No: for 4 m/sec you will need to lift the bob to the same height. The angle is less in the larger pendulums but the height is the same. One of the YouTube  Delburt Phend videos shoes an interrupted pendulum with the rise being maintained; so it has to be equal on both sides.

Springs don’t work.

I was not proposing a momentum transfer in this 3 pendulum discussion. I was only pointing out that the same linear Newtonian momentum (40 units) can be in any size pendulum. The three pendulums have a different length and a different angular momentum: for the same real momentum (40 kg m/sec)

A momentum transfer does however occur in a cylinder and spheres. The momentum of the large mass transfers to the small mass.  Did you see this one? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YaUmzekdxTQ  It transfers the motion twice.

ok, looks like I misunderstood this.


Did you test springs in practical setups ? I did, but there are certain problems which can not mechanically be solved . one problem is the almost unbelievable acceleration a spring is able to produce upon being released. It can reach 330 m/s² and more which means that mechanically it is almost
impossible to construct a release-mechanism which is fast enough to get out of the way of the accelerating spring. Most of  the momentum
is eaten up by the inertia of the mechanism.

Anyway...yes I saw your double yo-yo despin. In my small flywheel I saw the ransfer of momentum more than  3 times ( back and forth between
big and small mass) It must do so because the small mass stays connected.

It has been a long time since I investigated springs; but you sight the problems. I think another drawback was the need to increase the time over which the force acts; and springs are not a uniform force field. Half why down a spring you have half the force; half why down an Atwood’s you still have the same force exerted by the extra mass.

Good work on your triple stops.

This was a very important experiment, that not only demonstrates the conservation of momentum, but when performed on board Space Lab, helped NASA solve the problem of what happens when a tethered object can affect the motion of a space craft when the two have different relative velocities.

Heres an experiment:


An electrically excited laser, with no directional guide such that it radiates spherically.
Then completely enclosed in a thermal housing, to allow the direct conversion of atomic excitation into heat.


Is this more efficient than the carnot cycle for say, heating our homes?

An energy producing experiment is found in ‘figure 7’ in http://www.gyroscopes.org/masstran.asp. The title “mass transfer Laithwaite W.R.C. Dawson” A SYSTEM FOR THE TRANSFER OF MASS DERIVED FROM
THE PRINCIPLE OF CONSERVATION OF MOMENTUM’ indicates that they expect momentum to be conserved by the masses transferring motion in figure 7.

From the overhead view the masses are initially moving up and down. The momentum to be shared with the center block is ‘both masses time their speed’. If the center block has the same mass as the two pucks then the mass in motion will be twice as much.

When the mass is twice as much, and the momentum remains the same, then the velocity must drop to one half. At half the velocity the energy is half. So, the system in figure 7 has half the energy when the puck masses are fully extended up and down and the center block has half the momentum.

But from the position of full extension the masses come back around to the left. Their velocity times their mass is the same as their initial momentum. The center block is again stopped, and the energy of the extended masses is recovered in the left spring. That recovered energy is said to be the same as the initial energy. 

You could start the experiment where the small masses are fully extended, and the block is in motion. From this half energy position, you can go to the full energy position and double your energy per cycle. This is very significant because it proves that the law of conservation of energy is false, and that energy can be made in the lab.

So, why do debunkers of perpetual motion not sight experiments like this; but they would rather sight known frauds.

Starting at the half point, you would have to input half of the final energy to increase the momentum enough to reach the final state, but only if it was in motion.
From a state of 0 momentum: the full energy is required from half to final state transition

Take the example of 2 screwdrivers and two wrenches of different sizes.


At a particular moment, there is enough momentum in the larger wrench to shatter bone.
But you had to input more than that to get the system up to speed

The “ideal case” is a boomerang.
It returns with close to 99% of its initial energy.


This is because of its shape and the angular momentum.
Air pressure is different in the top than the bottom
And also the angle gives it additional torque on top of the ‘throw’


This gives it lift and conservation of energy.
Gravity, being a conservative field, returned all of that to it.
The >1% loss is from wind resistance, which can be reduced further with wax


The end result when it hits you in the head…
Is almost exactly the same momentum you imparted when you threw it


Which is your body mass + the mass of the weapon * velocity

If the block were fixed the speed of each puck would be uniform throughout. At one point the pucks are moving in the same direction. And the pucks do not slow each other down or remove each other's momentum. So, the initial momentum is equal to the final momentum which is equal to the middle momentum. And the title states that the experiment is about momentum conservation.

You have to admit to yourself that you do not know what the velocity of the block is going to be; you have never seen data for such an experiment. But there are some really good clues.

It is experimentally proven that a small mass cannot give its kinetic energy to a larger mass. When a small mass interacts with a larger mass a large quantity of kinetic energy disappears from motion. You pretend that this motion lost in collisions is lost to heat; but no matter where it goes you cannot get it back.

In ‘figure 7’ can the energy reduce to half in the middle of the experiment and then come back again at the end of the experiment. There is not mechanism for this to occur.

I agree that the energy at the beginning and end of the experiment are the same. But this is a consequence of the momentum being conserved not a consequence of energy being conserved.

So now I have a question for you. A 1000 kg Mercedes is moving north, at 35 m/sec, on interstate 75; and a 1000 kg Mercedes is moving south at 35 m/sec on the same interstate. What is the momentum of the system?

You could divide ‘figure 7’ in half horizontally and let the block become a linear bearing. The puck moving up would accelerate the bearing to the right until full extension. Then the puck would accelerate the bearing to the left until the bearing stopped. While in motion the bearing would have a portion of the puck's initial momentum. While the bearing is being stopped the momentum is given back to the puck. This allows the initial momentum to be equal to the final momentum. This would mean that the velocity is the same and the kinetic energy would be the same.

But if you use this same bearing arrangement and try to conserve energy you will find the about ½ of the energy disappears in the middle of the experiment. And there is no way to get it back.

Energy is not a conserved quantity, and this fact is worth several trillion dollars. I do not know if ‘figure 7’ is a thought experiment or if Laithwaite did an experiment like it. I know that he was an experimental scientist. And I also know that the 'cylinder and spheres' do this very thing.

Your missing the point here.
You cannot simply choose to start from the middle.
You must impart the momentum into the system to reach this state.


And you are absolutely correct.
I my self have only seen the earth-based version of this experiment.
Which is subject to a great deal of wind resistance.


There was an experiment performed on a SpaceLab mission in the 80’s
That may be the closest we could actually achieve in terms of the apparatus.
And i don’t think watching the video could be considered “me observing it”.


A ‘demo’ was performed on board the ISS, however no data was collected.
And again, i was not in space to see this firsthand.


So the best i have to go on is hand-released toys, which cannot be measured.
(and no, watching frames on a consumer grade camera is not a measurement of momentum)


And fixed versions, which can be measured, but are missing 1 axis of freedom
and subject to friction.


the Chaos Pendulum does a much better job as a test apparatus


Momentum is always conserved. This is never violated.
But is derived from the energy of the system.
You will not “create” energy by imparting momentum in one part of the system
then extracting it in another.

A common misinterpretation of the cylinder w spheres
Is to measure the rotational velocity of cylinder
and try to apply that velocity to the spheres, at a greater radius


This is not what occurs


The spheres lag behind, as depicted in the arc of the strings

Well; I will start by agreeing with part of what you said. “Momentum is always conserved. This is never violated.”

But momentum is not derived from energy. Momentum is derived from the application of force or from previously existing momentum. That is what Newton’s Laws of Motion are about. 

Consumer grade cameras are certainly sufficient to measure momentum; probably 100 times better than any means Newton or Galileo had. Almost every American carry in their pocket a camera that is superior to even the most professional cameras of 30 or even 20 years ago. Video cameras have frame by frame evaluation software and incredible sharpness and speed.

Of course, you can start the motion in the middle or anywhere you choose. You are the experimenter you can do what you want. I choose to start the experiment with a 5 kg block moving right at 5 m/sec. And I choose to collide it with a string (weighted on both ends) that has a mass of 5 kg (two 2.5 kg pucks) and is moving to the left at 5 m/sec. This startup will cost 50 N applied for 1 sec. At the end of the experiment, I suspect we will have 5 kg moving 10 m/sec; and this also is the motion cause by 50 N applied for 1 second. 

There is no arc in the strings of the ‘cylinder and spheres’ the spheres do not lag behind. They can move violently as they capture the momentum of the massive cylinder.
