Can you move in space?

This only refers to the momentum of the emp. You haven’t addressed the magnetic field component of the emp which is what causes the force on wire B when wire B carries a current.

That is like saying that I am only considering the momentum of the rock leaving the craft instead of the force on the wall it was thrown at.

Because it is (still) irrelevant.

You are asking for a reference that uses the emp the way i am proposing which hasn’t been done before.

Does that mean that new physical formulas are required? Or that you believe there are no experiments done that resembles your idea?

But I have posted a reference for every part of my system and each part has been supported.

No.

You have an idea requiring ultra short EMPs between wires. The pulses described are so short that the time for current running along the length of the wire might need to be addressed*. Please provide some evidence that F = I x L x B is applicable for such a short pulse.

It’s not irrelevant, Because in the rock analogy as for the emp, the rocks also have a magnetic field, I’ve explained and given references to how a magnetic fields effect wires carrying a current and Ive given references to show that emp has a magnetic field component, how is this irrelevant?

Because the only thing that is relevant is the momentum of the rock (or EMP) leaving the craft.

This is why it makes a difference if the whole thing is in a box. I know you don't understand this. But I have tried to explain it every way I can think of....

It was said somewhere that everything has been tried before, I can’t find any experiments or discussions about this.

The emp carries a magnetic field as referenced already, the force on a wire carrying a current in a magnetic field is determined with F = I x L x B, as it would seem this hasn’t been tried before, there is enough evidence from related studies with continuous currents to try this

You haven’t actually explained why it won’t work in a box

I LITERALLY JUST EXPLAINED IT.

For the bazillionth(*) time.

(*) Some exaggeration may have been used for effect.

Let me explain again: Because the only thing that is relevant is the momentum of the rock (or EMP) leaving the craft. (If it is in a box, then the rock (or pulse) cannot leave.)

And what about the magnetic field effect on the current carrying wire? Is this some kind of closed loop logic because its been assumed to not work in a box? Let’s assume it does work in a box, does the magnetic field component produce a force on the current carrying wire now?

...but getting to be less and less of an exaggeration as we go...will be understatement very soon...

First off your assuming an incredibly short pulse is going to stay with the same current and length as the current carrying wire that generates the field. You have disconnected the field source yet apply a formula that is specific to a continuous source.

Working off that assumption. Once you disconnect the source you have no path to ground which enables the current flow from the source  So how can the pulse possibly have the same current ?

Why do you think the magnetic field is constant along the cable B if the pulse is so short that it is causally disconnected from the wire A? Please provide evidence that F = I x L x B is relevant for such short pulses and that the force can occur at cable B without having a counter force on cable A as you seem to suggest.

Lets assume momentum is not conserved?

No, lets not.

Ignoring the real practical problems that others have pointed out, yes. It produces a force in the box. It produces a force without the box. That is why it is not relevant.

As this hasn’t been tried before, I’m applying the most relevant formula, its fair to a assume that segment of the continuous magnetic field will retain the same properties.

I’m not sure what you mean here?

Sending a pulse into space where the signal varies from that wire would be very similar to an antenna. There is a series of antenna formulas that show the power is not the same as the supplied power. There is power losses due to directivity etc.

The closest type of antenna that matches your scenario would be an omnidirectional antenna. 

Go ahead Google the radiated power of an omnidirectional antenna you will see it has huge power losses. Secondly the waveform will have different directional components than a current carrying wire.

The EM field of a current carrying wire is not the same as a radiated EM waveform.

The loss of continuous power supply and ground path is but one factor as to why the two are different. The other being differences in the transverse and longitudinal components.

Ah .. here’s the trap, so if momentum isn’t conserved because your rock analogy doesn’t work inside the box, the magnetic field component does still work inside the box. As the force on a current carrying wire in a magnetic field is a known thing, it would now seem that the momentum of the emp is irrelevant factor and the only part that’s now relevant is the magnetic field acting on the current carrying wire, thanks Strange.

Obviously the greater the distance the greater the distortion, Im talking about very short distance here

I haven’t ignored this i just haven’t addressed this yet. The wires do not necessarily have to be in a loop or coil formation. The wires could be aligned in a zig zag type formation where the wire feeds in from the top and comes out from the bottom.

“Loop” is a topological term here, not a geometric one

Moderator Note

After discussion with other mods, we have decided that we’ve reached the point where this is no longer fruitful. We probably hit that point long ago, but there were occasional hints that progress might be in the works. Alas, that’s not the case, as we keep hitting the same wall, and the OP refuses to learn any physics. Looking stuff up on wikipedia is not an acceptable substitute.

Don’t bring this topic up again.
