Zusammenfassung: | Involving mysterious gravity and mystical energy, an adjustable, educational, structural model incorporates an object suspended from a frame in various ways with flexible line, and instrumented with masses connected to it by springs. The structure functions to transfer forces of nature and man into motion, and motion into deflection of the springs, that both sense and suppress motion. Changing the structure modifies its behavior in unusual ways. Sensors don't sense, objects don't bounce, and motion doesn't change, as expected. Adding weights to a swinging object, which falls freely along its arcing path, does not change the coasting rate, thus verifying Newton's famous laws of motion. Testing the behavior and monitoring the health of the structural model dramatically demonstrates the radiant, vibrant, communicant, dynamic nature and behavior of energetically interacting people and things, and how forces involved in transfers of energy animate the world. |
