What is an electric field?  What are its mechanical properties and interactions?

a) Has the Earth an electric field?

I asked the question first. 
Please define electric field and its properties as you understand it.

P.S.
Just because a question is fundamental, does not mean that it is simple.

plz whats all this useless garbage I see, plz refrain from posting if you have no electronic schematics or videos to share from experiments made. I am trying to follow the topic but theres some garbage all over the place.

lets keep this short and sweet and to the point, in respect to others.

Plz do not respond or quote this post, do not wish to add more chit chat.

Do you really want to discuss such stuff on OU forum?
Most people here will not understand it anyway and soon start objecting to too much abstraction and too little engineering....and they probably would be correct.

Well, if made on a specific thread, who cares?! If at least 2 people are interested and could one or a other day someone else be interested. "Of the Very Nature Of Space, Time, Energy and Matter", is that a name you would approve or have you a better name, dear Verpies

@ Khwartz

See, I told you .  Please make another thread if you don't want to annoy people like ARMCORTEX.
Any subject name you find suitable is fine with me including "On the Very Nature Of Space, Time, Energy and Matter".

In energetic devices, you don't have any such medium, unless you postulate an ephemeral and unmeasurable Aether - a concept that has been tried and failed.

Not entirely true... but further evidences was convenient denied. See here:

(MEG replication videos)

I wonder what would Hoppy's skuldugery detector notice about these videos.
There are many unnecessary cuts in those videos and the handling seems unnatural, however I have to give him good credits for turning the device around while it is running, at the end of the second video.

Non-members cannot open this attachment.  Repost it here.

Also reminds me of Hendershot solenoids and magnets...

Hendershot incorporates acoustic / mechanical vibrations - this device does not (or they are not seen / heard )

The patent is based on 3-6 foot iron rod 2-3 inches in diameter;

That 140 year old patent seems to be somewhat related to those videos.
It is difficult to buy iron rods nowadays (steel is not a problem, but that's not the same)

was thinking since it's just high inductance to low inductance could be 2 cross coupled transformers; that failed for me; maybe has to be an open magnetic path between the two... so a couple ferrite rods maybe...

When you don't know the Modus Operandi, you can only guess.

Now the question is where does all that energy go after pulling out red hot screwdriver

It depends what the watt meter shows. When the watt meter shows less energy consumed than the heat coming from the screwdriver suggests then something here is not in accordance with the known laws of physics. Otherwise the energy that the watt meter reads is perhaps converted to a magnetic field when the screwdriver is out. Anyway strange things are reported constantly when playing with induction hobs.

Hmmm ...

As no one here seems to have an advanced idea on this subject:

The wire of a transformer's secondary coil is also »already conductive«. Nevertheless I can get current out of it when connecting both ends together.

That is different because in that case we have a time a time varying magnetic field that does work by pushing the charges away.
In your pot/cage system, the work was supposed to be done by the attraction of separated opposite charges coming together.

But we do have a time varying component: it is the closing and opening (electronically) of the Faraday cage that creates incoming waves of an otherwise static electric field.

Can we convert a static magnetic field into a varying magnetic field without the consumption of (much) energy? I don't think so, but maybe, who knows.

Can we convert a static electric field into a varying electric field without the consumption of (much) energy? Since contrary to a static magnetic field a static electric field can be shielded easily, therefore I think it is more likely that this could work.

On Kapanadze's table there is a metal box. By definition a box made of metal is a Faraday cage. No doubt about that. Kapanadze's box is always closed, that's for sure, no moving parts. The outside of that box is connected to a wire, also for sure. Most likely the wire on the outside is connected to the ground. What's left is the inside of that box. So what if the inside of that box is connected to something like a coil or a capacitor (resonant LC circuit)? Could this perhaps create a special physical effect that we have missed so far?

Wouldn't a Faraday cage with two connections, one at the inside and one at the outside (see below), be a nice novel electronic element?

Of course extern and intern pins are connected low-ohmic with each other. But this is also true for a coil. And no one would say, because of this, that a coil cannot have any effect on the circuit it is connected to. Could it be that due to the incoming electric field waves an apparent resistance (like in the wire of a coil) is created in the walls of the Faraday cage?

Hence more ideas are welcome what this new electronic part could do when connected properly to an electronic circuit.

P.S.: Since we don't know what an electric field actually is, then maybe it doesn't matter that we also don't know what a magnetic field actually is, does it?

Michelson-Gale experiment from this article, simply measures the rotational speed of the Earth using the Sagnac Effect in a circular interferometer.

The Sagnac Effect in a circular loop can be understood as follows:
According to Special Relativity, the speed of light is independent of the speed of its source. 
When the interferometer loop is rotating with the Earth, the emitter & detector also move with the Earth during the transit time of counter-propagating light beams. The backwards-propagating beam covers less distance than the forwards-propagating beam and arrives earlier at the moving detector. This creates a shift in the interference pattern. The shift of the interference fringes is thereby proportional to the angular velocity of the whole interferometer.  The axis of rotation does not have to be inside the enclosed loop area.

Fiber Optic Gyros function according to the same principle, and they can sense rotation regardless of the orientation of their axis (e.g. horizontal as well as vertical).
The circular relay of GPS radio signals around Earth is subject to the the same Sagnac Effect as well.

As you can see these experiments do not constitute evidence that space is filled with an all-pervading fluid that slows down light because it does not rotate with the Earth.

The space of our daily lives is just a reference system created by gravitating observers.
