Inertia Wheel, is it possible to use inertia for transportation?
67The idea
Have you ever imagined how can a vehicle or aircraft move without the use of wheels, jets or propeller. It must have been really facinating to see something moving without any external moving parts that is used to move the entire vehicle. This idea has been in the minds of our modern day designers and inventors but no one has ever come up with an idea that actually works. Some say that it is totally impossible to create such thing because it may break some rules in physics and that cannot be posibble.
How does it work?
for you to get the idea, you should test it out your self TRY IT OUT!!!!!
First sit in a chair that can rotate and has multi directional wheels (can move in all directions) try to put heavy object on you hands and do a swimming motion, make sure that you move you hands as far as you can and as close as you can. try if you can move the chair in a straight direction without you foot touching the floor or any other objects
Next is spinning your chair, find out a way on how to do this. and if you are successfull in doing so, you have poven that inertia can be used for transportation, pretty easy right?
People who know a lot in science and physics knows that an object can only be moved by an equal and opposite force pushing or pulling it in an opposite direction. The best example for this is the space rocket. A rocket is lifted the exploding gass in the bottom of the rocket creating an upward force that is greater than the mass of the rocket thus creating lift, The greater the force of the explosion, the faster the rocket will go up. . . . . In a Inertia wheel we can use the force of inertia to create a forward force to the same thing as how the rocket is propelled into the sky
How is that posibble?
If you know how inertia works on a wheel, then you know that there is an outward force acting in the outer part of the wheel it's self. There are two types of inertia acting on the spinning wheel lets say its A and B, -A- is the one that is acting on the rotation of the wheel and causing the wheel to spin (spinning is an infinite motion and is only stopped by a opposing force or friction) -B- is the one that is pulling the wheel apart from the center outwards. HERES HOW WE CAN DO IT
Lets say we disrupt the motion of inertia in the wheel. lets combine the two motions of inertia acting on the wheel but how can we do that?. . . . .as how everyone knows, wheels are circular and can move only in a circular motion. the inertia wheel i designed is not actually a wheel but a moving object in a distorted circular motion. . . . . .
The best design that i have ever thought of is a rotating wheel, that has eight arms that has a weight at each end that can move in or out from the center of the object. When the weight is closer to the center, it takes less force to turn the whole object but if the weight is moved away from the center, then it will take more energy to turn the whole object
If you see the picture of the idea, you will see that the principle is the same as how a ice skater slows of speed up his spin,
If the arms of the wheel will move closer and farther from the center, it will disrupt the distribution of weight througout the wheel. If you control that distortion of weight, and make the arms pop out at a fixed stationary point as the wheel spins. It will make one side heavier and the other lighter, and if you see how the forces of inertia will act on the wheel. You will see that there is a possibility that the wheel will move because of the difference in weight on both of its sides
The only thing comes to my mind where we can use this idea, is a space bike. . . . all powered by muscle and do not require air, propulsion and traction
The idea came to me when i saw a video of guy in the NASA space station and he is doing this swimming in space thing and he actually moved form one place to another without touching anything, and that amazed me!!

yes you are right. but an object will loose its weight in space but it will retain its mass.

The inertial wheel may well work but not in space, no gravity so no inertia. Weights falling is due to GRAVITY
