ionization energy (ionization
potential is a deprecated term) for that size coil... but that doesn't imply that we're somehow gaining energy from doing so. We're supplying energy to strip the valence electrons.
Newman supposed that the copper was somehow being converted to energy. It's not. What's happening in the Newman motor is purely a quantum mechanical phenomenon... steal electron orbital momentum (putting them slightly below their natural ground state energy), convert it into electricity, shunt the electricity away, leaving the magnet no other alternative to restore electron quantum state than to pull energy from the quantum vacuum (which at this point has a higher energy than the electron quantum state), use that shunted-away electricity to push the rotor. It is literally converting the orbital momentum of the magnet's electrons into rotational momentum of the magnet itself.
The reason electrons don't usually go below their 1s orbital (their ground state) unless they're driven there by external influences is because at that quantum state, the inflowing energy from the quantum vacuum exactly equals the energy being thrown off via virtual photons (magnetism), as is the case for all invariant mass matter (what physicists have taken to calling a
net zero emission... forgetting that they're tacitly admitting there
is emission, and therefore absorption from the quantum vacuum).
Boyer showed this,
NASA showed this,
Haisch and Ibison showed this,
In essence, we're inducing a sort of Lamb Shift (but rather than a quantum vacuum fluctuation inducing the Lamb Shift, it's the interaction of the permanent magnet and the coil) which causes electron energy state to be lower than its normal ground state would dictate. That energy is shunted away, and the magnet is forced to make up the energy shortfall of its electron's quantum state by extracting energy from the quantum vacuum.
Copper is not being transformed into energy, except for the very small (1/c2 * the amount of energy transferred) amount inherent in every energy transfer.
Copper has a total binding energy of 568 MeV, or 9.02 MeV / nucleon. That 568 MeV is the amount of energy you'd need to provide to break that atom down into its constituent components. The copper atom has a lower energy level than its constituent protons, neutrons and electrons, so you need to provide energy to break it up.
The atomic mass of the protons, neutrons and electrons unbound is 63.52152 u. The copper atom is 62.91367 u. This means that when each copper atom was formed, the formation was exoenergetic.
So just where are you getting the energy to turn those copper atoms back into its constituent components (which you'll need to do prior to unwinding it back into energy), and to run the machine?
And just where are you getting the anti-protons (to address just one of the above components of the copper atom) to unwind the protons back into their constituent quarks? You'll need anti-protons, you know... Fermion Number Conservation is a thing, after all.
And even then, you'll only be breaking the proton down into its constituent quarks (2 up, 1 down)... you'll need anti-quarks to break them down into energy. I assume you have a ready supply of those, too?
